À propos de cet audio

A Baggit and Clodde Novel

A ratling and an ogryn aren't the best-matched pair, but in the crime-ridden heart of Varangantua, anything goes—at least, when there's a big score to be had.

Listen to it because

This is first full-length novel featuring the characters Baggit and Clodde from the audio drama Dredge Runners. Follow the duo as they hunt for a treasure that could answer all of their problems.

The story

Baggit is the fast-talking ratling with an eye for the big score. Clodde is the ogryn with a heart of gold and a head full of dreams. These abhuman deserters-turned-criminals operating in the city of Varangantua have crossed the wrong man for the last time—and now they’re on the run…

At least, that is, until Baggit learns of a score that could pay their debts and save their skins—the Wraithbone Phoenix, a fabled treasure rumoured to be hidden aboard a voidship recently scheduled for decommission. But Baggit and Clodde aren’t the only ones with eyes on the prize. When word gets out, every thief in the Dredge is going to be gunning for the Phoenix. Does Baggit have the cunning to find the treasure and get out alive, or will someone finally cash in the bounty on his head?

This may be my favourite written 40k book. I never felt lime i was listening tk an advert the way other books like Infinite and the Divine can be whenni hear about how cool the Catacomb Command Barge or whatever is. The book is pulpy fun its not going to win any literature awards but the discourse on oppression, opulence, and class is quite nuanced for a Warhammer/pulp book, and this was thoroughly elevated by the voice actors/director/editor skills. Particularly the performance really highlights the snivelling dredge overseer against the ship captain from the start. Ill probably make a whole reddit post about that soon!

Holy heck this was fun

An insightful look into the lives of abhumans, gangers, and the citizens of hive cities across the imperium, packaged around a delightful heist story, and filled with memorable characters. Baggit and Clodde might be two of my new favourites in the 41st millennium, *especially* Clodde. Hell, the book is worth picking up for Clodde alone!

Exceptional quality from cover to cover!
