Summary

A Warhammer 40,000 Novel

Cypher has slipped his bonds on Holy Terra itself. Hunted by some of the most powerful forces the Imperium can muster, can he complete his mission before he’s apprehended?

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Cypher is one of the most mysterious figures in the galaxy, and this novel sheds light on his motivations and thoughts. Although, told from Cypher’s own point of view, his words are suspect by default...

THE STORY

As the Great Rift unfolds in the night sky above Terra and daemons walk upon the birth world of mankind, the Primarch Roboute Guilliman returns, heralding a dark new age.

During the breaking storm, Cypher and his band of Fallen escape from the most secure prison in the Imperium. Now loose in the Imperial Palace, they are hunted by warriors of the Dark Angels, forces of the Adeptus Custodes, and Imperial Assassins. But what are Cypher’s intentions? Can anything or anyone be trusted?

Told from Cypher’s own, unreliable point of view, this tale of truth, lies and secrets sees one of the Imperium’s most mysterious figures make war at its very heart. But what are the true motivations of the Lord of the Fallen?

Performance is above and beyond, bringing Cypher to life perfectly, writing style is spot on as well.

Exciting but a bit unsubstential story-wise

Some of the BL books of late have been disappointing of late but I enjoyed this about as much as I ever do and had to listen to all of it in one sitting.

Creates more questions than answers but that is part of the theme and in know way irritates, sprinkled with little throw away comments and thoughts by the protagonist that challenge assumed lore - like why so many psykers are sacrificed daily to the Golden Throne…no answer on why but clearly not for the reasons we thought.

Do you want to know a secret? Not yet…

Excellent
