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...

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: Eye of Terra: Red-Marked by Nick Kyme

Audio Review // Massacre by Aaron Dembski-Bowden
Massacre is a fast, brutal snapshot of the Night Lords at their peak. Aaron Dembski-Bowden drops Talos and First Claw into the carnage of the Dropsite Massacre, delivering dark humour, ruthless efficiency, and unapologetic violence. It’s everything you want from a Night Lords story, sharp, savage, and far too short once it gets going.
Audio Review // Wolf Mother by Graham McNeill
This marks the final audio drama in my run through War Without End, and Wolf Mother absolutely promises to go out swinging. An intense rescue mission involving Alivia Sureka and Severian.
Audio Review // Horus Heresy: Chirurgeon by Nick Kyme
Excited to dive into another Fabius Bile story. As one of my favourite villains of 40k, it is always enjoyable to experience the 30k "Loyal" version. I'm keen on Reynold's version of him, so I genuinely hope Kyme does him Justice.

Audio Review // The Harrowing by Rob Sanders
