A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

The galactic core is beset by warp storms of a fury the Leagues of Votann have not seen for ten millennia. With both the Imperium of Man and the powers of the warp encroaching further and further onto the Kin’s territories, war reigns supreme amongst the coreward stars.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Hear what happens when a Hernkyn Prospect leader and her companions are plunged into a venture beyond their wildest expectations, and find themselves set against an ancient, deadly foe guarding a mysterious but magnificent prize.

THE STORY

Myrtun Dammergot, leader for the Kindred of the Eternal Starforge, is in her element, exploiting the unending conflict and living a life of adventure, without the unwanted burden of responsibility.

But when a messenger from her Kindred’s Hold ship brings news that upends everything she knows, responsibility, challenges, and opportunity come knocking.

Took em long enough

It’s fine, but for how long it took them to make this, I was hoping for more. It introduces you to a character for one of the great leagues, shows you the relationship the kin have towards each other, and sets up a future plot.

so much great lore

Give me more Votann. Space Marines need to chill out and take a break for awhile

good first dive into the Kin

Not once did someone try to sound like the Scottsman from Samuri Jack!!! other than that, wonderful book.

Not bad not great

It just felt like a pretty generic story that gave little story or real world building to the Votann faction. First 3/4 of the book were very slow and the last 1/4 had an alright climax with some corny moments. Any non Imperium factions always get subpar books so they are consistent in that much.

Good Lore establishment; lack luster story

Overall I enjoyed that the book established a lot about Kin society and they think and behave, which is something. the faction was really needing. Unfortunately, outside of that, I found the characters and story very boring and difficult to care about. It spends a lot of time re-establishing itself over and over only for what felt like a very half baked climax.
I would recommend it to anyone who wants a better understanding of Votann and Kin on a lore level, but would not recommend to anyone else really.

It's Okay

For the first book about the Votann I'm a bit disappointed in it. Story didn't really go anywhere and was largely forgettable.

The Ancestors Are Watching!

A worthwhile wait for more lore on the Leagues of Votann! This book provides deep insight into the culture of the Leagues, whilst also providing a story that draws on the science-fantasy themes 40k is known for.

Narration is dry

Story is meh but at least it’s some form of Votann lore. Narration is very dry

Slow start, but a fine story

Bit of a slow start but gets going towards the middle. If like me you want to know more about that League's society and thoughts, it is 5/5. if you want story about the kin, 3/5. they aren't bad but aren't that compelling.

Excited for more Votann except….

I DNF’d this one so bear that in mind but I couldn’t handle the narrator anymore or the terrible main character. Very cool getting to see the Leagues and the battles made me want models but otherwise I just couldn’t listen anymore
