Summary
A Warhammer Horror audio drama.
On a world cut off from the Imperium, towering spires are lashed by endless rain. As citizens flee from the drowning city, a sadistic Imperial interrogator seeks a lowly data-drone with a terrible secret. But when disaster strikes, the pair must rely on each other for survival as the Watcher in the Rain awaits them.
Listen to it because: Hear a world in peril, with a magnificent soundscape acting as the backdrop to a thoroughly frightening tale of two enemies forced to work together against a darkness that will consume them both.
The story: In the far reaches of Imperial space, a ferocious warp storm approaches an Administratum world, cutting off the entire planet from the rest of the Imperium. As their towering grey spires are punished by endless rain, countless administrators, tithe-masters, and book-keepers are forced to evacuate. Among them is Greta, a lowly data-drone with a terrible secret, wanted for questioning by the sadistic Imperial interrogator Stefan Crucius. As disaster strikes and the pair are left stranded in the depths of the drowning city, captor and captive must cooperate to stand any chance of escaping. But a mysterious presence stalks them through the abandoned, flooded towers, a dread entity each must confront but which neither dare acknowledge, a Watcher in the Rain.
Written by Alec Worley. Running time 74 minutes. Performed by Matthew Hunt, Deeivya Meir, Melvin Rawlinson and Richard Reed.

well performed
a little stilted sometimes (people talking to themselves to explain to the reader what's happening), but some really cool moments as well.

An ending that made me shudder!!
I throughly enjoyed this story, I enjoyed the premise of being left behind on a slowly drowning world, there’s something bleak and incredibly terrifying about the ocean especially an alien one, there however wasn’t enough of the watcher enough so that I knocked a star off I’m afraid.
The ending though that got that lost star back through it made me audibly shout no!!!, it’s so bleak it’s amazing.
I feel like everyone who’s a Warhammer, horror or Lovecraft fan (Lovecraft fans may be disappointed however) should listen to this book.

Decent if not predictable
Fun story, well acted and the sound design was amazing. Not very surprising and a bit cliché but fine for a quick listen.

A perfect window into the Imperium's rotten core.
A haunting story, showcasing the darkest and most rotten parts of the imperium. An intriguing story with an unsettling atmosphere all around. The voice actors do an amazing job at portraying their roles, and the sound effects are on point. It's a fairly short audio drama, that I can't recommend enough!

Atmosphere was exactly the tone I love and the ending had me on edge
