Summary
A Lucille Von Shard Audiobook
An Imperial propagandist meets the flying ace legend he created, to prepare her for the most difficult battle of her storied career.
LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE
This novel offers insight into some of the lesser-known, but no less important, aspects of the Imperial war machine – the agents who move in the shadows to rouse and inspire the masses of soldiers across every branch of the war effort.
THE STORY
Flight Commander Lucille von Shard: Hero of Bacchus, fighter ace, and a living legend heralded for her valour and piety. Propagandist Kile Simlex, responsible for her fame, shares none of this renown. Condemned to the ignominy of a scribe’s cubicle cell, his chance at liberation comes as a cryptic vid message claiming to be from Shard herself, requesting his aid.
Under the von Shard family’s patronage, Simlex journeys to Deighton, a world in open rebellion from the Imperium, where he finds the commander a shadow of her former self. Near broken by eternal war, her confidence and reputation crumbling, Shard must somehow steel herself for her deadliest battle yet, against a xenos mercenary of unparalleled skill. Can Simlex help her overcome this near-invincible enemy, or merely watch as she is finally defeated?

Another phenomenal book
What is there to not like about above and beyond?
Wether you’re new to the universe of Warhammer 40,000 or a well into the hobby and the lore this book will have something for you, loveable characters, awesome narration and what everyone loves - dope dog fights
After reading Outgunned I was thrilled to learn of a sequel and was wondering how Denny Flowers was going to outdo himself but my god he did, a perfect sequel to an amazing first story. Possible some of the best character development I’ve seen in a long while that makes you feel for the characters and with enough twists and turns to keep you guessing and absolutely devastated at times
If you like 40k, planes, head strong leads, super arrogant fighter pilots and creepy servo skulls floating about then this has something for you
Definitely give it a try!

Absolutely phenomenal narration
I don't remember having any strong feelings about the prior book but this one had me hooked from start to finish, and I adore the narrator's performance as the Commissar

Expertly written and professional narrated
Loved this well read story strong and sticks to one person and not jumping between 10. Is that a northern ireland accent ?

good look at the imperium failing
not as good as the first one, but different enough to make it worthwhile.
narration is spot on for the roles and keeps the story moving.
it's a good look at the imperium home front, along with the blue blood book, on how it sells "victory"
