Audio Review // Horus Heresy Grey Angel by John French

I bloody loved the Night Lords story, so I had to jump back in, but this time we're heading into the early days of the Grey Knights.

Grey Angel is short, packed with Horus Heresy lore, Dark Angels, divided loyalties and enough Loken goodness to keep me happy.

My latest audiobook review is now ready for your review.

Audio Review // Child of Night by John French

Eeek. I love a Night Lords story.

I've been wanting to get back into this Legion for a while, so when I spotted Child of Night by John French, I was hoping for something that would give me a little more of the Night Lords beyond being the scary villains lurking in the background.

Audiobook Review // The Haar by David Sodergren

Ancient sea creature. Elderly woman. Bloody horrible body horror. And somehow… a love story.

I went looking for some contemporary folk horror and The Haar by David Sodergren kept appearing everywhere.

So I gave it a listen.

And bloody hell, I enjoyed it.

A slimy creature, spectacularly gruesome deaths, a surprisingly emotional relationship and a story that has me wondering how I can steal the whole bloody concept for Sector 102.

Audio Review // The Watcher by Christian Z. Dunn

What happens when you send the Space Wolves to spy on Konrad Curze? Probably nothing good...

The Watcher is a short, brutal Horus Heresy audio tale that uncovers the fate of a Watch Pack sent to keep an eye on the Night Haunter. It's dark, nasty and wonderfully Night Lords, and this fan of Curze's twisted Legion enjoyed every minute. Find out why this little 20-minute story earned a big thumbs up from Peps!

Audio Review // Crime Chronicles: Stranger Than Truth by David Bishop

What happens when a fictional serial killer steps out of the pages of a book and starts murdering people in Mega-City One? Crime Chronicles: Stranger Than Truth brings back one of my favourite oddities, Slick Dickens, in a wonderfully twisted Judge Dredd mystery. I've also been thinking about how this whole idea could sneak its way into Sector 102... because apparently I can't read a Judge Dredd story anymore without stealing ideas for my own world!

Audio Review // Eye of Terra: The Final Compliance of Sixty-Three Fourteen by Guy Haley

The Final Compliance of Sixty-Three Fourteen surprised me. Rather than focusing on Horus himself, Guy Haley gives us a planetary governor facing an impossible choice: betray the Emperor or watch his world be crushed by the Warmaster. A short, character-driven story that shows the very human cost of the Horus Heresy. A fitting end to my journey through Eye of Terra.

Audio Review // The Herald of Sanguinius by Andy Smillie

Could I actually be turning into a Blood Angels fan? The Herald of Sanguinius is another fantastic short story from Andy Smillie, proving that you don't need explosive battles to tell a compelling Warhammer tale. Set during the uneasy days of Imperium Secundus, it's packed with tension, character development, and fascinating lore that left me wanting a full novel. Here's why this twenty-minute audio drama made such an impression.

Audio Review // Eye of Terra: Sins of the Father by Andy Smillie

A story may only last a few minutes, but that doesn't mean it can't leave an impression. Sins of the Father offers a thoughtful glimpse into the mind of Sanguinius as he reflects on the strengths, flaws, and uncertain future of his beloved Blood Angels. It may be too short to recommend as a standalone purchase, but for Horus Heresy fans it's a fascinating character piece that's well worth experiencing.

Book Review: Horus Heresy - Master of the First

Master of the First is a tense Dark Angels audio drama that swaps explosive battles for political intrigue and shifting loyalties on Caliban. Gav Thorpe once again proves he understands the First Legion better than most, delivering a compelling story of Luther, Astelan, and the seeds of betrayal.
