By: Dan Abnett

Narrated by: Toby Longworth

Book 11 in the Gaunt's Ghosts Series

Given a vital mission and beset by vicious enemies from without and terrifying ghosts from within, the Tanith First must prepare to give their all - for only in death does duty end.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Gaunt's Ghosts meet literal ghosts in a haunted house story that ties back into many events from the series so far, and gives the Tanith – and the reader – closure on some of the most tragic deaths...

THE STORY

The Sabbat Worlds Crusade has reached the fortress-world of Jago, and the Tanith First are given a vital – and dangerous – mission to defend a key pass against the enemy, garrisoned in an ancient mansion, the Hinzerhaus. Strange things are happening there. There are voices on the wind, and people are disappearing. With the enemy outside and ghosts within, Colonel-Commissar Gaunt and his men must face their fears – for only in death does duty end.

Written by Dan Abnett. Narrated by Toby Longworth. Run time 11hrs 29mins (approx).

10/10

Another wonderful book, wonderful plot twists. Probably one of the best books in the series!

One of the very best in the series

Although slow to start, Dan Abnett's latest installment is an impressive feat of paying off every set up, some of them many books ago. Just when I felt like I could detect a turn into past formulas the narrative turned on itself again and this became one of the more truly emotional Black Library books I've ever read. Toby Longworth of course is also brilliant throughout in his voice performance. Somehow these two keep knocking it out of the park.

Best in the Series

First half is a creepy mystery, 2nd half holy crap how the heck are they going to get out of this one!

The Voice acting was especially good

The Voice acting was especially good but this actor has been voicing this series as I’ve listened to it, and he changed some of the peoples voices. Which can make an already chaotic story, a bit harder to follow.

This Specific Book Should be Heard If You Read It

There is a return character that all of you know. hearing the voice actor return the lost characters voice but then detail their current condition, really hit home. In a way that it doesn't do when you read it. if your on the fence somehow aftet getting this far in the audio books series, yes get this one.
