By: Gav Thorpe

Narrated by: John Banks

A Space Marine Conquests audiobook.

Concerned by his Chapter’s diminishing numbers, Logan Grimnar entrusts Njal Stormcaller with finding a remedy for the Space Wolves' plight - a remedy that may lie in the least likely of places, on the damned world of Prospero.

Listen to it because....

Space Wolves and Thousand Sons are eternal foes, and this audiobook explores events from the Horus Heresy and the Space Wolves' circumstances in the 41st millennium in interesting and exciting ways.

The story....

The grand halls of Fenris grow ever quieter in the wake of the Space Wolves' arduous campaigns. Concerned by his Chapter’s diminishing numbers, the Great Wolf Logan Grimnar entrusts Njal Stormcaller with a task - to find a remedy for their plight.

When a 10,000-year-old enemy embeds itself in the Rune Priest’s mind, it claims that the salvation he seeks lies where an ancient enmity began - on Prospero, the ruined home world of the Thousand Sons Legion. Alongside an eclectic company of injured Space Wolves, thralls, and a trickster who is more hindrance than help, the Stormcaller sets forth. But it soon becomes apparent that greater mechanisms are at work. It is no longer only the fate of the Sons of Russ that is at stake, but that of the entire Imperium.

Written by Gav Thorpe. Narrated by John Banks. Duration 9 hours 24 minutes.

Great read

Love the wolves and this book didn’t let me down the mystery and combat was a good combination

Lukas and Njall shine

In a fantastic surprise for me, this book was exceptionally entertaining. What amounts to a Freaky-Friday Buddy-Space-Marine quest cements the fact that once again, Lukas is the best Trickster in the 40k setting, and that the Space Wolves get all the best stories. Definitely pick this up if you're on the fence about it, you will NOT be disappointed.

Enjoyed book from a thousand sons fan

it was very nice to see a thousand sons sorcerer and rune priest fight like a old married couple. it was a cool to see a 10 thousand year old thousand sons disliked or outwardly refused the actions of the current thousand sons, truly shows how they have fallen. The revelation of why the burning of prospero even happen was a nice touch.

A good read (listen)

Top to bottom a good read, I do wish some of the revelations in the last chapters of the book had time to breath. Especially because some of the chapters meander a bit. Still very enjoyable

Space wolf vs thousand son

Lovely story happy to see the greatest missunderstanding in warhammer has been cleared up for a few of the primarch’s sons.
