A Warhammer 40,000 Audiobook

Since the T’au Empire annexed the world of Cao Quo, its benighted human population has caused setback after setback for their new rulers, resisting the light of the Greater Good. Now, an armed rebellion has taken root, led by the ruthless but brilliant Artamax – a Space Marine of the Raptors Chapter.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Explore the inner workings, politics, and challenges facing members of the T'au as they face a full-scale planetary insurrection from within their own empire. Can a selection of experts from across the castes come together to defeat this insurgency?

THE STORY

In a moment of crisis for the T'au Empire, the enigmatic ethereal Yor’i assembles an elite Elemental Council – a veteran Fireblade, a water caste spy, a peerless air caste pilot, and a maverick earth caste engineer – in the hope of curtailing the growing insurgency on the planet Cao Quo.

But as a full-scale planetary insurrection looms, enemies more cunning than Yor’i’s council could have imagined begin to surface from both sides, and Cao Quo soon finds itself teetering on the brink of being plunged back into a dark age of ignorance, and all-out war.

My first 40K book. Thought it was a great listen, especially for a Tau fan. I would recommend it to anyone interested in the faction!

The performance of the VA was phenomenal, and the book was downright enjoyable as a book -- not just a Warhammer book.

Great Tau Lore

Elemental Council feels like a love letter to warhammer fans as well as Tau fans specifically. The author uses the setting to address many of the myths and memes about the Tau, finding a perfect middle ground of making them true but not unreasonable, or formerly true but no longer. This is a story of living up to your own expectations, and the pressure of finding your place in a common cause. I’m very happy with how it turned out, and will be coming back to it again and again.

A perfect Ten

I had low expectations since all other Tau books I've listen to were okay at best (I even play Tau). But was I wrong. This is now in my top three of 40k novels now. I hope this author continues making new Tau Novels. I'm tired of Phil Kelly's version.

Exceeding Expectations

A book for Tau fans. A warning, your enjoyment will depend on how you feel about the characters and their arcs. Thankfully those characters and their arcs are great. The only real flaw was the antagonizing forces were kept shadowed a bit too long for my taste. It all came together excellently in the end though.

Not just good, it's a Greater Good.
