Audio Review // Judge Dredd: Crime Chronicle – Blood Will Tell
What happens when a Judge is sent to the Cursed Earth… and comes back looking for revenge?
In my latest audio review, I’m diving into Judge Dredd: Crime Chronicle – Blood Will Tell — a story packed with ex-Judges, mutants, Justice Department secrets and a mystery that slowly starts to unravel.
And, naturally, I’ve already started stealing ideas for Sector 102…
Is Garris Hale a villain, a victim, or something in between? Let’s find out.
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 Eagle's Talon by John French
What happens when the Imperial Fists are forced to fight in the shadows instead of standing proudly behind their walls? The Eagle's Talon is a tense, cleverly presented audio drama told through recovered vox transmissions, creating one of the most immersive Horus Heresy stories I've listened to so far. Add in some unexpected moral conflict within the Imperial Fists, and this short tale becomes a real hidden gem.
Audio Review: Eye of Terra: Red-Marked by Nick Kyme
Red-Marked follows Sergeant Aeonid Thiel as he defies orders once again to hunt down traitor activity on the fringes of Ultramar. Nick Kyme delivers a fast-paced audio drama packed with action, sharp character moments, and more of the Horus Heresy’s best maverick Ultramarine.
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.
Book Review // Horus Heresy: A Safe and Shadowed Place by Guy Haley
The last time we heard from the Night Lords fleet, they were scattered and leaderless in the wake of the disastrous Thramas Crusade. Now, a sizeable portion of the Legion find themselves drawn to a mysterious beacon on the far side of the galaxy.
Book Review // Horus Heresy: The Laurel of Defiance by Guy Haley
A victory celebration turns into a quiet crisis of faith. The Laurel of Defiance explores what happens when a Space Marine built for war is forced to face peace, politics, and doubt.
Book Review // Horus Heresy: Virtues of the sons
Amit duels Khârn and Azkaellon faces Lucius as Sanguinius's chosen sons explore the twin aspects of their nature. Are we seeing the future unfolding?
Book Review // Horus Heresy: Black Oculus by John French
Bridging the gap between Angel Exterminatus and the Battle of Tallarn, this short story focuses on the Navigators assigned to Iron Warrior Legion fleet. After their journey through the Eye of Terror, many of their number are... changed. This story also contains some hints as to the Iron Warriors motivation for their attack on Tallarn.
Book Review // Horus Heresy: Daemonology by Chris Wraight
The Death Guard have already embraced treachery, but this story follows their Primarch as he continues upon the road that will eventually doom his Legion to a plague-wracked damnation.
Audio Review: Judge Dredd: Get Karter
A revenge run to Brit-Cit, a crime boss with a death wish, and Judge Amy Steel’s final reckoning. Get Karter brings her story full circle in a tense, personal Judge Dredd audio drama — and proves once again why these Big Finish releases are so sorely missed.
Book Review // Horus Heresy All That Remains by James Swallow
Drifting through the warp with the Imperium’s broken and forgotten, one ship becomes the unlikely birthplace of a legend. When a mysterious Space Marine arrives with orders older than treason itself, the truth behind the Grey Knights begins to surface.
Audio Review: Judge Dredd – Trapped on Titan
Time for a quick audio book review. Once again it is a Big Finish production about Judge Dredd. I truly love these dramas, but they are becoming increasingly hard to find. So let’s dive into this one.
Judge Dredd: The Big Shot! (Big Finish Audio)
Judge Dredd’s worst assignment yet? Babysitting a narcissistic film director.
In The Big Shot!, Dredd trades street patrol for VIP protection — and it’s every bit as chaotic as you’d expect. A sharp, fast-paced Big Finish audio full of wit, explosions, and classic Dredd grit.
Judge Dredd: The Killing Zone — Big Finish Audio Review
“Lights. Camera. Lawbreakers.”
When a snuff holo-vid show turns Mega-City One into a betting pit of death, only one man can bring order: Judge Dredd. In The Killing Zone, Big Finish unleashes a gritty, high-stakes audio thriller where Dredd teams up with a rogue Wally Judge and the psychic powerhouse Judge Janus to take down a villain who’s turned murder into prime-time entertainment.
