About this listen

The Inquisition is the most powerful and secretive organisation within the Imperium. Its agents, the Inquisitors, are the last line of defence for mankind. Gregor Eisenhorn, dedicated servant of the Inquisition, takes to the field again in three audio dramas: 'Regia Occulta', 'Master Imus's Transgression' and 'Thorn Wishes Talon'.

'Regia Occulta' finds him on a world wracked by ethereal storms and haunted by a terrifying beast. In 'Master Imus's Transgression', the Inquisitor investigates the mysterious affair of a mild-mannered clerk who confesses to a crime. Gideon Ravenor, once Eisenhorn's pupil, is now crippled and confined to a life support chair. He uses his powerful psychic talents to enact the Emperor's will. When he receives a mysterious message, Ravenor and his loyal followers travel to a distant world where they battle fierce cultists. But what are the cultists looking for? And what is the meaning of the message: Thorn Wishes Talon?

Great story, audio off

Great set of short stories. High production value with thematic background noise. The background noise was too loud, however, and I found the narrator and characters very difficult to hear during certain parts of the book.

Not a good experience

Firstly if you want this story without the ambience they put into the audio just go listen to The magos book.

I’m not saying it’s everyone’s experience but i’d like to imagine that people who read or listen to fantasy books are capable of imagining a scene painted by a skilled author, so putting in background music and ambient noises totally takes me out of my focus of the story, I’m struggling to focus on the narration over the background they play for ambience.

not a fan of the sound effects

these are stories I've already heard the voice actor did a great job at voicing eisenhorn but the sound effects for everything I did not enjoy and made it hard to finish this book

One-Shot Wonder

Neat story, excellent performance as always - I would recommend it if you’re really jonesing for some WH40K, but it’s not one I’ll be relistening to.

Copy of another book.

This book is not worth getting. It’s a shortened version of another book and just as expensive.
