Publisher's Summary

Siege of Terra, Book 2

The Solar War is over. The Siege of Terra has begun. As the Traitors unleash their deadliest weapons, the defenders of the Throneworld face nightmare and plague - but Terra must stand.

Listen to it because: discover the lengths to which Horus will go to claim Terra as his own - and the horrors he is willing to set upon its defenders.

The story: on the 13th day of Secundus, the bombardment of Terra began. With the solar defences overcome through the devastating strength of the Traitor armada and the power of the warp, Horus launches his assault on the Throneworld in earnest. After withstanding a ferocious barrage of ordnance, an immense ground war commences outside the Palace, with every inch gained paid for in the lives of billions. The front lines are beyond horrific, and the very air is reduced to poison and blood. Bodies are thrown into the meat grinder, but the outer redoubts cannot possibly hold for long, even with the loyal primarchs to reinforce them.

For Horus has his own generals to call upon. Between the plague weapons of Mortarion and the fury of Angron, the defenders face a losing battle.

Written by Guy Haley. Narrated by Jonathan Keeble.

No cracks in this wall

written well and another grand performance. Guy Haley defiantly captured to essence of the legions and Primarchs with his writing style. Jonathan Keeble continues to bring his artistry to bringing the characters and setting to life. a true one man show of voices.
a great audiobook.

Excellent Listen

This is definitely worth a purchase.

Having recently finished The Solar War, I was drained from that experience. While French is undoubtedly a superlative 40k author, I found it hard to stay engaged with his poetic exposition style of writing used in The Solar War.

Haley’s approach used for The Lost and the Damned, has me hanging on to every utterance from Keeble. It’s a great story with great characters, with some old favourites popping up, and It’s told in a matter of fact manner.

Can’t go wrong with Keebles delivery either, GW need to just licence him and Longworth to read all future stories.

Great listen

A great engaging storyline, I found myself disinterested after Solar War however Book 2 has redeemed my interest moving forward.

Although Keeble’s impression of the Japanese tongue is the most offensive thing to Japanese people since Nagasaki.

Not quite enough.

While this story follows interesting characters that hook me in well enough, it seems to meander around mysteriously without actually doing anything. I'm intrigued, but through the whole novel I feel like I'm waiting for something that happen that never does. It feels like Guy Haley was writing one big book and an editor cut it in half and gave us this little one.

The ending is unsatisfying in that it is clearly setting up a sequel that we all knew was coming but I feel that that's no reason to leave every question unresolved in -this- book.

That said, it's got good characters to follow and does a decent job of describing the boring parts of a siege in an interesting way that includes the science fiction elements without breaking immersion. As an audio medium, Jonathan Keeble does an admirable job putting a different nuance on each character.

awesome 40k lore hit

Fantastic book full of plenty of edge of seat moments and fantastic wealth of lore and acknowledgements carefully and skillfully written. Did start a little slow and for some reason I found the audio a little hard to follow for the first couple of chapters but then boom we are up and racing and death is everywhere.... Glorious book.

Great book and narration but not quite perfect.

I thought the performance of the narrator was really good, he had the ability to use several voices and sometimes back and forth during conversations between characters. but having said that, there were sometimes where the quality slipped a bit. And also unfortunately the difference of voice/narrator (perturabo) between books was a bit disappointing due to inconsistency of the sound of Perturabo’s personality and accent/voice. But I did thoroughly enjoy the book, the narration and stage of the story
