An Astra Militarum Audiobook

Ursula Creed, Lord Castellan of the legendary Cadian armies, returns to the remains of their home world on a mission of the utmost importance.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Follow the daughter of legendary commander Usarker Creed back to the scene of a galactic crime, and see how she deals with her father's legacy and the pressure that the name 'Creed' brings.

THE STORY

What does it mean to be Cadian after the Fall? Ursula Creed has come to terms with the loss of her home world. For decades she has built a glittering career in the furthest reaches of the Imperium, far from her legendary father’s shadow. But when unexpected orders arrive from the Avenging Son himself, Roboute Guilliman, the new Lord Castellan realises that the past may not be ready to let her go.

Dispatched to the shattered remains of Cadia in search of Ursarkar E. Creed’s final battle plans, Ursula finds the planet a hellscape full of deadly secrets. What horrors claim Cadia’s corpse as their domain? What became of those left behind? What orders did Creed leave for Cadia when all was lost? And, most troubling of all, how can she succeed where her illustrious father has already failed?

Really good

It gave me everything i wanted. I little horror a lot of action. The book was relentless

#girlpower

#girlpower is the most #girlpower to ever #girlpower. Dad is mean and doesn’t understand me and my #girlpower.

Fantastic but not perfect

The book is great and the new lord castellan is a great character i definitely think she has a place in the setting. The only issue I have with this book is just a couple of lore inaccuracies and mistakes but unless you’re a massive nerd like me you probably won’t care. For instance a guardsman is not going to survive an encounter with a legionary from the death guard much less a psyker (and from the description an outcast deathshroud veteran in terminator armor) not that that fact takes anything away from this book. It’s just a couple things here and there that you’ll notice but I’m honestly nitpicking here so this is definitely worth the listen.

Best of Warhammer

I’ve read and Listened to countless Warhammer novels. This would be ranked, in my opinion, amongst the best. Compelling story and characters. A few good twists and and a solid conclusion. A must Read/Listen for any Astra Militarum fan!

Haters gonna hate

This book is a great introduction to a character and a setting that has to move forward. All the elitist nerds are gonna talk smack. She’s a baller and the story touches on so many important things in the era indomitus it’s a must read. And both instances of creed are amaze balls. Enjoy with a pinch of my salt.
