Exile to the miserable world of Sedh, the disgraced Necron Lord Oltyx is consumed with bitterness. Once heir to the throne of a dynasty, he now commands nothing but a dwindling garrison of warriors, in a never-ending struggle against Ork invaders. Oltyx can think of nothing but the prospect of vengeance against his betrayers, and the reclamation of his birthright. But the Orks are merely the harbingers of a truly unstoppable force. Unless Oltyx acts to save his dynasty, revenge will win him only ashes.

Many are the xenos foes who plague mankind's Imperium. Ancient races which once ruled the galaxy, such as the aeldari and necrons, lurk in the darkness, awaiting their chance to reclaim what was once theirs. Younger races like the upstart T'au Empire grow in power and influence, ever eager to topple humanity and take their place. And across the galaxy, the savage orks wage brutal war, fighting all in their path simply for the joy of battle. This audio drama anthology contains eight tales of the aeldari, the orks and the T'au Empire.

In the dark corners of the Mortal Realms, the mad and mysterious Gloomspite Gitz go to war, following the trail of their abominable lunar deity. Nowhere is beyond the sight of the Bad Moon—not even those places under Sigmar’s protection, like the sweltering city of Draconium. Beneath the scalding rains of Aqshy, the city is a boiling pot of tension, its regent praying to Sigmar for guidance while Watch Captain Helena Morthan douses the fires of anarchy: blades drawn in the streets, heretical doomsayers preaching the end of days, and insects eating watchmen alive.

Before the being called the Emperor revealed himself, before the rise of the aeldari, before the necrontyr traded their flesh for immortal metal, the world was born in violence. Even when they inhabited bodies of flesh, Trazyn the Infinite and Orikan the Diviner were polar opposites. Trazyn, a collector of historical oddities, presides over a gallery full of the most dangerous artefacts - and people - of the galactic past. Orikan, a chronomancer without peer, draws zodiacs that predict and manipulate the future.

Great story
The tau are my favorite faction in this franchise but that does not mean I'm going to be biased with that said this short story was great a bit confusing with jumping g around between the battles but that's just a knit pick other than that this story just justice to my favorite blueberries and really shows that they can be just as badass the space marines. This in my opinion is a must read for tau fans.

I really enjoyed both the short stories, it gave insight into the trials and tribulations of the average fire warrior. It shows all the reason why I like the Tau - the naive optimism, the collective goal, bravery in the face of overwhelming odds. I may get stuck from people for being a huge Tau fanboy, but i’ll stick by my (plasma) guns.

Absolutely brilliant, as if written by a real Tau
The use of drones and in game lore made this book great.
You really feel like you are following this Pathfinder through the mud and blood to find his vengeance.
Though the story has flash backs which could be made to be more separate from the story. sometimes you think you are listening to current events and then it turns out to be a flash back which can be quite confusing.
Even so, still a brilliant book well worth a read 😊
