After seven years of bitter war, the end has come at last for the conflict known infamously as the Horus Heresy. Terra now lies within the Warmaster’s sights, the Throneworld and the seat of his father’s rule. Horus’ desire is nothing less than the death of the Emperor of Mankind and the utter subjugation of the Imperium. He has become the ascendant vessel of Chaos and amassed a terrible army with which to enact his will and vengeance. But the way to the Throne will be hard as the primarch Rogal Dorn, the Praetorian and protector of Terra, marshals the defences.

Summary
A Warhammer 40,000 audiobook
Following on from Urdesh: The Serpent and the Saint, the focus is once again on a small handful of Space Marines in the city of Ghereppan on Urdesh. The Iron Snakes must decide for themselves if the cryptic message of Saint Sabbat can be taken for the truth or if the sinister Magister Sek is leading them all into a trap.
Listen to it because
This intimate story gives us a new perspective on how Space Marines fit into the broader context of an Astra Militarum-led war effort. The actions of a single squad of superhuman warriors can have far-reaching effects on the campaign.
The story
Saint Sabbat has brought a miracle to the war-torn city of Ghereppan, but one battle is not the war. The voice of Magister Sek still haunts the Imperial forces, defying their victory, mocking their faith.
Between the trickery of the Archenemy and the mercurial visions of the Saint, the Space Marines of Damocles Squad must find the truth: is this their one chance for a final victory on Urdesh, or is it a trap that could destroy them all?
Written by Matthew Farrer. Narrated by Harry Myers.

Snakes & eaters
World Eaters that is, and to be honest I was surprised that just one chaos marine albeit world eater could cause so much damage to the snakes? The story for me was much better than the first book and had a few mentions for Gaunts fans (me!) great narration by Harry Myers

It's a long fight
I am glad I got to the end and I am proud of the characters and their achievements in this book. I always wondered how one of the Gaunt's Ghosts books got to where they were and now I know how it all played out. Reading or rather listening to this book was very rewarding.

decent story but voice actor ruins it
The voice actor was monotone and terribly boring to listen to, it was very difficult because of the monotonous drone of the authors voice to even enjoy or follow the story.
