Summary
The skitarii are the soldiers of the Machine God, the tireless legions of the Adeptus Mechanicus. Holy warriors, they carry the word of the Omnissiah across the galaxy, destroying the impure machines of aliens and renegades and spearheading the Quest for Knowledge.
A discovery of ancient technology sends a skitarii legion, commanded by Alpha Primus Haldron-44 Stroika, into battle on a forge world overrun by Chaos. When a cataclysm cuts him off from his tech-priest overseers, Stroika must rally his forces and battle both corrupt machines and Chaos Space Marines if he is to achieve victory.

a good look at the faction
it was enjoyable but not mind blowing, It gives the listener a good idea of the working and war fighting of the disciples of the omnissiah.

Started Strong, But Became Bland
I was really enjoying the rare look at the Skitari and Mechanicus operations, their details and politicking and thought I was in for a real treat, especially with the conceit being an interesting use of tech and lore. But once the main mission and action started it became rather a dirge of uninspired or interesting describe 'bolter porn' (or the appropriate Skitari Ordinance).
Longworth is always a great Warhammer narrator.

A must read for Mechanicus fans!
Brilliant audio book.
enthralling throughout, great showing for the mechanicus, especially the legiones skitarii. The author portrays a vibrant picture of the military forces of the mechanicus and the intrigues of Martian politics.
Skitarii unit, it is your doctrina imperative to upload this data directly to your cogitator. Omnissiah be blessed

Mediocre story and bad voice acting
One could argue that the lack of emotion would be fitting in a mechanicus audiobook but even tho i find it fitting storywise it’s very boring to listen to in my own opinion.
Storyline is very meh and i did not find this book too good. But then again that’s just my own opinion, hope you enjoy it if you decide to listen :)
