About this listen

After Isstvan, after Deliverance, the Raven Guard still endure. Their primarch Corvus Corax has rallied countless warriors to his banner, striking back at the forces of the Warmaster on every front - from the degenerate hereteks of the Mechanicum to the cruel legionaries of the Sons of Horus, none shall escape his wrath. But although Corax has managed to stall the physical corruption of his own Space Marines, what of their spirit? And what sinister end must await those who dwell forever in the darkness?

This anthology contains all of Gav Thorpe's tales of the Raven Guard in the Horus Heresy - the novellas Soulforge and Ravenlord, and short stories The Shadowmasters, The Value of Fear and Raptor. Also included is the brand-new novella Weregeld, taking Corax's legend to its grim conclusion.

What listeners say about Corax

Highly rated for:

The Audiobook Delves Into The Lore And Stories Surrounding The Raven Guard Legion And Their Primarch Corvus Corax During The Horus Heresy Events In The Warhammer 40k Universe. While The Engaging Stories, Detailed Lore, And Compelling Anthology Are Praised, Some Criticize The Rushed Character Development, Lack Of Depth, And One-dimensional Portrayal Of Moral Dilemmas. Overall, The Book Provides An Intriguing Narrative For Fans Of The Raven Guard, But May Be Confusing Without Prior Knowledge Of The Context.

Great Collection on the Ravenlord

I really enjoyed this look into the secret world of the Raven Guard Space Marines. All in all, I thought that this was a very well done listen.

Lots of fanfare for the Raven Guard

Just like how "The Path of Heaven" (Book 36) was an awesome deep dive into the current state of the White Legion, this is all about the Raven Guard. If you're a fan of them, or what their goals are within the remaining Horus Heresy then this is your book.

Corax is awesome

Loved all the interactions between Corvus and his legionaries especially. Let’s us see where he draws the line.
If you like corax/the raven guard, this is a very good series of stories, some of which of like follow-ups to the previous. Love the ridiculous amount of Stormbirds and whisper cutters as well.
Last story was a little sad, especially the end, though maybe not what you’d expect.
Would recommend if you like the raven guard.

great book for an under rated primarch

I wish the voice acting was more consistent, because the middle was absolutely perfect. But it wavered a bit in places.

Relies heavily on previous works

If you have not read the previous novel and short stories featuring the Raven Guard Legion, most of this otherwise decent collection will make little to no sense. Get the other books first.

Must Have for Raven Guard fans!

I wish this compilation had Raven's Flight in it, but its not bad without.

Detailing Corax's exploits post Deliverance Lost and leading up to the events of the Siege of Terra, its a fitting anthology to bring closure to the Raven Guard.

I'm not crazy about the narration compared to other Black Library talent but its well-produced.
