I'm just going to say it, this story was awesomely angsty.... I've been thinking of watching a teen film the past day or two and this satisfied that desire... loved the break for laughter in it hsha I said out loud "I think we are all losing focus" "Or atleast adjusting focus to what really matters" followed by more laughter on my part

You know, I think it's refreshing to hear a 40k story that isn't as sterile as the more modern material. And I don't think anyone can fault you for cracking up at the "doves" and "holes" part.
Always love coming back to this just to listen to you break at the "soft ring." What gets me is immediately after that he says he's not sure what shape it is. Even though he just said lol.
I want to take a second to thank you. I deal with chronic pain and for some reason listening to your long form videos is enough to put me to sleep. I do go back and listen to what I missed, but I'm happy to have it to hear.
Love this one. The stories where it's a bit more gritty and perverse are where it's at. Its supposed to be grim dark. The newer stuff can be a bit clinical. Thanks man
man, silly descriptions and creepy lines aside, this story was actually pretty damn cool, the concept is interesting and the robot was very disturbing and threatening. If it wasn't so gross I'd say this is some top notch grimdark
Take out the 'robot' part, and replace it with any other character, from any other Ian's books, and lo, your comment still perfectly describes any of them 🤭👌
Weird slaanesh stuff aside, this was a great story. The antagonist was actually a really cool concept, enjoyed that last section thoroughly. Made even better by your epic narration!
Gotta love the inquisition to even ponder the idea of sentencing 2 planets to death by bombardment and starvation all with one goal to eliminate a single person.
Aha! Looking up something on Lexicanium now, I found that this is the story where Grimm the Squat technician (before becoming part of Inquisitor Draco's retinue) in the original print (1990) was edited into Grill the Techpriest in this second publishing (2001)... because the canonicity of squats was in limbo around that time, they had not been seen* since the Titan Legions edition of epic, I think 1995 or so, and didn't make it into 3rd edition 40K. This explains Grill's fairly uncharacteristic, for a tech-priest, behavior, being so emotional... even by RT standards of writing, where much of the lore had yet to be established and writers had fairly loose reins, he seems a bit odd. The inhumanity and detached cold logic of the martian priesthood had already been set by then. * Think they had a semi-official armylist in Citadel Journal, but they were not in the main rules like the other armies in the 1997 Epic 40K edition, foreshadowing them being dropped by 1998.
The weirdest part for me was how the space marine chapter was letting a fucking inquisitor basically run them. Or how this inquisitor made them take ogryns with tusks as fellow troops. Space marines taking non-space marines into their formations? LOL. A chapter master letting an Inquisitor structure his chapter? This is fucking weird. The inquisitor would be dead the moment he stole a chaplain's robes. Unthinkable.
I know it can break the immersion of the story BUT, I love your school boy chuckle at the more "slanneshly" type references. Keep the stories coming, they're great 😉
About the sound proofing , sounds weird but just a layer of the square eggboxes or pallettes , with a layer of Matt paint causes the sound to be broken down into many tiny parts enveloped by egg cone holes and breaks the sound down a near hundred percent comparatively
I remember reading this as a lad, the Inquisitor series of books as well.. Great to hear it read by my favorite online fiction reader! Great reading, what a scary prospect for Johnny though Lol - description always made me chuckle. Yes, early 90's I think it was, remember were the first ever books. LOVED them then, great to re-visit it!
This was great! Deathwing was the first 40K book I got when there was only a couple out! This brings the feelz! Please do some of the others if you get the time and wish to do so! /subbed.
Yeah....these are the ones I remember reading. I eventually stopped because they were so weird. Thank god for Dan Abnett truly establishing the 40k Universe with Eisenhorn.
As i was told by my pa half way there not sure if you'll get it done she'll be right mate keep on keepin on also love your work always put a smile on my face
I thought it was a pretty good story. A bit of a happy ending for 40K but still entertaining. I love that fact that you don't hide your own reactions. We bust out laughing sometimes too. Cheers Prince!
I thought you did a splendid job. This was such an interesting story. Is there more of these characters? Also what microphones (make/model) do you use? Thanks again!
I'm just waiting for a really ronchy short story writer come by and be hired by gw, like most of it is gore and I don't think anyone needs anything too crazy or messed up, but the theme for Slanesh is sorta similar in most books. This one was incredibly...unique
Dude i love your content, I'm just curious how are you doing this? Games workshop isn't trying to copyright claim your videos? Can't they claim the source material?
I cant speak latin. You cant tell i know, im just saying......
Catching live, awesome! Probably get this a lot but how do you pick a story?
GCSE latin and a level latin was useless anyways hahah dont remeber anything

