Publisher's Summary

A Space Marine Battles novel

Chaos is unleashed, and things look bleak for Pandorax - until salvation arrives in the form of the entire Dark Angels Chapter, led by Master Azrael and a host of heroes.

Listen to it because: as well as being one of the most brutal conflicts of the Warhammer 40,000 settings, Pandorax also features some of the 41st Millennium's most recognisable heroes and villains, such as Azrael of the Dark Angels, Grand Master Draigo of the Grey Knights, Colonel Iron Hand Straken of Catachans and even Warmaster Abaddon of the Black Legion. Horus Heresy fans will also find links to the novel The Damnation of Pythos set a full 10,000 years earlier. Finally, there's a loveable Jokaero space-ape that drives a tank. That's got to be worth a listen?

The story: in the Pandorax System, on the death world of Pythos, an ancient secret that has laid buried for millennia. Ignorant of this terror, troopers of the Catachan 183rd, stranded on Pythos, find themselves under attack by the forces of Chaos. Daemons in their thousands flock the sky, and none other than Warmaster Abaddon leads the attack. With the Death Guard and Black Legion arrayed against them, the Catachans appear to be doomed, until salvation arrives in the form of the entire Dark Angels Chapter. But what is the so-called 'Damnation Cache'? What secrets does it harbour, and why has it also attracted the attention of the daemon-hunting Grey Knights?

Written by C Z Dunn. Narrated by Gareth Armstrong.

Truly amazing

Easily one of the best 40k era books there is. Dark Angels, the Inquisition, Grey Knights, massed battles of IG and space marines. I wasn’t a big fan of Gareth Armstrong after listening to Devastation of Baal, I felt he didn’t bring enough emotion into the story, but this was definitely a solid listen. Would 100% recommend this if you were looking for something with an incredible story in the 40k era

Has it all!!

Grey Knights, Dark Angels, Black Legion, Catachan Jungle Fighters, Cadians, Mordians, Inquisition, Abaddon, Castelan Crowe, Azrael, Belial, Samael, an awesome helldrake, and one of the best jokaeros in 40k history. If this doesn't peak your interest then you have no business calling yourself a Warhammer fan. This book isn't just one of the best Space Marine Battle books, but one of the best 40k books full stop!
My only critique is Gareth Armstrongs naration of certain characters, often making them seem comical. But it's a small criticism.

War on a Huge Scale Told Well

It's a good 40k book, the story is pretty good but it's mainly bolter porn.

Very Wide and Very Shallow

The story reads like it’s trying to include every ‘cool’ thing in 40k for the sake of it as opposed to being a very interesting read. Characters act immature and atypical, way too many elements are introduced but not utilised just to prove the author knows about 40k stuff, and overall you could cut our 3/4 of the elements and still tell the same story.
