Every two weeks we read a new book in the WH40k universe and discuss it on our podcast. We invite you to read along with us and join in on our conversation via comments, Twitter, Discord, email, or vox cast.
For this episode, we’re reading the remainder (see list below) of The Dark Coil: Damnation collection by Peter Fehervari, Nocturne. You can purchase it at Amazon, Black Library, and (according to Warhammer Community), the audiobook for the novel, Cult of the Spiral Dawn, will be available soon. Unfortunately the novella and short stories don’t appear to be on audio!
From the back of the book:
The Coil is a vast tangle of plot threads that extends across space and time, connecting characters, places, and events, often in bizarre ways, with people slipping from one story into another, occasionally via fissures in the skin of reality. The Dark Coil can also be considered an expression of Chaos – a manifestation that has infiltrated our universe via its constituent tendrils.
