About this listen

A Space Marine Conquests audiobook.

As Roboute Guilliman’s Indomitus Crusade drives across the galaxy, Ultramarines Chaplain Helios is tasked with a mission of vital importance to the reborn primarch.

Listen to It Because

New insights into the Primaris Space Marines abound, as well a look at Primarch Guilliman as he leads his great crusade to reclaim the Imperium

The Story

The age of the Dark Imperium has begun, and the human race is poised on the brink of ruin. In their darkest hour, the Emperor’s servants have achieved the impossible: the resurrection of the Primarch Roboute Guilliman. Now Lord Commander of the Imperium of Man, Guilliman marshals his forces in a desperate effort to drive back the predations of Chaos: the Indomitus Crusade. Dispatched ahead of the bulk of Guilliman’s war fleets, Chaplain Helios of the Ultramarines is entrusted by the risen primarch with a mission of vital importance. Will he achieve a crucial victory for Guilliman in time, or will a millennia-old obsession spell his doom? And just what manner of weapons will be needed to wage the war to save mankind?

Written by Ian St Martin. Narrated by Bruce Mackinnon.

great, really helps pass the time on long journeys and was a very good listen

good listening

I think I'm going to have to listen to it again. Bit hard to follow at times, not sure who is who or what is being talked about. Didn't like the voices of the chaos marines, an Iron Warrior Lord terminator shouldn't sound like an evil vazer from Aladdin. Otherwise a fairly typical black library title.

dense prose and not ideal narration

the audio was so quiet, except when the chapter titles and music cut in, that I wondered whether my phone was broken. I've listened to most of the Horus heresy and a few extra 40k books on my phone and found that a good narrator helps escalate the drama but in this case I found myself drifting out of thought. I'm not sure whether it's a story problem with too many characters diluting it like it was in 'avenging son' or a problem with the narrator failing to differentiate between bad and good clearly so the momentum didn't switch naturally. but either way in the future I think I'll stick to more established timelines where at least the names (which if we're honest are only slightly different per character without a cheat sheet) help someone follow the story

genuinely had trouble concentrating

Nicely described atmosphere and many battles!

This book is one of the better space marine conquest books, when I read the book on kindle and left my review I said that John Banks would be the ideal narrator, sadly BL didn’t listen (I did not expect them to) Bruce Mackinnon is not a bad narrator but he fails to bring the gravitas that other narrators do and at times sounds like an annoying teacher or lecturer, great book, ok narration

Iron within !

Loved the book, great look at the Ultramarines in the 42nd Millennium. I would recommend reading Roboute Guilliman’s primarch first

Great book

Narration was dry and boring, plot was boring too. Worst I’ve listened to in a while

Slow and boring

Terrible writing. Hard to get into and pretty non consequential story. Can totally skip this one and you won’t miss a thing.

Probably least compelling 40k book I have read
