Summary

A Baggit and Clodde Novel

A ratling and an ogryn aren't the best-matched pair, but in the crime-ridden heart of Varangantua, anything goes—at least, when there's a big score to be had.

Listen to it because

This is first full-length novel featuring the characters Baggit and Clodde from the audio drama Dredge Runners. Follow the duo as they hunt for a treasure that could answer all of their problems.

The story

Baggit is the fast-talking ratling with an eye for the big score. Clodde is the ogryn with a heart of gold and a head full of dreams. These abhuman deserters-turned-criminals operating in the city of Varangantua have crossed the wrong man for the last time—and now they’re on the run…

At least, that is, until Baggit learns of a score that could pay their debts and save their skins—the Wraithbone Phoenix, a fabled treasure rumoured to be hidden aboard a voidship recently scheduled for decommission. But Baggit and Clodde aren’t the only ones with eyes on the prize. When word gets out, every thief in the Dredge is going to be gunning for the Phoenix. Does Baggit have the cunning to find the treasure and get out alive, or will someone finally cash in the bounty on his head?

One of the best non-40k 40k books ever

For me 40k can be deep and shallow at the same time.
I am not a huge fan of everything 40k but i like many books.
This is one of my favorites.
It is actually lite and and charming.
Not much knowledge of the universe is needed.
The main character is good, has his faults and makes mistakes. His "sidekick" is brilliant.
Would like to see more books in this series.

My new favourite

Great characters with a brilliant plot and a couple of nice twists. Definitely one of the most well rounded stories I've heard from the gw universe.

Fantastic Fun

A much more grounded adventure by a couple of very fun and relatable characters; whilst still being very 40k!

This was AMAZING!

I can't recommend this enough. It's a tour de force of what storytelling in the 40k universe can be. The voice performance is also top notch.

Good, charming story and excellent narration

This book had a solid, charming story, as well as a really great narrator/VA. I found it to be quite funny, despite the grim setting. There are some points where the pacing of the book is off; Suddenly going very slow or very fast, skipping over things or explaining the obvious in extreme detail, etc. Because of this and some other flaws, I can't give the story a 5/5. But this book is overall very solid, and easily worth the price.

Hobbits in Space!! Great story.

loved the story and characters in this book and the reader was excellent. my only criticism would be that the formatting is a bit weird so all the chapters are seamlessly blended so sometimes a new paragraph begins from a different character's perspective and it takes several confused seconds to realise there has been a change.
