About this listen
Book one in the Ahriman series.
Cast out of his Legion, the sorcerer Ahriman, who condemned the Thousand Sons to an eternity of damnation, plots his return to power and the destruction of his foes.
Listen to it because: experience the beginning of an epic, time-twisting saga of revenge, betrayal and attempted atonement. John French takes the Ahriman you know and love from the Horus Heresy in new and interesting directions, making him both deeply sympathetic and thoroughly evil.
The story: all is dust.... Spurned by his former brothers and his father, Magnus the Red, Ahriman is a wanderer, a sorcerer of Tzeentch whose actions condemned an entire Legion to an eternity of damnation. Once a vaunted servant of the Thousand Sons, he is now an outcast, a renegade who resides in the Eye of Terror. Ever scheming, he plots his return to power and the destruction of his enemies, an architect of fate and master of the warp.
Written by John French. Narrated by Mark Elstob.

Forced and annoying voices
Reader fakes voices to the point of annoyance eg the navigator. Compared to other voice actors reading for Black Library.

Narration was hard to get through
Some of the voices just didn't work. Almost didn't finish it. Won't be continuing the series anytime soon

A good look into Ahriman
In this book you get a really good look into what Ahrimans thought process is. Also you get to see him grow immensely and find himself after the ruins of the rubric. This is a really good book with a good supporting cast and a great narrator

The reader has about 1687 voices!
Great story, a must be for Thousand Sons enthusiasts. And it's being read by one man with about 1963 voices. Give or take... 7. A completely mind blowing performance.

very good book
it's an amazing book Loved the story as a whole i just don't think that the narrator was right for the book and I used the same couple of voices which made me confused some characters together

A Gem
This book is awesome!
Not only does it give a rare look into what life is like for those who have fallen to chaos (it’s not fun) but it also follows one of the most interesting anti-heroes in the 40k universe. There is a good mix of action, sorcery and betrayal. If you loved the thousand sons novels and wondered what happened next, look no further. This book is so, so good.
A note about the narrator:
Audiobooks can live or die on the strength of their narrators.
I’ve listened to almost all the 30k/40k audio books now and I have to say that Mark Elstob ranks up there with veterans like Toby Longworth and Johnathan Keeble. I really enjoyed his character voices - he’s got the chaos sorcerers and the fallen space marines to a T. I am looking forward to his reading of the rest of this series!!

Great introduction to Ahriman
Shows Ahriman as more than a two dimensional character, explaining his contradictions and his desires.

Good story Great narration
Not a huge fan of thousand sons tales and when I have read or listened to stories of Ahriman they have been during the Horus Heresy and I prefer him as was not as is, what lifts this book to a higher level is the narration, Mark Elstob is simply outstanding and I probably would have given up on this book but for him narrating

I think its a fairly good story, a bit cookie cutter in places.
the narration is terrible , like god awful. space marines sound like nasaly old men and ahriman and amon sound like they have some form of autism that means they can't talk unless it's in a sing songy old gandalfish impression from a theatre performance. it took alot longer to finish it because of how bad the narrator was .
