Into the Storm

Book One of The Malcontents

By: Larry Correia

Narrated by: Ray Porter

A knight of Cygnar follows a strict moral code. His integrity is beyond reproach. He holds himself to the highest standards whether dealing with friend or foe. And he values honor above all.

The year is 606 AR, and Cygnar has been sorely pressed by its enemies both at home and abroad. In Caspia, the conflict with the Protectorate is about to erupt into full war with the looming invasion of Sul. The Cygnaran military is desperate for soldiers with the skill, strength, and bravery to take up the devastating galvanic weaponry of the new Storm Division. In this climate, every soldier is valuable, even those fallen from the honor expected of a Storm Knight. A group of such men - thieves, drunkards, and worse - comprise the Sixth Platoon. All they need is someone to lead them.

Lieutenant Hugh Madigan, a peerless warrior knighted during the reign of deposed King Vinter IV, has spent years in obscurity, punished for his loyalty to the former king. Now he has been ordered back to the front and given command of the Sixth, his task to turn a platoon of miscreants into elite soldiers fit to be called Storm Knights. Time is short, and war is coming. One way or another, Lieutenant Madigan must lead his men into the storm....

superb

scifi military action. solid action, great world where robots fight alongsude armored infantry. Like a Warhammer in an alternate universe

Enjoyed this one.

This book is almost as good as the ones in the Hard Magic series. There are books by this author that I have not found particularly interesting as I am probably one of the few that doesn’t enjoy Monster Hunters. This one is pretty good. Quick action and a fair amount of characterization. Not much on background of the characters but the action is exciting and keeps the book rolling along. I always have enjoyed this authors combination of steam punk and adventure. There’s not a wasted word. I will be getting the next book in the series.

A fantastic venture into the Iron Kingdoms

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I play Cygnar myself in Warmachine and this is exactly what I want from a Warmachine book. It's inspired me (like others I'm sure) to do themed Stormblade conversions of the characters from the book and hopefully the Warjack as well

A fun listen. Well written as well as good pace

Nicely written good story spiced with humor. A fine pace to the plot. Narrition was excellent

an amazing tale

loved it.

amazing. a true story teller weaving a tale of chivalry, injustice and general bad-ass fighting.

2 thumbs up!
