Book 1 in the Eisenhorn series

Inquisitor Eisenhorn faces a vast interstellar cabal and the dark power of daemons, all racing to recover an arcane text of abominable power - an ancient tome known as the Necroteuch.

Listen to It Because:

The classic novel returns in a brand new edition. Inquisitor Eisenhorn gathers allies to unravel a conspiracy and hunt an alien threat. Relive the adventures of some of Warhammer 40,000's most beloved characters, or experience the beginning of Eisenhorn's remarkable adventures for the first time.

The Story:

The Inquisition moves amongst mankind like an avenging shadow, striking down the enemies of humanity with uncompromising ruthlessness. When he finally corners an old foe, Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn is drawn into a sinister conspiracy. As events unfold and he gathers allies - and enemies - Eisenhorn faces a vast interstellar cabal and the dark power of daemons, all racing to recover an arcane text of abominable power: an ancient tome known as the Necroteuch.

As someone that really likes Space Marines from the HH or Ciaphas Cain, I was sceptical that I'd enjoy Xeno. But oh boy was I wrong. You NEED to try it, it is so good.

Excellent

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I was impressed by the different characters one can incorporate. The sci fi fantasy story is complex, structured and creative.

Magnificent Voice beautifully narrated

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Narrator excels at voices/accents even for female characters. Tranistions between characters are so seemless and natural since he does not overdo it that I came to appreciate it only midway through the book. Unnoticable, not annoying yet so spot on for every character in the book.

Superb narration

Keep in mind this is really old lore and the begining of DA in warhammer 40k. He becaome a better writter later on.

It's supposed to be James Bond 40k and it is badly written.
Too much action, too long action, no character development.
The stakes are so high it becomes absurd.
