About this listen

A Horus Heresy Novella

After the Triumph at Ullanor, Jaghatai Khan led the White Scars to Chondax and then vanished from all sight. Only after years of war against the orks does his story become known...

Listen to it because

This is the first time the White Scars have been shown in any detail in the Horus Heresy series. In this book, their trademark method of war is demonstrated to brutal effect against the unfortunate remnants of an ork empire. And a unique structure contrasts how the White Scars see themselves and how the Imperium views them.

The story

As word of Horus's treachery spreads to fully half of the Legiones Astartes, Terra looks to the remaining loyalist Space Marines to defend the Imperium. One group, however, remains curiously silent in spite of apparent efforts from both sides to contact them—the storied V Legion, Jaghatai Khan's fearsome White Scars. In the ork-held territory of Chondax, a bitter war has been raging since the Triumph at Ullanor, and only now do the sons of Chogoris return their gaze to the heavens...

Nice to finally hear about this mysterious legion and its progenitor, but my being starved of it does not quite make up for how short and narrow-focused this is. Narration cannot be faulted and I quite enjoyed both actors’ performances, but I don’t feel like giving them full marks when the standard set by others is so high. A good read, but not enough for the price.

Satisfactory, though a little meager.

How refreshing to hear a different type of voice in the Warhammer series. Adds a very interesting layer of exoticism that fits the White Scars, and I really like it! Jonathan Keeble is a great narrator, but his characterisations in the original version definitely did not age well into 2023. Well done to Black Library for updating it! This version definitely works better in this current social/political climate. It must be daunting to replace a legend such as Jonathan Keeble, but I thought the new narrator did a very commendable job and he has such a surprisingly soothing resonance to his voice. Looking forward to hearing more!

It is basically three short stories in one, they were all just fine, but I can’t say I liked them a lot. Each one of them did offer some interesting insights into the white scars though, so that was a highlight of the book, especially the white scars’ opinions on orks and the way their psychers go through the trial. Overall I’d say it was just alright.
