Story
As Guilliman, Regent of Terra, heads off to lead the Indomitus Crusade, he leaves behind a world still in turmoil, beset by cult activity. Stripped of its huge armies for the galactic offensive, recovery is precarious. The Custodians do what they can while keeping the Palace secure, and the Sisters of Silence rebuild their citadel on Luna. When the warship Phalanx returns, it seems that stability will at last be assured. However, as reconquest forces push out further into the slums, they come across signs that another mysterious foe is active.

In the course of his duty, Crowl becomes embroiled in a dark conspiracy, one that leads all the way to the halls of the Imperial Palace.

Fell times have come to the galaxy. Cadia has fallen, destroyed by the onslaught of Chaos. A Great Rift in the warp has opened, and from its depths spew daemons and the horrors of Old Night. But all hope is not lost… A hero, long absent, has returned, and with him comes the wrath of the Ultramarines reborn. Roboute Guilliman has arisen to lead the Imperium out of darkness on a crusade the likes of which has not been seen since the fabled days of the Emperor. But never before have the forces of Ruin amassed in such numbers, and nowhere is safe from despoliation.

Terra now lies within the Warmaster’s sights, the Throneworld and the seat of his father’s rule. Horus’ desire is nothing less than the death of the Emperor of Mankind and the utter subjugation of the Imperium. He has become the ascendant vessel of Chaos and amassed a terrible army with which to enact his will and vengeance. But the way to the Throne will be hard as the primarch Rogal Dorn, the Praetorian and protector of Terra, marshals the defences.

Publisher's Summary
The Custodian Guard have stood watch over the Emperor's Palace on Terra since the foundation of the Imperium. Charged with protecting the Master of Mankind from all threats, within and without, their fearsome resolve is renowned throughout the galaxy, and their golden armour is the last thing that a would-be assassin or saboteur will ever see.
Alongside the Null-maidens of the Sisters of Silence, who are anathema to psykers and sorcerers alike, there is no threat to the Golden Throne that they alone cannot vanquish...until now.

Decent Option For A WH40K Newbie
I am *not* familiar with the Warhammer Universe.. I have never played the game, discussed the system with friends, or watched an explanatory video. I am, however, an RPG gamer and a voracious consumer of SciFi and Fantasy books. The glowing reviews of this mini-series attracted me, so I thought "Why not give it a try?"
The Verdict:
Players of the game, designers/programmers, and select authors have created a complex, intriguing paradigm.. developing a Space-Opera-quality matrix of Religion, Power Dynamics, War, and History set in "our" Galaxy (far in the future) - and populating it with captivating varieties of imaginative combatants (each with different motivations, powers, weapons, and fighting styles).
[Their penchant for Latinizing names is somewhat baffling, however - 'Adeptus Mechanicus'? What's wrong with 'Robotics Cult'?]
In this novel, Chris Wraight tells a combat-heavy story, but clearly trusts his readers to either know the background or be able to quickly catch up. Yes, as a neophyte, I had to listen very carefully and some of the characters/factions had confusing motivations, but I was pretty easily able to gain understanding despite the author not spoon-feeding anything. Additionally, Wraight has crafted a well-written, well-described story with enough intrigue and action to satisfy a casual SciFi/Fantasy consumer like me. I suspect listeners knowledgeable in WH lore would get even more out of it.
Another tremendous strength of this recording: the decision to use three excellent readers (Gareth Armstrong, John Banks, and Emma Gregory) to deliver the story. It made the tale more immersive and kept me interested. Well done, Black Library.
I admit I'm still not wholly enamored with the WH40K canon, but I could easily see imaginative readers being caught up in this richly complex mythos. This 9/10 audiobook could serve as an exemplar for what the Warhammer Universe has to offer (albeit for one small segment: Imperial Custodians and Sisters of Silence during the daemon invasion at the turn of the 41st century). It also makes buying the sequel almost obligatory, but.. Spend the Credit.
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to partake of the Breakfasticus Fruitarum.

Very solid sci-fi fantasy novel
This was my first foray into the novels of the 40k universe after playing the war game for about a year or so. Very solid plot and characters and a surprising amounts of moments I found wholesome and fun, while still maintaining the grim vibe of this dark path of humanities future. Was an engaging listen the whole way through, and I never found myself bored.

Hidden Gem
soo as a huge astartes fan, sometimes these other novels can be a little slow for me. I do enjoy the action that you see in alot of those books, but this was by far one of the best audio novels I've heard in a while, the custodes were amazing to see, especially to glimpse some of their personality rather than being a golden statue that they can be written as. the sister of silence were amazing, and the High lords of Terra politics was really amazing. overall 11/10 from me.

stay away from the black library app
I purchased this audiobook along with another and an audio drama on the black library app... Due to unfortunate complications with the BL app, I had to make the purchases again; I'll gladly do so seeing as though I loved each one of my purchases that much!
I have listened to each one more than 10 times separately and may end up adding the "carrion throne" to my collection. 😏 I must be kidding myself I am definitely going to add it to my collection.
I have purchased this book four times now; only one was a gift!!
My collection is as follows:
"The master of mankind"
"The emperor's legion"
pretty soon hereafter the review "the carrion throne"
"The interrogation of Salvador Lermentov"

Great to see Black Library on audible!
I liked the story more than I expected (didn’t know what to expect though). Chris Wraight is one of my favorite BL authors- & I think his writing helped carry the book. The characters have depth to them, but the action sequences are well written & not confusing.
I know a fair amount of the story that led up to this setting- so I can’t recommend just blindly diving in.

Surprisingly compelling 40k Novel
I've seen the same sentiment hit other reviews on here, but just wanted to say that I figured I'd like this book but was happily surprised by how much I really did enjoy it. Good if you liked the sisters of silence in the 30k books, the custodians or just the Dark Imperium series (set between Guillimans crusade back to Terra and Dark Imperium though largely centered on other characters).
