Book 3 in the Forges of Mars series.

Beyond the edges of the galaxy, Archmagos Kotov's great voyage comes to an end. Now, he must ensure the galaxy survives his success...

Listen to it because...

The terrible secret that has haunted the series is revealed, and sheds new light on the Machine Cult's eternal mission to retrieve technology, no matter the cost...

The story:

In the great black void beyond the boundaries of the galaxy itself, Archmagos Kotov's voyage has come to an end. He has found his quarry at last – the resting place of the long-lost Vettius Telok. But Telok yet lives, and as the brave explorators of Kotov's fleet marvel at the wonders laid before them, darker plans unfold. As reality itself is threatened by impossible technologies from the dawn of time, it falls to a small group of heroes to thwart an insane plan that could see the very universe itself annihilated.

Crapped the bed at the end

Loved the first two books, and most of this one. The last 30-ish minutes of this last one was underwhelming. Felt like a forced set up.

Excellent conclusion to a great series

Excellent conclusion to a great series. Great narration and I really enjoyed the fleshing out of the deeper admech lore.

Amazing

Enrapturing spoilers ahead stop reading now danger danger the plot twist omg graham made that bitter so good but so bitter!!!

Great book and performance!

Great story from beginning to end! Interesting twists during the story. Great performance that matched the book!

Amazing Series

The narrator is excellent and really helped bring this story to life. A challenge given the number of POV characters (it’s a lot.) I’ve only gotten interested in the 40k universe in the last year or so and have never been able to play the tabletop game.

However, as a lifelong sci-fi fan I’m happy that there is so much more to 40k. This series andThe Vaults of Terra books are great even if you’re not steeped in the 40k universe. It certainly helps to know about the background and history of factions but these can be understood and enjoyed even if you don’t.

Amazing!!!

I loved it! If you like warhammer give it a go, if you like the mechanicus this is a must! Lots ah tech heresy.

amazing book & series!

had me locked in every minute, very recommended & has such details in the warhammer 40k universe!

Deep dive into the Mechanicus

The story and perspectives from which the story unfolds are very engaging. The discovery of what lies beyond the halo scar was particularly interesting as you get to see a univers beyond the imperium of man and travel in space beyond the light of the astronomican. The characters on this voyage are also very interesting and well developed. What I found most interesting is that at the end of the trilogy you are left wondering if the intentions of the villain of the story were not so bad for the imperium and it's development out of the stagnation it is currently in.

bravo

what a fantastic continuation of this story. definitely wasn't crying during that 23rd chapter either...nope

Loved it!

While the ending definitely could have been a bit better, what a journey it was! The trip through the Halo Scar and beyond was amazing and has given me a great deal of ideas for 40k and Killteam scenarios.
