A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

Khemet, a disgraced praetorian charged with protecting her tomb world as it slumbers, is roused to action once more. This is her chance to prove she is meant for greater things. She will stop at nothing to see it done.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

It's a chance to see the Necron Empire in a new way. Join a lowly cryptek with lofty ambitions and a praetorian suffering from the worst punishment imaginable – can they work together to reclaim a Necron planet now infested with humans?

THE STORY

As the Necron Empire sleeps, the Triarch praetorians watch and wait.

Khemet has guarded the tombs of her people for millions of years, patiently waiting for the day when the numberless legions of the dead will rise again. As they finally begin to stir, old ambitions and treacheries are roused with them.

Betrayed and imprisoned, dogged by the shame of a terrible failure, Khemet has endured the gravest punishment Necron ingenuity can conjure. Now she is free, offered a single chance to restore her honour and reclaim her standing. For Khemet to rise, a world must die.

Written by Jonathan D Beer. Narrated by Gabrielle Nellis-Pain. Runtime 10 hours and 2 minutes approx.

I loved the portrayal of Necrons in this book! It was excellent! The only problem was that they would introduce an antagonist, to then kill them off in less than a chapter… I love the space marine part, but there’s no real scary antagonist. Overall if you like Necrons, you will absolutely love this book!!!!!

Very good, for Necrons

Hard to follow in the steps of ‘The twice dead king’ and ‘The infinite and the divine’. Tomb World has some glimmers of excitement in the back third, but failed to grab my interest with the necron characters and their personalities.

Some fun story bits once your chew through the opening act

An interesting topic in 40k, Necron protagonists aren't very common so it's nice to see a story from their perspective. it's no Infinite and divine but it is a good listen if the topic interests you.

Necrons!!

The story started out quite good and progressed well through the first and second act. By the end of the second act the book seemed kind of rushed. The third act had a major change in motive that seemed out of place for one of the main characters. The end of book didn't sit right with me and left many questions unanswered, as if a handful of chapters were cut to enable a quick ending.

This would have been better as a serial of 4 or 5 short stories rather than a single novel.

Book Seems Rushed and Unfinished

Loved getting to see both the Imperial Perspective and reaction to a Necron uprising and the Necron perspective and Political machinations. this book stands tall amongst good company as some of the best Xenos writing in 40k.

Great Story
