Publisher's Summary

A T'au Empire novel

Fresh from his victory on Arkunasha, the young Commander Farsight leads a crusade to reclaim colonies lost to mankind's Imperium. But stiff resistance will test him to his limits and beyond.

Listen to it because: Phil Kelly continues his look at the life of Commander Farsight with his first campaign against the full might of the Imperium and shows how the T'au Empire's technological superiority fares against Imperial grit.

The story: the t'au are a mysterious alien race, diametrically opposed to the Imperium of Man in every possible way - in their mastery of technology, methods of warfare and social structure. Yet in galactic terms they are a young race, and naïve when it comes to the manipulations of Chaos. When promising young Commander Farsight is promoted to lead a crusade across the Damocles Gulf to reclaim the T'au Empire's lost colonies from mankind, the mood is one of optimism. With their mighty fleet, and superior weapons and machines, how can their endeavour possibly fail? However, despite a parade of early successes, Commander Farsight soon faces enemies he wasn't anticipating and finds not only his courage but also his soul tested to the very limit.

Written by Phil Kelly. Narrated by Helen McAlpine and Andrew Wincott.

Great Tau Story

Despite being focused on the perspective of the Tau, the mix of views from both chaos and humanity is an intriguing listen on how outside forces view the both the Tau empire and Commander Farsight.

Excellent & Intriguing Story

Absolutely loved this, to listen to the history, the culture, the philosophy, the science and technology was fantastic.

The only criticisms I have is that the story transition between characters was very blured. Sometimes you would be listening intently to Farsight and the next second were listening to someone else in a completely different place and time.

Maybe I've listened to too much Halo where transitions can take up half a page.

Also, some pronunciation of the Tau words differ from how I know them to be pronounced, but that's fine.

Loved it, can't wait for more!
