About this listen

A Warhammer 40,000 novel

Saint Celestine is one of the greatest heroes of the Dark Imperium, an immortal warrior who returns time and again, even when struck down by a foe, like the Emperor's avenging angel. But what happens when she dies and comes back? Prepare to find out.

Listen to it because
Andy Clark lays bare one of the greatest mysteries of Warhammer 40,000: the trials Saint Celestine must undergo in order to return from death....

The story
With her mighty wings spread wide and Ardent Blade aflame, Saint Celestine is the living embodiment of the God-Emperor’s wrath. Her halo blazes like a star upon the smog-wreathed, blood-soaked battlefields of the 41st Millennium; its holy light leading the faithful to victory time and time again. As heretics and daemons tear at her flesh, she calls down fires of retribution from on high to smite the wicked and unrighteous.

If she is to fall in battle, none should mourn as she is Celestine, the Living Saint, and death is her duty. Though it comes at a great cost. For each time she is slain, Saint Celestine finds herself trapped in a terrible realm of suffering and torment. There her faith in the God-Emperor will be put to the test so she may prove herself worthy of life once more.

Brilliant

At first it was a little confusing but once you start to get into the story it all starts to really make sense. This book has really furthered my for Saint Celestine as a character.

Lack of Emotional Depth

Unfortunately it has a lack of emotional depth...
the beyond chapters are brilliant, but the war story let's the story down.
Narrator is however brilliant

Good core idea but poorly executed

I wanted to love this but the story wavered too often for me. I usually love these books for their ability to capture your imagination but this one just couldn't do it for me. I fear that the main reason for this was the main voice actor. I can appreciate that she was given a lot of roles to play and that can be difficult but most were so poor that it took me completely out of the story. Unfortunately, if I see the same voice actor I'll likely give the audio book versions a miss.
