About this listen
A Warhammer 40,000 novel.
The Emperor's Spears are a Chapter on the edge of destruction, last watchmen over the Elara's Veil nebula. Now, the decisions of one man, Amadeus Kaias Incarius of the Mentor Legion, will determine the Chapter's fate....
Listen to it because:
Aaron Dembski-Bowden has turned his attention to creating (and maybe destroying) a Space Marine Chapter in detail, and this is your chance to discover their fate.
The story:
The scattered worlds of the Elara's Veil nebula were once protected by the oath of unity sworn by three mighty Chapters of the Adeptus Astartes. The Star Scorpions were undone by flaws in their genetic coding. The Celestial Lions were ravaged by the Inquisition for sins they did not commit. Now, after hundreds of years, only the Emperor's Spears still keep their vigil. They are barbarian watchmen against the Outer Dark, bloodied but unbroken in their long duty.
Amadeus Kaias Incarius, a brother of the Mentor Legion, is commanded to cross the Great Rift and assess the Spears' war-readiness, only to be drawn into the chaotic plight of a depleted crusade on the Imperium's benighted frontier. The decisions he makes, far from the God-Emperor's light, will decide the fate of the war-torn Chapter.
Written by Aaron Dembski-Bowden. Running time 11 hours and 46 minutes. Performed by Kelly Hotten.

Great!
Honestly was hesitant as I haven't heard a female voice actor. But Kelly absolutely smashes the voices. Really enjoyed it, gotta love ABB books, always great writing.
Book overall was great, hope there are more novels in that region of the imperium!

On yer ADB
As a long time Aaronaficionado I believe this is probably some of his best work- definitely up there with Betrayer and Black Legion. This was my first foray into the Dark Imperium era and it has taken me a while to get used to the concept of the big-marines. Well I'm pleased to say I was impressed by how subtly, and seemlessly, the Primaris lore was woven into the story. I now have a much greater appreciation of a setting that I was, before now, a bit wary of. The complexity of the tale, the use of the first person narrative and the way ADB works in material from his previous novels all comes together to make a very compelling read/listen. Can't wait until the next one! Kelly Hotten was an absolutely fantastic narrator too- big props to her and Black Library.

A fantastic story and performance
I, like others, were a bit dubious at first to have a female narrator but given the story is told from a female Helot's (Space Marine thrall) perspective, it makes compete sense.
Three narrator does an INCREDIBLE job of a variety of characters - yes even the Space Marines, and this story is another ADB classic
Can't wait for the sequel!

A unique and engaging 40k story
Drew me in at the start and only built from there.
Mostly told from the unique perspective of a chapter serf attending her master as a helate.
