About this listen

The Ghosts of the Tanith First-and-Only have been away from the front line for too long. Listless and hungry for action, they are offered a mission that perfectly suits their talents.

The objective: the mysterious Salvation's Reach, a remote and impenetrable stronghold concealing secrets that could change the course of the Sabbat Worlds campaign. But the proposed raid is so hazardous, it's regarded as a suicide mission, and the Ghosts may have been in reserve for so long they've lost their edge. Haunted by spectres from the past and stalked by the Archenemy, Colonel-Commissar Gaunt and his Ghosts embark upon what could be their finest hour...or their final mission.

Good story but the performance made it a labor to finish. The narrator's range and tone of the important characters is very bad.

Good story, bad rendition

why have they replaced a narrator who could do subtle Irish accent for the characters with this one who gives silly voices to long running characters ?

terrible narrator

I know this book released first, before books 1 to 12. The story is excellent, but having listened to them in order, the narration change is a jarring experience. So much of a change, that for the first several hours I couldn't concentrate on anything, except the accent and pronunciation changes.

If you also come to this book after listening to the first twelve, which were narrated by the ever excellent Toby Longworth, I imagine you will be shocked at the change too. Don't even try to get used to what voice is who's, it won't do you any good. They're pretty much all Scottish now, which kind of suits the Tanith, but you won't agree with any of the voice differences, especially when you hear what Larkin sounds like now, for the love of the God Emperor, what did he do to poor Larkin?

If all the books were done by this narrator, we wouldn't be complaining, but they're not, and we have to suffer for most of the last 4 books. Consider yourself warned!

Excellent Story, narration not good for those coming from previous books.

After going through all the series with the brilliant Toby Longworth and becoming familiar with his narration. To move to James here was jarring and broke my immersion. The accent of the narration made it at times a lot harder to understand than previous books in the series.

Why not Toby?

Great story as always, but the change in narrator is jarring and just doesn't di the characters justice. I would have preferred the series unfinished than this

terrible narration

Trying to change the voices so massively of the characters really ruins it and there's also the changes in pronunciation to deal with.

Overall I enjoyed the story and the reading as I have with the earlier books. However who decided to change the reader mid-series deserves to be brought before the Comissariat. We've had over a hundred hours of these characters and all of a sudden everyone sounds and talks completely differently...

Only real issue with the actual reading I had was the Space Marines and why were they whispering or otherwise sounded like dying old men.

Great, but...

Thanks to Dan and James. Looking Forward to the Next in this Amazing Saga.

Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant.

the usual narrator for ghosts novels is way better but the story is brilliant

good story

The story was really good and I enjoyed some of the new characters out in, however the new voice actor was a shock and I felt he really struggled to match accents and tones to characters. Really soured the book for me.

Painful narration
