Free Audiobook : The End and the Death (Volume I), By Dan Abnett

The End and the Death: Volume I by Dan Abnett kicks off the final chapter of the Horus Heresy with a roar, narrated by Jonathan Keeble’s electrifying voice. Terra’s walls are shattered, its defenders broken, as Horus Lupercal, the Warmaster who turned traitor, closes in to kill his father, the Emperor. After seven years of galactic civil war, this audiobook plunges you into a crumbling Imperium where hope is a faint spark against a tide of Chaos.

The story weaves through the wreckage of humanity’s heart, following the Emperor’s desperate gambit to defy a seemingly unstoppable foe. Sanguinius, the angelic primarch, and loyal warriors like the Praetorian and the Captain rally for one last stand, but Horus’s foresight and the Ruinous Powers’ malice make victory feel like a cruel mirage. Abnett’s prose is a gut-punch, blending visceral battles with the raw grief of a dream dying, while Keeble’s narration makes every moment feel like it’s happening to you.

This is Warhammer 40,000 at its most intense, a sprawling epic for fans who’ve followed the Heresy’s sixty-book journey and newcomers craving a tale of betrayal and defiance. It’s not just a war story; it’s a descent into the human condition, where angels and demons clash inside and out. Get ready for a listen that’s as thrilling as it is haunting, leaving you hungry for what comes next.
