About this listen

Book 10 in the Gaunt's Ghosts series.

Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt returns with the Tanith First to a world that he promised to save, only to find that years of war and the ever-present taint of Chaos may have damaged it beyond redemption.

Listen to it because....

It's a triumphant return to Gereon. Gaunt promised to liberate the planet from the forces of Chaos, and now he's back to keep his word. But as is ever the way for the Tanith, tragedy will be mingled with triumph as the war on Gereon grinds on...

The story:

Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt spent a year fighting as part of the underground resistance on the enemy-held world of Gereon. When he left, he promised that he would bring the forces of the Imperium to liberate Gereon's citizens from their oppressors. Now he has returned, a crusade army at his back, but he finds a world devastated by war and a people irrevocably damaged by the taint of Chaos. Now Gaunt must fight to save Gereon not only from the enemy, but from the Imperium itself.

Without spoiling anything, I can confidently say this is one of the better Ghost novels I've listened to. if You've listened to the series up to this point, I highly highly recommend it.

A very strong story in a series full of em

Arguably the best series for Warhammer 40k fans. Dan Abnett and Toby Longworth are a legendary duo. No author encapsulates Warhammer so well. Added with Toby's performance it's a must have.

If you have gone this far don't wait it's worth it

tidied up the story arch. overall decent but a little flat on the landing. still it's Gaunt and his Ghosts don't what they do best.

Toby Longworth gives another excellent performance
