As the Indomitus Crusade spreads out across the galaxy, one battlefleet must face a dread Slaughter Host of Chaos. Their success or failure may define the very future of the crusade - and the Imperium.

Listen to it because: the brand-new Warhammer 40,000 saga begins here. Experience the Indomitus Crusade and a battle that will be a tipping point for the future in an all-action tale by Guy Haley.

The story: a great darkness has befallen the galaxy, and the armies of Chaos are rampant. To survive, humanity must retaliate and take back what they have lost. By the will of the reborn primarch, Roboute Guilliman, is the Indomitus Crusade launched - a military undertaking that eclipses all others in known history. From the Throneworld of Terra does the Avenging Son hurl his fleets, their mission the very salvation of mankind.

As vessels in their thousands burn through the cold void, the attention of Fleetmistress VanLeskus turns to the Machorta Sound - a region under attack by a dreaded Slaughter Host of the Dark Gods. The success of the Indomitus Crusade will be determined by this conflict, and the desperate mission of Battlegroup Saint Aster, led by Space Marine Lieutenant Messinius. Even then it is but a prelude to the forthcoming bloodshed.

There are quite a lot of politics and intrigue in this book, which makes it quite a slow start to the series.
Strangely enough, I'd recommend starting the series with the second 'The Gate Of Bones', the third 'The Wolftime' and then going back to this one. The event of the fourth book 'Throne of Light' are in direct continuation to it, so reading it in order of 2,3,1,4 is actually best
The narrator is really good
The reason I don't rank this book higher is that for a book to start a series of the Indomitus Crusade, it should be less talking and more action
Overall pretty good nonetheless 73/100

A bit more on the boring side
