Description
It is the 41st millennium, and an upstart alien empire has emerged on the Eastern Fringe. After a few skirmishes to retake human worlds from these blue-skinned invaders, the time has come to strike against the so-called Tau Empire.
At the forefront of the Damocles Crusade stand the Ultramarines, commanded by Captain Atheus, the Chapter's Lord Executioner. With his loyal sergeants Numitor and Sicarius by his side, Atheus vows to exterminate the aliens...but the cunning xenos commanders, Farsight and Shadowsun, have other plans.

Loved it, 12 hours of intense action
Like a very good action movie. Found it captivating from beginning to end. Really good Warhammer 40k sci fi. In my top 5 of the Black Library

Grim Dark
As a traveling sales rep i spend a lot of time in my car and I listen to a lot of books on Audible to pass the time. That is to say I’ve noticed my tastes of late have gotten more “refined”, not in the snobby sense but more that I know what I like and what I don’t like. Sadly I didn’t like this book. I love the Warhammer 40,000 universe and am always looking for more Xenos lore, but this book suffered from too much Grim Dark. Phil Kelly did a commendable job portraying the Tau and John Banks is a great narrator, but the Space Marines lack depth and are almost comically stereotypical. For a lot of the fans that is exactly what they are looking for, but sadly it wasn’t my cup of tea.
If you’re looking for Tau lore or are really liked other Space Marine novels then definitely pick up this book, but if you’re like me and can’t stand to hear another “For the Emperor!!!!” then give this one a pass.

Amazing reading but the plot shield
The voice acting for this book was awesome a performance that was clean and on point from start to finish.
The main weakness was the plot shield for tge main characters. Now you know that main characters live through the impossible but when this point is made pointed out time after time it stops veing impossible and just annoying, the characters are saved by a thousand last second saves, miracles, and random one shots. This can be done well but in this case it seems just lazy on the writters part.
The rest of the story was fun though seeing each sude adapt to the other. The advanced tech of thr Tau put against the ancient Tech of Mankind makes for some really great battles.

Fantastic introduction to the Ta'u empire.
I loved seeing the Empire of man through the eyes of theTa'u empire. Although man is old we are still primitive And although the Ta'u advanced they are very young. Good Book 👍

Enjoying every moment from both sides of the war
I'm still fairly new to Warhammer 40k lore. As a Tau player, I enjoyed the combat between the imperium and the various forces of the Tau. The battlesuit combat was described in an excellent manner. Hats off to John Banks for the excellent narration and to Phil Kelly for the material itself.
On to the next book, For the Greater Good!

pretty good
Barely getting into 40k and the Tau are the only faction that really interested me so this book was the perfect thing to start me off on my 40k journey :)

Good Entry Point for 40k newcomers
First book for 40k I've read. Enjoyed it a lot. Requires only the barest of background info to be know (What 40k is, what the Imperium of Man is, what Space Marines are, type of thing) but explains most of what you need.

THE CODEX ASTARTES DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS ACTION!
Who writes a 10 minute section on helmets being codex compliant or not? And STILL isn't finished mentioning it!
.
Seriously the author must've had a mandate to mention to codex every 5 minutes of space marine story.
.
The Tau parts are alright.

Deeply Meh
Its not extremely well-written, the Tau are boring and the Space Marines ridiculous and bombastic. I don't know that there's much Tau lore to absorb here that you couldn't get from a codex, and nothing new about Space Marines. I only listened because I've already made my way through all of the Horus Heresy and Siege of Terra.

Decent book with some questionable choices
The book is good and John Banks has a nice voice most of the time, but he gives all the Tau a stereotypical Japanese accent which is irritating because while the Tau (and Farsight in particular) are somewhat based on samurai that doesn’t justify making half of the characters in the book have annoying and vaguely racist sounding voices. The volume also seems to change slightly throughout the book so be prepared to be adjusting your volume constantly.

tau vs spacemarine
wer mehr über die tau wissen will und wie sie kampfen ist dieses buch perfect aber plot Armor vs plot armor machen die Kampf teils langweilige.
2 stunden kurzer hatte der Geschichte gut getan

Gutes 40k mit vielen Facetten
Das Buch als solches ist ganz gut. Die Sprache ist sicherlich nichts für Einsteiger, den die 40k Autoren neigen dazu dass englische Vokabular umfangreich zu nutzen. Weder Space Marines noch Tau sind in dieser Story die Guten, was das Buch als solches auch besonders interessant macht, da hier nichts einfach schwarz und weiß ist.
