About this listen
A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook
Archmagos Belisarius Cawl invites representatives from across the Imperium, hoping to secure their assistance in unlocking the secrets of the pylon network. Among the attendees, however, is an uninvited guest who may possess the only mind in the galaxy greater than that of the fabled Archmagos…
LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE
The showdown of two much-loved characters finally occurs – Fabius Bile vs Belisarius Cawl. Each is a genius in their own right, and both are willing to do things most others won't to achieve their goals.
Which of these two megaminds will come out victorious?
THE STORY
In the hope of taming the Great Rift that divides the galaxy in two, Archmagos Belisarius Cawl invites representatives from across the Imperium to the artificial world of Pontus Avernes. Confident he can convince them of his genius, he must secure their assistance in unlocking the secrets of the pylon network – significant structures built by an ancient race that he believes can stave off the pull of the warp. But among the attendees is an uninvited guest: Fabius Bile himself.
The Pater Mutatis needs no validation of his genius and has his own agendas, the pursuit of which will bring about an epic confrontation of the galaxy’s greatest scientific minds – and from which only one can emerge victorious.
Written by Guy Haley. Narrated by John Banks. Run time 10hrs 15mins (approx).

praise the machine god!
Hot damn this was amazing, so much was packed into 10ish hours. Mechanicum politics, inquisitors, dark mechanicum, dark age tech, the emperor(maybe?), necrons and more besides! such a good book!

What a fun read!
"Curse you Belisarius Cawl!" -Qvo 1-89
Getting to see our favourite 40k mad scientists run a muck was sheer joy, the way Cawl's mental processes and interactions with technology are depicted had me particularly gripped.
Despite its relatively short length and occasional trouble telling the difference between Cawl and Bile's voices, I still have to give this 5 stars for how positively I think this story impacts the setting and how truly fun it was

cawl vs bile
I have read and understood the complaints. I still thought this was a good book and a great continuation from the great work. if you like Cawl and Bile, you'll like this one. i think this worked better as an audiobook, and so rather enjoyed it.

Beautiful continuation
Drives the story forward! Doesn't re-explain what a space marine is! It's refreshing that this is to the point, pertinent and drives major story elements of the 40k lore. Thank you for a wonderful time

dialog between Bile and Cowl
the dialog between the two geniuses was at once humorous and clever. two sides of the same coin.

Great story great narration, unfortunately doesn’t really feel like 40K
Very cool and entertaining story with great character personality from the narrator, however neither the story nor the narration “feel” 40K.
Change the character and item names and it would read as a good Star Wars book.

Two sides of the coin
Love this interaction between these characters gives a view that everyone is right but everyone is wrong

An exquisite battle between two great thinkers
Genefather is very well written and is expertly conveyed by the VA. I could hardly turn my mind from the story and it's characters (especially Alpha Primus) but I found the ending to be mildly perturbing.
I feel the events this novel sets the stage for will be monumental in their own right, and however brused the players within may be, I keenly await whatever comes next.
