About this listen

The Custodian Guard have stood watch over the Emperor's Palace on Terra since the foundation of the Imperium. Charged with protecting the Master of Mankind from all threats, within and without, their fearsome resolve is renowned throughout the galaxy, and their golden armour is the last thing that a would-be assassin or saboteur will ever see.

Alongside the Null-maidens of the Sisters of Silence, who are anathema to psykers and sorcerers alike, there is no threat to the Golden Throne that they alone cannot vanquish...until now.

Perfect

This book is fantastic, well read and constantly interesting as well as action packed. Perfect for fans no matter their preferences of factions.

Its shows the reality of Terra in the 41st millennia, the sisters and custodes are presented as superior to others in the imperium of man but still human not the less. It shows their strengths, weakness and their perfection when they are separated or back to back.

Slow start, perfect ending

First part of the book is really slow, but it gets better towards the end.

absolutely superb!

Another great book by Chris Wraight, definitely one of black library's strongest authors. The cast of three actors really added to the audio, and complimented each other and the work exceptionally well.