Pain glove is a better love story then debbie does Dallas twilight edition? Vampire version of 70s pornos... theres an idea
AFAIK no one really knows how Romans actually pronounced Latin. So dont worry about it ;D

who knows, ian, this could be my next movie.
Wait is this the illustrious scribe, Ian Watson?
Neeeeexxxxtttt moooooooovvvvvviiieeeee
What exactly was the joke in that line? Did he ever make a movie inspired by that... Book?
@@MisterZimbabwe It's a quote from an interview Kubrick gave Ian Watson I think.
Eye of Terror. That'd be a movie /netflix adaptation
I get a chuckle out of your reactions as you come across... interesting... portions of the narrative. x D
Ian Watson is clearly one of Slaneesh’s greatest champions
1:15:09 😁
One day I will listen all the way through one of these without falling asleep
Glad I'm not the only one!
A good narrator can do that. Happens to me as well.
But today is not that day!
Best sleep aid
I go to sleep to these every night
Awesome story with a positive end for a change!
a rarity
But, but Thunderjug
Omg I didn’t realize it was Ian Watson ...... it all makes sense now.

lol
An onion ring is a ring but is still any and every shape

Check out Oculus Imperia as well, always manages to get me to sleep if need be :)
Dude same. Getting lost in these stories lets me kind of disconnect from the pain enough to fall asleep. Most of the time at least
Love this one. The stories where it's a bit more gritty and perverse are where it's at. Its supposed to be grim dark. The newer stuff can be a bit clinical. Thanks man
Couldn't agree more. It's pump fiction: it's got to have edge.
By my roots, what an excellent story..
man, silly descriptions and creepy lines aside, this story was actually pretty damn cool, the concept is interesting and the robot was very disturbing and threatening. If it wasn't so gross I'd say this is some top notch grimdark
Take out the 'robot' part, and replace it with any other character, from any other Ian's books, and lo, your comment still perfectly describes any of them 🤭👌
I likes it
It really gives new meaning to the phrase "lovey dovey"
Would be cool to see a cameo in the "present day" c.112 M42 of an mid career Inquisitor Jomi (in his 130's or 40's) in some modern story.
Probably hanging around the Grey Knights, with his talent, if he's still alive...
A story by Ian Watson, author of the screenplay for Steven Spielberg’s film A.I. ? This should be horrifying. I mean, good.
Great job !! my favorite part is when you break character is your commentary is very funny. Keep up the good work, mate !
I've never heard a content creator apologize for their content so much when no one has said a thing.
Weird slaanesh stuff aside, this was a great story. The antagonist was actually a really cool concept, enjoyed that last section thoroughly.
Made even better by your epic narration!
Oh Johmmy and his dreams of doves... 🕊️ 🕊️ So well read!! I enjoy that you chortled along with me! 😂😂
RIP Thunder Jug....
Lol you don't need to do PSAs about your sound setup. You're a nice lad.

