Publisher's summary

A Warhammer Crime Anthology.

Return to the mean streets of Varangantua for another taste of just how grim life can be for the average Imperial citizen in the 41st Millennium.

Listen to it because....

Seemingly disconnected stories from some of your favourite authors weave together into a nightmarish glimpse of desperation and poverty, and the powerful elite who keep it that way.

The story:

Varangantua is in turmoil.

After the district of Korsk is obliterated in a fiery cataclysm, the city’s enforcers must pick up the pieces. As sanctioner teams comb the wreckage for survivors, dogged probators such as Agusto Zidarov and Lycia Calix seek to uncover the truth about what happened. Their stories become intertwined with those of petty criminals and desperate citizens, even drawing the vaunted attention of agents beyond Alecto itself, painting a picture of sprawling conspiracy.

But while the calamity means death and destitution for many, others take advantage of the chaos to gain wealth or position within the city’s byzantine hierarchies. With Varangantua’s place in the wider Imperium at stake, will the truth about the disaster come to light, or will it be buried in the rubble along with thousands of bodies?

This Warhammer Crime anthology contains seven brand-new stories featuring both new and established characters from the city-sprawl of Varangantua.

Contents:

  • 'The Bones of the Martyrs' by Jude Reid
  • 'Carrion Call' by Noah Van Nguyen
  • 'Against Entropy' by Guy Haley
  • 'Servant of the Righteous' by Graham McNeill
  • 'Skin Deep' by Darius Hinks
  • 'Angels in the Gutter' by Alec Worley
  • 'Outside Powers' by Chris Wraight

Narrated by Helen Keeley, Phillip Sacramento, Richard Reed, Tom Alexander, Greg Jones, Harry Myers, and Charles Armstrong. Running time is 10 hours and 55 minutes (approx).

Fantastic collection of great stories!

I loved every novella in here. Really gave a good idea of daily life on an imperial planet. Also loved the cameos by characters we already knew.

The greats

This group of authors is awesome. It’s a great story of conspiracy and a great addition to the 40K crime series.

a really great culmination of stories

hope they continue to expand these stories separately and slowly build up the scale to eventually have all these characters meet up.

What would be so awesome is if these crime stories are actually laying the ground work for a little revolution and Alecto becoming independent to the imperium.

Starts strong, dips, finishes well

A collection of related stories set in Vanrangantua. Warhammer crime has been great overall and this really had some awesome additions to the setting. A few are less "crimey" and more warhammery, but thats okay. One or 2 stories in the middle felt a little slow but overall I enjoyed the collection, and the varied performances are all outstanding.

More Warhammer Crime

I’m not really into most spin-off type stories but listening to each of the warhammer crime novels has me very invested in the story of Varangantua. The Vorbis Conspiracy is all about how Alecto is starting to be noticed by the wider imperium and setting up a particular character towards the end.

Great stories

Not a bad book at all, reading a little bit at a time allowed me to enjoy it more than usual.

Must read for warhammer crime fans.

I love the stories of Varangantua along with the interesting characters and intrigue. If you’re a fan of those stories then don’t sleep on this one. If you haven’t read the other warhammer crime stories start with those before this one. There are a lot of references and characters you’ll miss otherwise.

This was great, like a grim dark candy with layers

With Baggit and Clodde in the center, yeah that was nice!
Wrapped up nicely, great job
