SCIENCE FICTION REVIEW: Thunder From Fenris - Nick Kyme

BOOK BLURB:

A brand new story exclusively available as an audio drama on CD complete with musical score, the sounds of the Warhammer 40,000 universe and professional voice acting.
A zombie plague blights the ice world of Skorbad, a planet that is ravaged by war. A heroic band of Space Wolves are sent in to break the deadlock, but these are not just any sons of Leman Russ - they are thunderwolf riders, an ancient brotherhood, warriors of myth and legend.
During the hunt for the corrupted propagators of the plague, one of the Space Wolves succumbs to the wulfen curse. Suddenly it isn't just zombies that these feral heroes face in the darkness. Amid the ruins of Skorbad, the Space Wolves must save their fallen brother before a much more horrifying truth is revealed.


REVIEW:

With the recent breaking out from the conventional aspect of publishing to audio publishing, you know that when a tale arrives from the Black Library that you’re going to get a great tale. Within this audio offering not only do you get solid narration but also elements that will not only keep you hanging on every word. Add to the mix a mythical subchapter of the Space Wolves alongside a plague of undead and you’ve got all the ingredients for an epic battle. Cracking offering and one that will continue to build upon BL’s rapidly growing reputation for quality audio recordings.

Haven't listened to an audiobook in a while, but might have to give this a try.
