Summary
A Grey Knights Novel
Two aspirants are recruited into the Grey Knights, and must hone their psychic talents if they are to join the hallowed and mysterious ranks of the Space Marine daemon hunters.
LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE
It's a deep exploration of the Grey Knights and the events surrounding the First Armageddon War... including an appearance by the fearsome Angron, daemon primarch of the World Eaters.
THE STORY
The Grey Knights are all that stands between humanity and the ravages of Chaos. Since their secretive beginnings during the Horus Heresy, these legendary Space Marine daemon hunters have journeyed into the dark realms of the warp – and beyond – in pursuit of their supernatural enemies. Through an intensive regime of psychic training, new recruits are brought to the clandestine fortress of Titan to join the hallowed and vaunted ranks of the 666th Chapter.
More than ever, these legendary battle-brothers must be vigilant and ever ready to defend the Imperium – for the forces of Chaos are never truly defeated, and Armageddon beckons.
Written by Aaron Dembski-Bowden. Narrated by Christopher Kent. Running time 12 hours, 28 minutes (approx).

This is good one
There’s a description of a relic warrior coming before the Inquisition which is worth the price of the audiobook

The Grey Knights even have to chill out sometimes
This was a great read, well performed and structured . Nothing ground breaking but the scale of ranks and power levels are well done when the fighting happens and when it doesn't the right level of drama is enacted. No good guys here only grey (pardon the pun).

Gray kings have it rough
One of my personal favorites. this book made me understand and apriciate those dudes from Titan. and like wolf's even more. First part of the book was kinda mid but following half telling the story of Months of shame is god tier.

Great book, even if the Grey Knights do get mugged off
I had heard rave reviews about this book and I even managed to get a copy of the print version but 6 months later I haven’t gotten around to reading it so I got the audio. It’s a great book as I’m a grey knights fanatic.
The books is essentially 2 stories - the war on Armageddon and the aftermath. The book proves once again that the inquisition is basically based on ‘that order that started WW11’ using incredibly inhumane methods to meet and end that, can be avoided and handled without the loss of billions of lives.
Anyway, love the grey knights but here they smash demons half the book then get made to look like absolute mugs by the grey wolves in the second half….. so much so that you wonder why they were ever created if there are better incorruptible forces out there… still that aside it’s a great book albeit more favourable to the Wolves in character building and leading to other stories than Grey knights.

An informative and engaging Grey Knights story
Learn about and experience Grey Knights abilities (both physical and psychic), combat, lore, triumphs and defeats in a well rounded and engaging story from a Grey Knight perspective.
The narration is excellent and fits the pov of a Grey Knight.

Absolutely Outstanding
It has been a long wait for this on Audible; I read the hardcover on it’s release.
Listening on Audible, it truly is one of the finest Space Wolf books written.
It tells a tale from the Grey Knight’s perspective but the real heroes of the piece are the Wolves.
Audible/ the Black Library need to have Christopher Kent read ALL the Space Wolves books; this man truly gets them, Grimnar sounding like Cerdic the Saxon by Stellan Skarsgard in King Arthur.
If you want to start a journey with either of the two chapters in this book, there is no better place to begin than with this book.
Cannot recommend it enough.