I thought my recall of the story had gone wrong because i remembered a squat being in the story, thanks for clearing that up :)
I have the original printing of this, and am sorta annoyed they edited the squats out.
The weirdest part for me was how the space marine chapter was letting a fucking inquisitor basically run them. Or how this inquisitor made them take ogryns with tusks as fellow troops. Space marines taking non-space marines into their formations? LOL. A chapter master letting an Inquisitor structure his chapter? This is fucking weird. The inquisitor would be dead the moment he stole a chaplain's robes. Unthinkable.
Weird tales by Ian Watson Oh grox me! Jaq Draco flashbacks intensifies....
Thank you so much for doing these, I listen to these in bed and when I go for a walk, really apprecate your efforts in doing these
I know it can break the immersion of the story BUT, I love your school boy chuckle at the more "slanneshly" type references. Keep the stories coming, they're great 😉
I love the announcement you sound like a well educated and well spoken ork no offense
well orks are partially a parody of british football hooligans
Perfect narration! I love this story especially the hairy part and slip in the hairy hatch!
I BLESS THIS! FLORIDA MAN!
Dude, I LOVE the, "what the fuck?!?!" stuff, PLease dont cut em out!! Its really cool to hear you crack up a little at some of it too.
Many thanks yet again amigo perfect timing as always ABP :)
There needs to be more stories featuring Ogryns.
Ahhh, the sewer goblin
Thats sewer goblin extrodinare to you!
This was a fun story, and IMO the sound quality was just fine.
Ian waatsoon seweeer gobliiin extrordinaaaair!
1:15:16 Thanks for not cutting out that little character break xD
Thank you for the entertainment.
*"Beware those who seem human but are not"* ... Seems like good advice regarding that rotting undying 'god-emperor'.
Do I detect trace amounts of heresy?
Absolutely heretical.
Ah yes Ian Watson my first 40k author...i was like 16 at the time...Nids bum...good times
Aww damn, I've heard this one before. It's a good one though!
About the sound proofing , sounds weird but just a layer of the square eggboxes or pallettes , with a layer of Matt paint causes the sound to be broken down into many tiny parts enveloped by egg cone holes and breaks the sound down a near hundred percent comparatively
Deathwing aswell first book i had about 20 years ago because of that dread on cover :O
i hope you do Kingsblade and Knightsblade some day any way thanks for the great story
It was the first wh40k novel for me!Still love it!
I enjoyed the worldbuilding very much.
Your narratives are what I look forward too, 👍🏾💯
Well that was something....50 shades of 40k anyone?
Awesome narration mate. A liked it. Cheers ABP.

The second I heard the name of the author, I immediately thought "sewer goblin"
That was mad, mad as a bicycle. You can tell it's old fluff too!
I love the old fluff
Bloody hell that story is more than 20 years old I rember reading it as a teenager
Any chance you could put a summary in the info just so we can see what its about plz
I wishi could afford the donate button... I really enjoy your work
no worries glad you like the stuff
This was great! Deathwing was the first 40K book I got when there was only a couple out! This brings the feelz! Please do some of the others if you get the time and wish to do so! /subbed.

That was frakkin excellent!!!!! The story was great and the narration was incredible mate!!!
Blood for the blood god, skulls for the skull throne, carrots for the Sterling!
I enjoyed that.
It was a good one..more please.
I was just thinking about this story a few days ago. Been years since I've read it!
Thanks for an awesome reading ;)
As i was told by my pa half way there not sure if you'll get it done she'll be right mate keep on keepin on also love your work always put a smile on my face
I think my favorite border prince is the giggle prince
Man, Ian Watson needs some serious therapy for his repression issues
Awesome as always! Thank you !
I loved this bizarre story.
Sweet goblin extraordinaire

Thank you
Gratitude sir
wow love the new start bro
I thought you did a splendid job. This was such an interesting story. Is there more of these characters? Also what microphones (make/model) do you use? Thanks again!
This was a good story. I love the more random ones as opposed to boilerplate marine battles
I'm halfway constructed is my battle cry! Sound was fine to me Prince.
Oh no the Ian Watson boys might peel our faces to pass as pople.
I'm just waiting for a really ronchy short story writer come by and be hired by gw, like most of it is gore and I don't think anyone needs anything too crazy or messed up, but the theme for Slanesh is sorta similar in most books. This one was incredibly...unique
Thank you , Prince .
Thank you broski! I have a friend who’s a sound engineer if you ever need advice or designs.
This is like sugar upon the porridge of death
"it's probabyl been written mid 90s, it's really old." That's when I was born hahaha. Now you making me feel really really old
Great story
What a great reading thanks AP
Nice and very interesting!

"The circle! Think of that!"😂
Theories on what it was? A Man of Iron, or just some old AI that got possessed?
I was under the impression that it was a Man of Iron that had become possessed. Or at least had gone made because of the demon whispering to it.
John Golden If true, I believe it would be the only first-hand description of a Man of Iron in the 40K universe
@@maxstr This is one of the earliest stories from the Black Library so you're probably right about that.
I love your giggles mid-story
its too much somtimes
Dude i love your content, I'm just curious how are you doing this?
Games workshop isn't trying to copyright claim your videos? Can't they claim the source material?
Sounds fine I was cracking up at this one also
I am devouring these books you're reading.
You breaking character is always funny.
"with foam and all that shit"
Lmao
Great read. Thanks. Have fun with "the playroom" ;)
Bwahahahaha. I laughed hysterically every time you started laughing.
Poor guy was trapped and had nothing for years, feels bad
Very nice new intro!
Sounds good my man
I love the old books
great listen
Ian Watson? There's going to be a lot of pooping isn't there.....?
loved it
