This is literally everything I could want from a Warhammer 40K story. There's actual criticism of all manner of aspects the Imperium, both called out by the protagonist and show in the text, some action, a fascinating and perfectly embodied named character, an Astartes being appropriately immense, inhuman, and unforgiving.

The hypocrisy and awfulness is the point. Way too much in GW and BL lionise the Space Marines and Imperium, but this shows things as ridiculous and awful as they are and in a fun and compelling way.

Truly the cherry on top of a very mixed Dark Angels Audio Collection. ( )
