40K: Pre-Order Warhammer Adventures Audiobooks Today
As of today, you can secure a copy of the Warhammer Adventures Audiobooks, read by David Tenant and Billie Piper–both books are available to pre-order on Audible.com.
That’s right friends, as of today you can pre-order the first audiobooks in both of the Warhammer Adventures series–there’s one for 40K and one for the Age of Sigmar–and ensure that you can be among the first to hear the melodious sounds of the Tenth Doctor or Rose Tyler reading you a story about a bunch of children escaping from Necrons, or having adventures in the City of Lifestone. But, if you want to be in that first wave, you’ll need an Audible account, because the audiobooks are releasing there first, before being up on the Black Library’s own site. But if you’re already listening to audiobooks, chances are you have an Audible account anyway. Here are the details:
via Warhammer Community
Last month, Warhammer Community announced that David Tenant and Billie Piper would be providing the narration for the first releases of Warhammer Adventures. The Tenth Doctor and his Companion will be lending their voices to bring you the stories of Attack of the Necron and The City of Lifestone, and as the February release date looms closer, GW has news about the audiobooks and where you can find them.
The digital editions of the audiobooks will be launching exclusively on Audible in February, before coming to blacklibrary.com and the Black Library Audio App at a later date. This means that you’ll be able to start listening to them first through your Audible account – and you can buy them with your Audible credits! In fact, you can pre-order them from Audible right now.
What’s more, if you head to the Audible pages for Attack of the Necron, by Cavan Scott, and City of Lifestone, by Tom Huddleston, you can listen to extended previews of the books now. What are you waiting for? Get on over to Audible, start listening, and spend your credits on pre-orders!
Now it’s interesting that the books will be Audible exclusive for a while–this is likely due to the draw of the narrators, Audible, after all, is going to reach a much wider audience than the Black Library will. It’ll be interesting to see how far these books extend the reach of the worlds of Warhammer. At any rate, you can pre-order them today!
Attack of the Necron
Brave champions and the forces of the Imperium battle alien beasts and mechanical tyrants accross the gulf of space.
On the hive world of Targian, Zelia Lor helps her mother search for ancient tech, digging up treasures of the past on the wind-blown plains. They are happy. They are safe. All that changes when the Necrons attack. Without warning, a host of robotic ships appear in the skies above Targian and rip the planet apart. Separated from her mother, Zelia must escape the doomed world, her only hope a scrambled transmission promising safety at a mysterious place known only as the Emperor’s Seat. Launched in an escape pod, she crashes on an icy wasteland far, far from home. But Zelia is not alone. She is joined by a rag-tag group of survivors – the street-tough juve Talen, gadget-obsessed Martian boy Mekki and super-intelligent alien-ape, Fleapit.
City of Lifestone
Epic heroes, mighty armies and terrifying monsters clash against the backdrop of magical landscapes.
AdvertisementRaised as a slave in the Darkoath camps of Aqshy, Kiri dreams of a better life. Of a city of wonders, the place of her birth… Lifestone! She despairs of ever reaching it until a fateful day arrives when her barbarian captors are attacked by Sigmar’s noblest warriors, the Stormcast Eternals. Seizing her chance, Kiri flees through a mysterious realmgate that takes her far from the fiery lands of Aqshy. She arrives in the realm of Ghyran and finds the city of Lifestone. But a curse lies on this place, withering its noble spirit. Her path leads her to a special group of children who, like her, are realm-marked – the prophecised saviours of Lifestone. There’s Thanis, the fighter; Alish, the inventor; Kaspar; the sneak and Elio, the healer. But dark forces are allying against the children and will do anything to stop them achieving their destiny.
No word yet on if the same deal applies to the 2nd and third books in each series–but we imagine that will continue to be the case, so if you’re looking to listen to these and don’t have an audible account, now might not be a bad time to grab one.
