About this listen

A Warhammer 40,000 Drukhari Audiobook

Lelith Hesperax is the Queen of Knives – the greatest of Commorragh's wyches, and the deadliest gladiator in the galaxy. Now she returns to the Dark City, to slice her way through tangled webs of deception...

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Follow the legendary grand succubus as she finds herself dragged back to Commorragh and enveloped once more within the twisted plots of Asdrubael Vect.

THE STORY

In the darkest corners of the webway lies the city of Commorragh. Home to the sadistic drukhari, millions are butchered upon its arenas’ sands to slake their terrible thirst for blood. The greatest of these butchers is Lelith Hesperax – the Queen of Knives, and the deadliest gladiator in the galaxy.

Lelith abandoned the Dark City to walk alongside the nomadic death cultists of Ynnead, and in her absence from Commorragh, pretenders to her blood-soaked crown have arisen.

When a blade strikes at Lelith from the shadows, she is pulled back to Commorragh, and into the murderous games of the Living Muse himself – Asdrubael Vect. As his schemes coil around her, the Queen of Knives finds herself ensnared once more in Vect’s terrible web, and this time, mere blades may not be enough to cut her free.

a good read and has Votann lore too

it is a good view of the aeldari race from the perspective of the murder-hobos side while keeping it relatable.

Exactly what it needed to be.

Great performance from Beamish, spectacular writing from Brooks.
This is a must-read/listen if ever there was such a thing.
Brooks is quickly establishing himself as one of Black Library's best.

Short but sweet, Mike Brooks impresses as always.

iI never really liked the Drucharii before when first learning about them but after Da Big Dakka got me interested this book has done an amazing job of hooking me in. They are so inhuman and terrifying yet at times painfully relatable and the politics of the city are fascinating.
