Summary
An Officio Assassinorum story.
On the Knight World of Dominion, a Vindicare and a Callidus Assassin are tasked with eliminating a seditious leader and safely steering a pro-Imperial candidate to the throne.
Listen to it because....
Kingmaker shows the fascinating relationship between two very different temples of the Assassinorum, as two agents navigate the complex social hierarchy of a Knight World. The stakes are high and the pressure is on, for an Imperial war effort hinges on them executing their duty before disaster strikes.
The story:
The Officio Assassinorum safeguards the future of humanity. Its agents are the bloody-handed, secret saviours of the Imperium, killers charged with achieving the impossible...and Vindicare assassin Absolom Raithe has just been handed the most difficult assignment of his career.
The Knight World of Dominion is on the verge of seceding from the Imperium, its court riven by factionalism and ruled by an increasingly unhinged monarch. With the aid of the shapeshifting Callidus assassin Sycorax, Raithe must remove the king from his throne—and safely steer a pro-Imperial candidate to victory through the brutal succession crisis that will inevitably ensue. His team will need to infiltrate a world steeped in chivalric codes, where every move risks discovery and every threat pilots an adamantine monster...for if the assassins fail, and Dominion falls, the entire sector will be plunged into darkness.

Great listen
Highly recommended.
Unlike any other 40K book I’ve listened too; it’s great, the voice actor does an amazing job

Double-Oh Cool.
This felt like a mashup between all the covert ops movies I loved with added 40k. And Knights.

great joy to listen to it also highlights the internal fears and of the imperium when you realise that even the assassin temples keep there secrets against all odds

One of my favourite 40k books so far
Amazing read, I'd recommend it to everyone.
Robert Rath has done an amazing job, building an interesting world and great characters.
Now I will 100% have to pick up some Assassin/Knoght miniatures...

Very surprised
One of my favourite BL books of recent releases. The world of the knight houses is well fleshed out and feels like Bretonnia in space, whilst the assassins plans are pretty clever. There’s a surprising amount of action. Very worth it.

Top tier
Been working through the audible Black Library for the past year now and this is easily in my top 5 of Black Library books, exciting and some excellent worldbuilding!

Good but the final 2 hours are a bit confusing
I love the book and the narration. However the last 2 hours of the book feel completely different from the rest. Almost as if I’m reading a different story with the characters who just happen to share names. But overall I have no real substantial complaints and love this book.

Good story, insight into imperial knights
Good story, good pace, more of an imperial knight story than assassin's story, though they do get their moments to shine in the book.
