Publisher's summary

Book 4 in the Eisenhorn series

Inquisitor Eisenhorn makes his triumphant return in a brand new novel, collected together with every one of the short stories starring the tortured servant of the Throne.

Listen to It Because:

It's a brand new Eisenhorn novel by Dan Abnett! What other reason do you need!

The Story:

Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn has spent his life stalking the darkest and most dangerous limits of the Imperium in pursuit of heresy and Chaos. But how long can a man walk that path without succumbing to the lure of the Warp? Is Eisenhorn still a champion of the Throne, or has he been seduced by the very evil that he hunts?

Warhammer 40,000’s most beloved anti-hero finally returns in a stunning new novel that pits him against his oldest and most constant foe, and forces him to confront the true darkness of his own self.

For the first time ever, the Black Library presents the definitive casebook of Gregor Eisenhorn, collecting all of Dan Abnett’s celebrated Inquisitor short stories into a single epic volume. The stories, some of which have never been in print before, have been compiled and introduced by the author to serve as an indispensable companion to the acclaimed Eisenhorn trilogy, and to act as an essential prologue to The Magos, a brand new, full-length Eisenhorn novel.

Excellent, Dan Abnett really does 40k right.

Love Dan Abnett and everything he does in the 30k/40k universe. Hope we get to find out how this ends.

A web of stories intertwined into one big ball.

The short stories are like memories to reflect back to before a big decision. It is recommended that you don't binge listen/read the whole book, but instead enjoy the short stories for what they are, and then progress through the main story at your own pace. It is quite interesting how even the most mundane aspects of our lives can affect our future, and it is our job to both learn from it, and become better as people.

The characters have great arcs here, and you'll go from being mildly annoyed to being proud and happy about them. Even characters previously dubbed as static, stoic, and of lacking emotional skills show new face here. Definitely a standout book in the series, and it's a must read/listen for anyone that has previously enjoyed this series.

Dan Abnett took a step into the unknown, made risks, came up with new concepts, and the result is a fulfilling tale of about as much personal growth you can write about emotionless demon hunters. Do not be alarmed, though. There is nothing new here, at least to humanity. Quite the opposite, this book is one of the most grounded and life like works in maybe the whole 40k universe. So much so, that this is a book I would recommend to my mom.

Great book, but maybe the weakest Eisenhorn book.

I really enjoyed it the short stories were really interesting, some of them feature ravenor, over Eisenhorn so I don’t know if I should’ve read those first i feel like maybe I should have. But if your a fan of the series then I think it’s required reading, it just wasn’t quite as compelling as the original trilogy (which are great).

A must for Eisenhorn fans.

To avoid spoilers, I can say why this one is a must-read for Eisenhorn fans - but it’s intensely clever in construction, pacing, and the characters are, as always with Abnett, masterfully brought to life. Toby Longworth does a phenomenal job with the performance. Don’t miss this one.

Another fine work.

Everything about this is still amazing. Without spoiling anything. I loved the point of view that the main book was written in, it brings new light of how eisenhorn is really viewed when he is older.

Halfway through the book. Already my favourite.

The title of this review speaks for itself. This is also the first book i leave a review on - for it to be one that I have yet to even finish, is enough reason to give it a 5/5 rating.

Great

I think this is the best of the Eisenhorn series. It felt like Dan will be writing another one after this.

Out of time and space!

I don't think I have the words to describe this masterpiece. If you like Eisenhorn and Toby Longworth reading of the books, then this is a must listen. Excellent narration, excellent writing, and excellent interweaving of stories makes this a must listen.
