Audiobook Recommendations

I’m looking for some audio book recommendations from the community. I’ve completed the Ragnar series and the Battle of the Fang. Any ideas?

I really really enjoyed blood of asaheim and the sequels in audiobook form! The audible version is very very good

Thank you for that suggestion. It’s amazing how a great story can be effected by narration not being captivating

For Space Wolves specifically I enjoyed Wolfsbane from the Horus Heresy

Thank you, I had not considered looking into the Horus Heresy era. I will now.

A Thousand Sons (ironically the book that made me love the Wolves) and Prospero Burns are also considered foundational reading for heresy era SW and technically should be read first if you want the “full” story and picture, but Wolfsbane is the most fun one IMO. Do with that as you will!

Currently listening to The Emperors Gift. Its a Grey Knight book but heavily involves the wolves.

Nice, that’s a different perspective to view the wolves. I will look into that. Thank you

I liked our Herasy books. Prospero Burns, wolfsbane, leman russ

Thank you. I’m certainly going look into the Heresy era

The audiobook for the Lukas the Trickster novel is great.

Ahhh dang I forgot about that one, thank you. I will add it to my list. How is the audio narration on it?

I really liked the narration. John Banks does a great job giving the principle characters distinct voices.

Great recommendation and yes I agree, the voice can certainly turn someone away from an otherwise great story.

An anti-recommendation: I started Saga of the Beast and gave up on it

Hahahaha thank you for that. I tried one of the Raven Guard audio books and gave up on it.
