A great book for Orks n' Drukari enthusiasts!

Revisado: 03-08-24

Boss Blackhawk and some other gitz have a good scrap with spikey knife ears, and nary a 'umie in sight! Xenos centric stories are my favorite type of books from Black Library, and this one gives love to one of the more obscure factions. I learned more about Drukari antics from this book than I have from a dozen lore videos, and the Orky bits are great, too!

Dark Angel's daddy issues are fun.

Revisado: 01-19-24

The Story Follows the Lion as he gathers his wayward sons, a thrilling read in terms of suspense as roughly half of them might be mad.

Rock solid!

...Unlike Cadia, amirite?

Why are you all pulling out bayonets?

Any hoot, this is a good guard story. you got your three essentials for a good IG book: 1) charismatic army dudes(and dudettes) with hope's and dreams, 2) circumstances putting those Hope's and dreams in a box and shooting it, and 3) bureaucracy and other things high command fouls up.

There are those that complain about 'woke' stuff being in this book, but these are the opinions of fools, and I scoff haughtily in their general direction. This book has several characters in a dire situation, and each are shown to struggle and adapt as people would when stranded on a pebble of hell formerly called 'home'. It's got twists and turns, action a plenty, and excellent characterization. It's even got a whisp of a love story, though I'll admit that that felt a smidge tacked on, in my opinion. Even so, if that's my one critique, surely it's worth a try for any fan of Cadia.

A jolly tale fitting for any fantasy enthusiast.

Revisado: 10-24-23

In terms of tone, the book is a half step between an 80's Disney movie and some one's first DnD adventure, and I mean that in the best possible way. All the characters are a delight, the narrative has a good variety of twists and turns. Hob the Goblin has earned a spot in my heart. Good fun all around, and I look forward to the next book.

A great story of Cadian Snipers and Tau turncoats.

Revisado: 09-09-23

It's always a pleasure to read(listen?) to a good guard book. After a chaotic start, our tale shows guards in the trenches and bombed out hab blocks struggling as any good Cadian, wanna-bes or otherwise, should. Sergeant Nevak (I probably misspelled that, oh the curse of audio) feels well fleshed out and I for one would love to see more of her.

The wolves of Fenris have a jolly jaunt.

Revisado: 02-06-23

First off, I like orks more than space marines, so my bias whilst reviewing will be obvious. Second, the VAs and sound design team put their all into this and deserve every piece of praise I can deliver, especially that one guy who played the 'shadow warrior'. Loved his voice. Third, not nearly enough orks.

In all seriousness, while I enjoyed the story, it felt a little bland for all the hype around it. If you like Space Wolves, you get this book. If you don't like Space wolves, I would still recommend, but acknowledge that it's being told by one of them, and as such they try to make it sound like an epic space adaptation of Beowulf whenever they go get eggs at the store.

Possibly my favorite 40k book!

Revisado: 02-03-23

A delightful homage to the Maltese(?) Falcon, done from the view of downtrodden but likable abhumans as they deal with the inherent madness that is 40k life. Excellent VA work, rousing story, likeable characters, it's got it all! my one critique would be that there was ALOT to keep track of, but with how engaging I found the book, it's practically a strength.

A collection of stories about a red clad sister.

Revisado: 08-20-22

Overall, I enjoyed this read, but it has some shaky bits. I like Sister Agitha and her sisters, their characterization was good and most of their exploits are worthy praise. However, there were bits where it dragged for me, mainly the story with the inquisitor, and some of the later ones had some 'hiccups' in the performance.

All that said, I loved every bit with the orks! the opening story had a gripping tension that got me invested almost right away, and the later story had that silly ork feeling you love to see.

A fine tale of sisters bonding. Oh, and chaos is t

Revisado: 08-02-22

First and foremost, anything Emma Gregory puts work into is top tier in my book. Secondly, this story shows how martyrs can shape the Adepta Soroitas by having a few of them tell stories to eachother, and I think that that is an amazing premise. And third, don't do Chaos, kids.

It's good to see Xeno perspectives every so often.

Revisado: 07-30-22

Full disclosure, I am not a Tau fan, but I did enjoy this tale of them. Having to contend with the unpredictable nature of both Chaos and Orks, Farsight's technology and grit makes him feel far more relateable than many actual humans from the setting. Lots of fighting, and I appreciated that as an Ork player. Also good dat dat Red Git learned how to use a real choppa.
