About this listen
A Carcharodons audiobook.
With a millennia-long hunt close to its end, Carcharodons Chaplain Manu must redouble his efforts as he ventures into the nightmare city of Commorragh.
Listen to it because: this is your chance to learn more about the secretive savages of the Carcharodons Astra as they tangle with some of the most terrifying predators in the galaxy...almost as terrifying as themselves.
The story: in the darkness beyond the galaxy, there are monsters. Some swim closer to the light, drawn by the beacon that is the Astronomican, while others stalk the Void, predators in the dark. The Carcharodons have hunted for millennia, but now they are drawn into a new blackness...the Dark City of the drukhari itself. Commorragh.
For a thousand years, Chaplain Tangata Manu has searched for a relic lost under his watch - an ancient thing, once charged into the keeping of the Forgotten One himself. But at the brink of seeing his hunt fulfilled and the relic returned, it is stolen from under him. Now, if Tangata would see his honour restored, he must lead his hunt against some of the vilest predators the galaxy has ever seen, before they can turn the artefact to their own purposes....
Written by Edoardo Albert. Narrated by Gareth Armstrong.

good intro to the Carcharadons
Good story, good narration and performance. would have liked more of the lore fleshed out but I'd recommend it.

Pretty good.
Some people like bolterporn with simple characters and a simple story... and I get that, life is complicated. Silent Hunters isn't that.
This isn't a simple story, the characters are diverse and the Drukhari in it vary from junkies to poets. This isn't Abnett but it isn't McNeil either...
I liked it.

Wow, we have another Abnet and Bowden people!!!
Amazingly written and narrated, this is a must. Incredibly impressed at Edoardo Albert with Gareth, I have over 200 black library books to date, I sincerely hope they both get more work, just excellent.

Really well written
...by Black Library standards. This is a well-constructed and brilliantly written story with a great depiction of Cacharadon lore and characters with enough depth to flesh out a story without straying too far from the tenets of their chapter. I will be looking out for Edoardo Albert for more to come.

Absolutely brilliant
I went into this one not overly sure what to expect. It didn't sound like it was going to be the typical Space Marine shooty extravaganza that readers of the Warhammer universes expect when they pick up a book with an Adeptus Astartes emblazoned on the cover.
Was it a typical shooter for bibliophiles? No.
Was that a bad or a good thing? A bloody amazing thing!
It feels like the folk at Black Library have tried to break the mould with this one by making it a more character-driven novel than your usual Space Marine experience. It's incredibly rare that, outside of the Horus Heresy (which has over 50 books in it, so I'd expect that to get a mention in this category) a Space Marine novel has me thinking how deep the characters are and how in-depth the world-building is.
We get the background of a chapter that, to my knowledge, hasn't been fleshed out yet. We get some seriously cool, non-Space Marine characters and some incredible looks into not only the society of the Dark Eldar, but their psychology as well.
The writing is paced excellently and had me not wanting to stop when my brain was really insisting that I do other things. All in all, this was a breath of fresh air that I wasn't expecting and I feel it hits a little harder because of having so little expectation of what I was going to get.
Hopefully more of my random Black Library pick ups are as enjoyable.
The narration was as close to perfect as you could get and the characters felt more alive because of Gareth's work in this.

Great book for any 40K fan
Really enjoyed the journey you went on with these characters. A good insight into the chapter and also the dark elder and their ways of life. Am going to listen back again for sure, I enjoyed it that much.

a lesser known author & chapter
great stroy about a chapter that doesn't get frequent attention. the author is new to me but I'll be sure to keep an eye & ear out for any more of his contributions to the AOS & 40k universes.

Void Sharks
This is not a chapter of a astartes I know much about so it was very enjoyable to get lore and tactics from their perspective, add in the dark city and a really funny stim head (who I think deserves his own book) and the overall is a really good story superbly narrated, more please
