About this listen

A Flesh Tearers Novel

Having secured Baal, the Flesh Tearers receive timely reinforcements from the Indomitus Crusade. In that moment of hope, however, they realise they've not heard from their now isolated homeworld of Cretacia in far too long...

Listen to it because...

The Flesh Tearers are Sanguinius' wrath writ in flesh and blood. Spared extinction thanks to reinforcements from the Indomitus Crusade, they are the vanguard of the Angelic Host, securing Baal and its neighbouring worlds for the Great Angels and the Imperium. Yet in fulfilling their oath to the Lord of the Blood, they have isolated themselves from their homeworld, Cretacia – and there has been no word from the garrison left to hold it.

The story:

Ordered by Gabriel Seth to secure Cretacia, Chaplain Dumah and Apothecary Barachial set course for the Flesh Tearers' homeworld. But when they finally lay eyes on it once more, will they find a garrison standing firm, or a desolate wasteland scoured by their enemies? The Space Marines must walk in the footsteps of their chapter's mythic founder, and along the way they will learn what it means to embrace the Wrath of the Lost – or die trying.

The flesh tearers come across as bad as any chaos company. They clearly care not for mankind. Sanguinius weeps.

I like how it show’s different sides to the flesh tearers rather than just mindless brutes like world eaters. Gives good insight into the special role of a chaplain within a chapter of the blood.

Great story of the Flesh Tearers!

The flesh Tearers are always portrayed as barely holding on to the humanity, and this book puts that across, but I feel it went over the top with it. Whilst they are known to be angry and one of the most violent chapters, they are still sons of the Great Angel and should have more about them than just “me angry, me no like what you say, me want to crush you, me thirsty, you look tasty”.

Maybe with the being Primaris could be an excuse as they do not have the grounding a first born raised on cretatia would, surrounded by the chapters home world and history.

Hopefully there is a follow up so we can see if being on the home world does indeed ground and stabilise these angry boys.

Narration is good, it’s not Toby Longworth good, but it’s still good.

Pacing of the book is slow.
