About this listen

A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

The galactic core is beset by warp storms of a fury the Leagues of Votann have not seen for ten millennia. With both the Imperium of Man and the powers of the warp encroaching further and further onto the Kin’s territories, war reigns supreme amongst the coreward stars.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Hear what happens when a Hernkyn Prospect leader and her companions are plunged into a venture beyond their wildest expectations, and find themselves set against an ancient, deadly foe guarding a mysterious but magnificent prize.

THE STORY

Myrtun Dammergot, leader for the Kindred of the Eternal Starforge, is in her element, exploiting the unending conflict and living a life of adventure, without the unwanted burden of responsibility.

But when a messenger from her Kindred’s Hold ship brings news that upends everything she knows, responsibility, challenges, and opportunity come knocking.

Took em long enough

It’s fine, but for how long it took them to make this, I was hoping for more. It introduces you to a character for one of the great leagues, shows you the relationship the kin have towards each other, and sets up a future plot.

Not bad not great

It just felt like a pretty generic story that gave little story or real world building to the Votann faction. First 3/4 of the book were very slow and the last 1/4 had an alright climax with some corny moments. Any non Imperium factions always get subpar books so they are consistent in that much.

its a factions first book

the first part of the book is very slow and unguided. it spends a lot of time establishing the kin and their society, and while I like this from a lore perspective, I can't deny it feels more like a codex than a standalone book. The main plot doesn't kick in until about a third to halfway through. From that point to just before the end it's good. interesting, intense, and entertaining, but the ending was so so rushed. The falling action was almost entirely consolidated to the epilogue, which was very underwhelming. Overall, I enjoyed it, but I dont think id listen to it again. As for the narration, she was good, but the sound mixing was off. some lines were way louder than others and there was a bit of choppiness.

Good look into the life of a kin

This really should have been released with the Leagues of Votann army. So much more information on the life of thenKindreds. Great narration though sometimes the voices blurred together. All in all a great start to the Leagues of Votann black library

Narration is dry

Story is meh but at least it’s some form of Votann lore. Narration is very dry

Slow start, but a fine story

Bit of a slow start but gets going towards the middle. If like me you want to know more about that League's society and thoughts, it is 5/5. if you want story about the kin, 3/5. they aren't bad but aren't that compelling.

Excited for more Votann except….

I DNF’d this one so bear that in mind but I couldn’t handle the narrator anymore or the terrible main character. Very cool getting to see the Leagues and the battles made me want models but otherwise I just couldn’t listen anymore
