A Warhammer 40,000 novel
Pride is everything for the dynastic kings of the Necron race, who have awakened after millennia to see their empires occupied by foul beasts and simple minds. For the Necron Lord Oltyx, the Ithakas dynasty was his by right, but the machinations of the court see him stripped of his position and exiled to a forgotten world.
Listen to it because
See the struggles of the Necron court from their own eyes, and discover the lengths one Lord will go to for the status they desire.
The story
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. And so he must return to the crownworld, and to the heart of the very court which cast him out. But what awaits there is a horror more profound than any invader, whose roots are tangled with the dark origins of the Necrons themselves.
Written by Nate Crowley. Narrated by Richard Reed.

AMAZING!
the book is easy to follow and it's been read incredibly! it must be hard to write about soulless robots, but the writer did an amazing job bringing them to life!

A Greek tragedy
Truly a great book that's made me 1000x more interested in the Necrons. It's basically a Greek tragedy of a family tearing itself apart, full of touching moments, while still incorporating quite a lot of humor. I did not expect a book about life-hating cynical 65M y.o egyptian robots that constantly struggle with the need to breath with no lungs to touch my heart strings with a brotherly drama epic, but here we are...
The protagonist probably has some of the biggest character development I've seen in a 40k novel, and he's a fucking cynical angry Necron...
The narrator does an excellent job, really portraying everything to perfection, even the screams of lunatic madmen (which I'd usually cringe at) were made very well.
If the Nighthauter trilogy is the best book series for Traitor Marines, this has to be the same for Necrons.
I cannot emphasise enough how much I loved it, I listened to the whole +/-11h of it in a single sitting. It was amazing and deserves its place as one of the greatest, on the same level (imo) as The Infinite And The Divine.
95/100

The story between the MC and his brother was truly touching and left me feeling all weird after their first meeting in the desert, where they talked to each other for the first time in 300 years and let a lot of things out that they'd been hiding for so long. The final hug between the two was truly heartwarming, as the end to a tale of brotherly love.
The subminds' endless bickering is also really endearing, making the cast highly colourful and easy to care for, which is much more than can be said for most 40k stories.
