Assassinorum: Kingmaker

Love the story and details that are included. Looking forward to hearing more stories from the Assassinorum. Read well and worth a download!

an excellent story of the shadow agents of the throne! I hope to encounter Wraith and his companions in future books

the title say it all, if you like those faction you have to listen!

brutality, intrigue and well developed characters, everything you can ask for, add on gigantic rock-em-sock-em robots, assassins and political discourse, it's a joy start to finish

Enjoyed this one. I am invested in the universe so it probably gets an extra star for that. Cold-war vibes mixed with neofuedalism. It's a fun book for Warhammer fans and coherent/well written enough that non fans can probably enjoy too, though some of it may get lost I. the weeds. Felt less like I was being Marketed to compared to other 40k books

As intimate as a knife to the throat. As epic as the shot heard around the world. Space assassins and killer robots wrapped in court intrigue. What else can you ask for ?Narrator was great too. Fantastic work.

Lot's of action, a bit of intrigue, giant knights. what's not to like. I like the one operatives shoulder injury, very relatable.

A tale full of plot and intrigue, twists and turn. A tale of assassins from three different factions of the Officio Assassinorum that must work together to kill a monarch and prevent the Knight world of Dominion from secession.

Another great insight of both the spies and their order, and the Knights of Dominion, whose tradition breeds mistrust, bloodshed and allegiances between two imperial houses.

The setting takes place at the start of the Indomitus crusade where every world, allies and oathsworn, must muster their forces for war in Guilliman's support. That couldn't be said for the world of Dominion.

The direction is simply straightforward at early start, but it gets more complex with every chapter, especially of the characters as the assassins headed for Dominion. If it was in a hard copy, you can point out who the characters are and their purpose, but in an audio format... it is a pain. Some may need to repeat certain chapters or write down notes to simply understand everything about the characters.

The narrator, Gareth Armstrong, is good at what he do. His control of tone and expression is admirable and his speaking clearly able to listen. However, there are cases that he sounded like Wall-E having sex with a Speak and Spell. Surely from the beginning of the listen, but twice or more that distinction seemed almost unnoticeable.

In conclusion, it is a good read, offers more insist both assassins and knights and their political stance and overall noteworthy action scenes. What I admire the story the most are the assassins, who they must build bonds at one another and their chemistry is enjoyable to listen to.

I could hardly put it down, so good! and the twists! Total must read

This was an incredible story with many twists and turns ! R.R did an incredible job at even making the mission focused assassins even have interesting personalities and motivations. Though on the longer side the books pacing is excellent and the world build is superb a good book to pick up.
