Summary

An Astra Militarum Novel

A celebrated sniper of the Astra Militarum must shift her focus to commanding troops, and dealing with the complications that arise from hard decisions.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's a look into the haunted thoughts of a soldier wrestling with the complex realities of a galaxy at war. Every choice she makes has consequences for those under her command.

THE STORY

Transplant. Cadian. Sniper. Legend.

Sergeant Darya Nevic is all of these and more… but behind the stories stands a soldier haunted by the unwelcome fame her successes have brought.

During the Cadian 217th’s assault on the manufactorum world of Attruso, Darya finds herself out of her depth in a war that is fought with words as much as with weapons. As a fearsome winter closes in and her men begin to die around her, she will be forced to confront her doubts and make an impossible choice – to become the figurehead her soldiers need, or to believe the unimaginable promises of the mysterious t’au.

With the fate of her regiment in her hands, which path will she choose?

Written by Rob Young. Narrated by Colleen Prendergast. Running time 10 hours and 28 minutes (approx).

A fascinating enemy of the Imperium. Almost the dark flipside to their ideology. Some good set pieces and a intriguing POV of snipers.

My first T'au conflict.

the synopsis for Longshot kind of sets things up that don't really happen or are handled in ways that don't live up to the idea going in. this is a solid 4/5 book though and I have absolutely no qualms about the story or narrator. also I see people comparing this to Enemy at the gates and frankly that's disingenuous.

Good story but misleading synopsis
