About this listen

An Astra Militarum Novel

A young soldier of the Astra Militarum is thrust onto a battlefield where the average life expectancy is just fifteen hours – facing brutal orks, artillery bombardment, and the horrors of no man's land.

Listen to it because

It's a sharp, incisive look at the first hours of war for a new Guardsman, and all the terrors that accompany it…

The story

Arvin Larn is terrified. On the battlefields of the far future, only an insane man wouldn't be. Seventeen years old and still new to the Imperial Guard, he is thrust straight into his first war, and must face horrors that his sheltered upbringing could never prepare him for. The trenches of the 41st millennium are filled with worse things than rats and trenchrot. For one, the world they fight for is being contested by the monstrous alien orks. The greenskins live for battle and fight without fear, so it's no wonder that the average life-span of an Imperial Guardsman on this forsaken world is only fifteen hours.

Where my 40k obsession began

This was the first Warhammer book I ever read back in the day, and it launched me on a fantastical voyage I could not have ever predicted.
This book is somewhat of a ww1-esqe story of trench warfare and the horrors that come with it, From a hidden enemy that is always watching and waiting, to idiotic generals that have nothing but contempt for those who serve under them.
The characters are good and well written, but Tom Allenby really brings them to life. I highly recommend this audiobook just for his amazing performance.
