About this listen
A Blood Angels story
In the aftermath of the Devastation of Baal, the call of the Black Rage draws Astorath, Redeemer of the Lost, to the planet Dulcis. There he finds a successor Chapter on the brink of destruction and a revelation that will shake all the sons of Sanguinius to their core.
Listen to it because: discover one of the Blood Angels' most fascinating characters, the warrior tasked with the grim duty of ending the threat of the Black Rage wherever it occurs.
The story: following the Devastation of Baal and the arrival of the Primarch Roboute Guilliman’s Indomitus Crusade, Commander Dante of the Blood Angels has been appointed Lord Regent of all Imperium Nihilus. Working with the successor chapters of the Blood Angels, Dante commands that the area around the Red Scar be scouted in preparation for reconquest. The Red Wings’ sweep has led them to the foetid world of Dulcis, dangerously near to the Cicatrix Maledictum itself. Decimated by the tyranids during the war for Baal and only lightly reinforced by Primaris Space Marines, the Red Wings Chapter are in no position to deal with the events that unfold there. Strange psychic phenomenon and a deadly xenos enemy threaten the great hope of all the Chapters of the Blood - that the flaw in Sanguinius’ geneseed has at last been tamed. Drawn by the Black Rage to Dulcis, Astorath the Grim, Lord High Chaplain and Redeemer of the Lost, comes to aid the Red Wings. But what he discovers there will shake the Chapters of the Blood to their very core.
Written by Guy Haley. Running time six hours one minute. Narrated by Richard Reed.

Justice undone.
It felt like it was hard to do justice to such a cool character in such a short book. Compared to the stories of Dante and Mephiston the story felt very bland with super repetitive dialog. I don’t intend to be overly critical but I was anticipating this book intently and felt very underwhelmed. Richard Reed does a great job as per usual however. Weaknesses aside it was great to hear what was going on, on that side of the rift and some cool Xenos species up to their diabolical tricks.

Grim & Datk
loved the dark setting, tone, and characters. Focuses on the black rage and the fall into it, and the darkside to the blood angels. Supporting characters are excellent.

A good listen.
This was a great read/listen, the story itself is very enjoyable though it does lack a lot of what it's named after. However the world building was fantastic and something we've not gotten since the HH novels.
Strongly recommend.

Good read
Nothing groundbreaking in this book but I enjoyed a short dive into Astorath, I think it needed to spend more time on his character. Touches on the Death Company - got to love that!
