About this listen

A Primarchs Anthology

Explore the histories and motivations of the primarchs across six short stories that will take you to the depths of the Cthonian Utterdark, the wilds of Fenris in winter, and even to the holy soil of Terra itself.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Get new insights into several of the primarchs in tales set across the Great Crusade and the Horus Heresy.

DESCRIPTION

A weak Cthonian boy forges a bloody destiny among the stars. Tribal warriors hunt a beast in the Fenrisian snows. Prosperine sorcerers seek hidden secrets. The Emperor's Praetorian shows his ruthless side. Alpharius submits to questioning over a brutal campaign, and Mortarion returns to Terra for the first time since his ascension to daemonhood.

Each of these six tales provides you with a new look at one of the primarchs, the demigod sons of the Emperor. Once brothers-in-arms, these legendary heroes fell into war and strife, loyalist and traitor. But each remains a mighty lord of warriors and leader of men, and each has tales to tell…

The voice artist breathes real life into these characters! Brilliant work from all involved. Black Library once again brings 40K to life, can't recommend this collection of short stories enough.
