About this listen

A Warhammer 40,000 audio drama boxed set.

The galaxy has changed. The Imperium is divided, and a primarch has returned - and the Ecclesiarchy, the great Imperial church - is close to civil war. Only Saint Celestine -with the aid of Inquisitor Greyfax - can stand in the way of this disaster.

Listen to it because

Two of the biggest heroes of the Dark Imperium - Saint Celestine and Inquisitor Greyfax - join forces to stop one of the most important Imperial organisations from falling into civil war in an epic four-part audio saga starring none other than Catherine Tate!

The story

During the turbulent Reign of Blood, a great schism in the Imperial Ecclesiarchy threatened all of Terra and promised a darkness to rival the terrors of Old Night. Fell times have come again to the Imperium, and a War of Faith appears inevitable. Standing in the way of catastrophe is Celestine, the Living Saint and one of the greatest heroes of the age. Only she can reunite the warring factions of the Ecclesiarchy and prevent a second Reign of Blood. Together with the Inquisitor Greyfax, Celestine and her allies must hunt across the shrineworlds of the Imperium and beyond to root out the evil behind the schism and burn it out with righteous, cleansing flame.

Written by Gav Thorpe.

Performed by Cliff Chapman, Steve Conlin, Andrew Fettes, Matthew Hunt, Toby Longworth, Carla Mendonca, Richard Reed, David Sibley, Ramon Tikaram and Jo Woodcock, with Emma Gregory as Saint Celestine and Catherine Tate as Inquisitor Greyfax.

great story, good actors

Very enjoyable, well written and performed.
Good sound fx which added to the experience of bringing the grim dark alive.

Good Story, well acted

Only downside was that in parts it was hard to follow the dialogue due to the high levels of sound effects.

Exelent production but overall quite short

There was a lot of amazing production value in this but the story its self was a bit dull by 40k standards especially having such an amazing cast voice it. It was also around an hour shorter than advertised as the last chapter is interviewing the cast.

I'd give 10 stars on performance if I could!

Magnificent work. This is 5 hours long pure massive powerful warhammer experience! Worth every penny. Listening to these fights, conversations, politics was magical and engaging. Sound design is also great. It's like listening to a show in a theater, but with praising the emperor, and shooting bolters.
Listened it twice!

Very good listen!

Never written one of these but fantastic, 10/10, best black library audio book I've listen to! All of the voice actors work well together and build the world well. If you're considering this or another book I'd go for this one, it won't disappoint!

Fabulous story, brilliantly acted.

Some great politics in this one, and important for the wider universe. Definitely worth the credit.

Voice actors

Emma Gregory and Catherine Tate need awards for this performance! Absolutely fantastic work by them and the rest of the cast. I had to binge in a single sitting as I was hooked from the first 10 mins! Gav Thorpe one of my many favoured GW writers has blown it out the water with this.

Fantastic!

Amazing from beginning to end; at parts it was like listening to a movie!
A great listen for anyone interested in the SoB, Custodians or the Inquisition.
Worth the price and more!
