About this listen

A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

Prince Yriel leads the eldar in defence of the fallen maiden world Dûriel. Will he keep the tyranid forces of Leviathan and Kraken from merging into one all-consuming hive fleet?

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

The eldar of Iyanden forge an uneasy alliance with the dark eldar to prevent two tyranid hive fleets from merging into a mega-fleet invasion. This is a fascinating insight into eldar culture and the tumultuous relationship between the craftworlds and Commorrites, alongside fantastic battles.

THE STORY

Long ago defiled by the Imperium of Man, the eldar maiden world of Dûriel was once a glittering jewel in the crown of the Valedor System. As the tyranids of Hive Fleet Leviathan sweep through the sector consuming everything in their path, wayward Prince Yriel of Iyanden discovers that the farseers have inadvertently brought a greater threat to bear – a fragment of Hive Fleet Kraken, hurled into the warp to save the craftworld, has returned. The tyranid fleets cannot be allowed to combine, or their genetic legacies will merge into something even more terrible. Alongside allied forces from Craftworld Biel-Tan and even the dark eldar of Commorragh, Yriel has no choice but to fight on to the bitter end…

This book is, in a word, great. Not only becauee it is a gripping and thrilling story, which it is, but also because it so nails the essence of the Eldar. That really is no small feat either. Their lore tells us that they are a long-lived and longwinded race, prone to flowery speech and phrases. I have always assumed that the challenges of writing that without making it tedious or cheesy sounding or both was at least a contributing factor to why we get so few Eldar novels. This book nails that though, remaining both easy to understand and gripping without sacrificing what makes the Eldar who they are. The terrific performance no doubt helps with that too. As a lover of all things space elf, getting a look at so many aspects of their lives, culture, politics, and how they make war, was simply amazing. I really can't recommend this book enough!

Beautifully and unapologetically Eldar

Wow, this book is great if you like the Eldar, but it has implications for the whole setting and I cannot wait fot more. The books title is a bit strange as its not really about the named character, but he is in it and it does tell part of his story. But m, without spoiling it. The story is much bigger than I expected it to be. like so much more. If you love the lore of the setting then get this, there is so much here. The audiobook is well performed and produced. The story is great. Dam I can not wait for a follow up. ,

The best Eldar book that shakes the 40k verse to its core.

One of the rare few, and genuinely a good novel that isn't just the doom and despair we're used too

The plot is great, the story is one of progression which the Eldar get very little of. But unfortunately the writing is amateurish - far too many obvious tropes, far too much olde worlde speak and the descriptions lack that gritty reality that they need. Everything is just a little too unrealised and and glossy. The narration is very average with some poor voice choices and a lack of flexibility by the narrator. In all, a great story poorly told by both the writer and the narrator.

Good plot inadequately described and narrated
