About this listen

A Warhammer Horror novel

Three travellers are drawn to the Reverie, the wound in the world of the Angels Resplendent. Knight, poet, scholar, each will face their shadows amidst a deeper darkness....

Listen to it because: Peter Fehervari's novels always have a rich vein of dark terror - now he's been unleashed in a Warhammer Horror novel that will take the sinister side of the 41st Millennium and turn it into nightmare fuel for you.

The story: exalting war and art in harmony, the warrior-artisans of the Angels Resplendent have forged a radiant haven amidst a blighted galaxy. But an ancient sin stains their honour - a wound in their world that will never heal. Ignorant souls would call it a forest, but those who watch over it know better.

Nothing natural grows in the Reverie’s snow-swept glades or wanders amongst the unnatural things that do, save for the intruders who trespass on its pain. Some seek revelation or redemption, others dream of winning a place amongst the Resplendent, but all come because they must.

Three travellers are drawn into the conspiracy that wards the wound - a knight haunted by his lost humanity, an aging poet who refuses to go gently into the night and a scholar who yearns to redeem mankind. All must face their shadows in the Reverie, but only one shall gaze upon its heart, where a deeper darkness beats.

Written by Peter Fehervari. Narrated by John Banks.

40K Horror At Its Finest

Peter Fehervari has written one of the most unique, intriguing, and enthralling 40k books I’ve read in over 20 years. While it may not feature the big set piece battles typical of 40k it is something unique and deals with a deeper and more insidious battle that underpins the whole 40k universe. I found myself staying up late and getting up early just to listen to this book. It’s a shame more of Fehervari’s catalogue isn’t available as audiobooks…

Great book not much horror

Yes I do recommend this book especially if you like warhammer 40k. Not sure how this book qualifies as horror or terror. It’s a fun read overall and helps expand the universe of warhammer

Another solid entry by Peter Fehervari

I will start out by saying that Fehervari books aren’t for everyone they are a bit different from most 40K books. They have less action and a more in-depth look into the character and the metaphysics of the universe. All Peter's works are connected in what he calls the “Dark Coil”. The Reverie is an in-depth look on to the Angles Resplendent Chapter an interesting and unique Blood Angles successor, more interested in art and individuality than war. The characters are dealing with the titular Reverie a rift in reality that threatens the entire chapter. The horror in this book is not as overt as other horror stories this is more subtle and existential. If you like Peter Fehervari's other books you will like this one. I am glad to see him finally getting an audiobook of his works it makes them easy to understand.

Resplendent

What lies behind the veneer of enlightenment and artistic sophistication of Malpertuis? Three travellers make their way to the homeworld of the Angels Resplendent, all with their own motives and desirers. But no matter what one's intentions are all get tangled up in the Darkness that Coils around these seemingly enlightened sons of Sanguinius.

I don't quite understand why some reviewers don't see the horror in this novel. It's unsettling, dark and knows how to create an atmosphere of hopelessness amid splendour. Not all horror is explicit, some is more subtle and multilayered. And Peter Fehervari is the best you'll find in this regard.

Great Story, Great Setup, Rushed Ending?

Loved the book for the most part. Does a great job setting up all these plot threads and establiahing a really interesting mystery. The last two hours of the book sees a marked increase in the action which was great. When I get towards the last hour I realized that there wasn't enough time for a proper resolution of some of the plot threads. It appears to leave off on a cliffhanger of an ending and that's not something [ enjoy without knowing that the book is a part of a series.

Brilliant

Not horror in the traditional sense. Gets into metaphysics and concepts of mind over matter. Beautifully rendered.

So it flows

The dark coil may appear entirely apart but readers familiar to the blood angels will find familiar recurring characteristics in the resplendent.

Wow, A Multi Dimensional Mind F@@k

This story has so many levels and will keep any agile mind totally occupied with figuring out its twists and turn. A great Horror addition.

fantastic and so dofferent

This doesn't feel like your standard 40k book, nor does it feel solely like horror. it's one you have to think about, go back over, consider. I highly, highly recommend reading Peter's other books, as they make this one even better, but standing alone it's a masterful story. Do not enter the reverie with expectations, let the reverie guide you.
