About this listen

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).

Its as good as I had hoped

Having read the book, this is my favourite in the entire Ghosts series and my hopes were set high. The overall theme of desperation, the way Abnett describes the intensity of the combat, the hallucinations/visions: everything had me glued. You also get some nice bits of character development for a few supporting characters which is great. Toby Longworth as usual did amazingly with the characters. Yes there's a lot of them but if you've made it to book 11 then this is no issue. he did a a great job conveying emotions of the characters during their hallucinations, getting the "I am going crazy" thoughts across to the listener. Pacing of narration is good, the action sequences speed up a bit to match the frantic situations. Character's thoughts are made to sound like they're talking to them self and it brings you into their mind. Obviously that should be done with any audiobook, but the GG series is very reliant on the presentation of it's characters so it's especially crucial here, Toby Longworth definitely hit the mark

All in all, this audiobook definitely did the original book justice, it was everything I had hoped for. As usual, Toby Longworth combined with Abnett's storytelling proves to be a fantastic combination
