About this listen

As the flames of treachery spread throughout the Imperium, Horus plots to subvert or destroy all those who would stand against him.

On Mars, home world of the Mechanicum priesthood, the great manufactory-cities have long produced much of the weaponry required for the expeditionary fleets across the galaxy - making the world invaluable to whoever controls it in the coming war.

Now, the Warmaster's agents begin to stoke the fires of rebellion, turning the loyalist forges and the mighty Titan Legions against one another. And, with whispers spreading of an ancient terror lurking beneath the Red Planet's surface, the Dark Mechanicum rises....

Mechanicum was masterfully written and provoked epic scenes of fire and brimstone. It felt like another world within our solar system and each character had its own unique perspective. It dives into the minds of studios creators and only pauses intrigue for excitement.

Mechanicum casts you into war.

A riveting story, with excellently developed full, characters who fit perfectly together to make this one of the best books I have ever heard. The author is just mad talented, and the narrator is smooth and easily engaged with the imagination. Loved the tension between faith and logic. The book made me feel like me an Adept of the Mechanicum ... loyal the the Emperor of Mankind, of course.

Wow

Loved it unveiled some of the big secrets of the 40k verse and how the Emperor has manipulated mankind for Millennium.

One of the better titles in this series so far.

The overall writing/plot line was good, if not a bit predictable. The adjoining story of a noosphericly enhanced base human and her friends was on the YA side with dialogue, but the level of world building and characterization makes this a great read for any Warhammer fan. Plus, giant mech fights and mostly believable character motivations make for a still new-to-the-lore friendly book.

The content is excellent and the author's grasp of language as an artform is superb.

BUT the audio balancing between the narrator's wide-ranging voices (great talent) is HORRIFIC. I have to crank the volume to hear some characters and then have my eardrums blasted by others. Rebalance the audio plz!!

Excellent storytelling! Audio needs help...

Great story with an amazingly descriptive vision of Mars in the future. If you ever played the game Mechassault, you'll also love this book.

All praise the Omnisiah!
