Farsight: Empire of Lies

Farsight: Warhammer 40,000, Book 2

By: Phil Kelly

Narrated by: Andrew Wincott, Helen McAlpine

Book 2 in the Farsight series.

The T'au Empire has long been plagued by the brutal orks—and Commander Farsight will see them destroyed. As his obsessive war against the greenskins escalates, other forces are at work, driving Farsight to an encounter that will change his view of the universe, the T'au Empire...and himself.

Listen to it because....

Discover the real story behind the defining moment of Commander Farsight's lif—and witness his struggles as he is torn between the Greater Good and a hideous truth about the nature of the galaxy.

The Story:

High Commander Farsight, fresh from his victory against the Imperium over the Damocles Gulf, looks to his borders and finds his old enemies—the savage and warlike orks—threatening to ravage the heart of the T’au Empire. Farsight’s obsessive crusade soon sees him locked in an escalating conflict with the greenskins, yet the hero of the Fire Caste will stop at nothing until their infestation is purged.

Foul forces are at work in the shadows, however—forces that will do whatever they can to see Farsight's military genius fall upon the daemon-haunted world of Arthas Moloch. Can Farsight stand in the face of the terrible truths he discovers there, and will the T’au Empire stand with him?

Written by Phil Kelly. Narrated by Andrew Wincott and Helen McAlpine. Running time 13 hours 3 minutes (approx).

Good book while painting minis

Voice acting was great. Had a named ork show up, which was cool. Lots of proper battles.

Oblatai is hilarious

The voice was unfitting especially so in book one
I need to write fifteen words for this review

Stunning and Amazing

i couldn't stop listening. Adventure, plots, Intrigue and loyalty. The universe is complicated indeed

Great Story

Loved the look into the start of Farsight's "awakening". Highly recommend for anyone who wants a look into Tau society.

A good listen for 40k Fans and Tau players.

One of the easiest listens yet. Excellent narration by Andrew and the segments with Helen giving voice to Vykola were top notch. Plenty of action and intrigue as Farsight struggles with various races and his own sense of justice vs the Tau'va.

Looking forward to more Tau content from Mr. Kelly
