Well produced, with some interesting ideas, but had a hard time holding my attention.

Competent 40K story of Blood Angels investigating a dormant Tyranid Hiveship.

Decently written, just didn't really grab me.

I love boarding actions and this one is about boarding a Tyranid ship and that's way cool. Well done. The twist wasn't too surprising, but was well done.

You know what to expect from novels set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe: Lots of carnage and bloody battles fought between Space Marines, the genetically enhanced super-human warriors and the daemonic enemies of the Imperium of Man

These novels are never sophisticated or high brow, just pure entertainment and sometimes there is nothing wrong with that. If I just want to relax and read a book thats not to be taken too seriously but still provides excitement and enjoyment you will be hard pushed to beat Warhammer 40,000 novels (although it helps to be a sci fi fan)

This particular book is very entertaining, I listened to the audiobook and found it exciting and well put together. The characters voices, sound effects and music are very appropriate and atmospheric.

All in all an excellent introduction and well worth a listen!
