A Warhammer 40,000 audio drama collection
The Dark Angels are among the most steadfast and noble of the Space Marines - but their dark secret, the Fallen they relentlessly hunt, always threatens to bring an end to their legacy of honour....
Listen to it because:
The sons of the Lion take centre stage in six audio dramas that reveal the great deeds and dark moments of some of their most prominent heroes.
Description:
No matter the foe, regardless of the odds, the proud warriors of the Dark Angels stubbornly refuse to accept defeat. Descendants of the First Legion, they stand foremost amongst the Chapters of the Space Marines, mankind’s mightiest defenders. None fight with more grim determination than the Dark Angels, and their renowned special companies - the Deathwing and the Ravenwing - are held in awe by allies and enemies alike. Yet behind their devotion to the Imperium lies a dark obsession....

A Mixed Bag That Gets Progressively Better
Opens with two extremely average and unsatisfying shorts, followed by two slightly longer pieces that actually have some substance, and ends with a short that is just about the most perfect kind of 40K story, remembering that the Imperium aren't the good guys and that the Dark Angels' relationship with the Fallen is supposed to actually be interesting and heartbreaking, not just edgelord posturing.
Black Library audio work is almost always great and these are pretty fantastic.
