About this listen

A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

The galactic core is beset by warp storms of a fury the Leagues of Votann have not seen for ten millennia. With both the Imperium of Man and the powers of the warp encroaching further and further onto the Kin’s territories, war reigns supreme amongst the coreward stars.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Hear what happens when a Hernkyn Prospect leader and her companions are plunged into a venture beyond their wildest expectations, and find themselves set against an ancient, deadly foe guarding a mysterious but magnificent prize.

THE STORY

Myrtun Dammergot, leader for the Kindred of the Eternal Starforge, is in her element, exploiting the unending conflict and living a life of adventure, without the unwanted burden of responsibility.

But when a messenger from her Kindred’s Hold ship brings news that upends everything she knows, responsibility, challenges, and opportunity come knocking.

A Gripping Introduction to a Fascinating World

I picked up The High Kahl's Oath on Audible out of pure curiosity, wanting to see what this new race and setting were all about—and I’m thrilled to say I wasn’t disappointed!

This book serves as an incredible introduction to a rich and immersive world, with characters and cultures that feel both fresh and deeply intriguing. The Iron Kin, in particular, captured my imagination; their role in this society is fascinating, and I found myself craving more details about their history and significance.

The story itself follows a straightforward yet compelling arc: one character stepping into leadership, taking on immense responsibility, and setting off on a quest for powerful artifacts, all while clashing with some formidable foes—including the ever-intimidating Orks. While the plot may not be overly complex, it’s the emotional weight of the protagonist’s journey and their desire to balance duty with adventure that truly drew me in.

The pacing is tight, the action is thrilling, and the worldbuilding is top-notch. If you’re a fan of high-stakes fantasy where the culture and characters truly shine, this is a must-read. I’m already invested in this world, and I can’t wait to see where the story leads next!

Good story with convoluted B plot that added little to the story

I enjoyed learning about the votan culture but Leckie is a terrible character that shouldn't have been in it and the narrator was a little flat

Good Story, bland narrator

I hate to say it but this narrator just doesn't fit for a novel about what are essentially space dwarfs. Comes across dull, bland and uninterested in what she is reading, shame as story seems very engaging.

Promising story let down by bland performance.

I really wanted to enjoy this book after waiting so long for the first book about the Leagues, but the narration was underwhelming and a poor choice for the setting with little energy or focus on making the characters stand out.

It was boring.

Feels like it was written 6 years ago when girl bossing was all the rage.

1st book for LOV

10/10 and a great new insight into the 40k world. GW has a great opportunity here to add a whole new perspective through their newest addition to the lore

Okay First book but a bit bland.

Felt like the narrator didn't fit the characters and very samey most way through out, also thought the Londoner accent didn't fit the characters.
Writing: It felt like several hours in before anything happened with very little pause to differentiate a change in location or time.

I just hope it goes better than Path of The Eldar in the future.

Bad choice of Narrator.

Unfortunately everything about this story was overshadowed buy the narrator. She couldn't make the male characters masculine enough and the feel of grim dark was lost as she couldn't create the atmosphere I love. If I had listened to the excerpt I would have realised and wouldnt have wasted a credit on it. Truly disappointed as I will have to buy a hard copy just to enjoy the story. Mistake made and I will now ALWAYS LISTEN TO THE EXAMPLES!
