Story
The Night Lords were once among the most potent forces of the Imperium, Space Marines who used fear itself as their weapon. Now, cast adrift from the Emperor's light and hunted as heretics after their monstrous betrayal, the Night Lords clad themselves in symbols of death and fight the Long War, bringing pain and terror to all who worship the corpse-god of Terra. A summons from Warmaster Abaddon sends these rebels on a dangerous journey that leads inexorably to a conflict with the Emperor's chosen warriors, the Blood Angels.

Fantastic 40K short
For only just over an hour, this book gives you just enough of each character from the Night Lords series and is a fantastic filler story between Soul Hunter and Blood Reaver. Each performance is stellar and while some of the marines lack the hiss in their voices from the main books, I was enthralled from beginning to end. Hearing all that on top of a full soundtrack and very well placed sound effects have me giving this a strong reccomend to anyone looking for more Night Lords especially as a huge fan of the main Dembski-Bowden series.

Good story, wrong voice acting
It felt wrong having different voice actors all of a sudden. Instead of the rough accented English in book one they're all speaking British-English? Doesn't do it for me.

I really enjoyed this book, but I found it to be too short. perhaps I am just too used to other 40k books that i have read or listened to. it was worth my time to have a listen though.
