Here's an update from
The Black Library, which has come as a bit of a surprise. I last mentioned the trilogy of
Horus Heresy
stories in August and suggested then that the release schedule was a
bit of a mystery. My guess now is that the information I had then about
the CD version of this story was accurate and that it will be released
in April 2013, although I hadn't realised that this mp3 version would be
available for download now...
Having
listened to the extract, my contribution seems to consist of possibly
yelling a bit at the beginning (?), with the majority of the clip
featuring Ramon (basso) and Toby (basso profundo). The artwork also
seems to be the same as the image used for
Grey Angel, although it's possible that neither will be used as the actual CD cover.
Anyway, here's a synopsis, a link to the clip and some artwork to look at:
As
the renegade forces of the Warmaster storm across the galaxy, a very
different kind of war rages in the shadows of the Imperium – the Knights
Errant, chosen of Malcador himself, move quietly in the dark places
where others cannot. Battle-captain Nathaniel Garro makes his way to the
Imperial Fists’ mighty starfort Phalanx, seeking out another kindred
soul for his elite band of warriors.
Performed by John Banks, Toby Longworth and Ramon Tikaram.
Written by James Swallow & Directed by Ken Bentley

Garro
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mark-Anthony
Bought it and listened to it, I liked the 'twist' at the end,
well done :) Toby Longworth does an excellent job when it comes to
narrating, John Banks seems to have an affinity when it comes to voicing
Librarians whilst Ramon Tikaram's voice was superb for Rogal Dorn.
James Swallow has created an unforgettable character in Nathaniel Garro
and together with John French's Grey Angel, Burden of Duty makes for a
great listen.
