Books gave me unrealistic expectations of what the rest of the library was like. Nothing can match these books though. Have read 70 or 80 more since reading these first last year and these just hit different. From the numeral slaves and the get the life below decks and their Stockholm Syndrome,and the thrill when you read the word PreySight and know that it's about to get real.

Hey Sandman, great to see you! You're one of my favorite narration KZreadrs! You,Amber, and Ole Baldie have been fantastic company on some of my longer drives!
Xarl killed a named ultramarine? Does that put him in the top 5 power ranking for warhammer? Right above Nurgle?

38:25 i love how often youll have the Night Lords in a novel or something and they'll "Utter a single a word", that word ALWAYS being "Preysight" and it ALWAYS being cool af.

So glad you paid homage to my boy Talos. I honestly hated the Night Lords and found them generally cringe AF until I read this trilogy. Now I love them but only the "Talos" warband lol hopefully we'll get continuation of their arc with his "heir"

i doubt it can fit into 40k canon, a newblood night lord uniting the 8th, it should be impossible, the old high ranking officers could not do it. Only Kurze and Sevatar could ever make it happen imo.
AVE DOMINUS NOX!!! This will be my new favorite and most listened video from your channel. I wish Black Library release a sequel books of Night Lord Trilogy cause I really want to know what happened to Talos’ successor

Have you heard/read Throne of Lies? I came across it after downloading the Trilogy (Soul Hunter, Blood Reaver, and Void Stalker).
Something about that introduction of abbadon was just so damn heavy, so unbelievably epic...flat out flith!
Oh joy ! Another 4 freakin hours of glorious Amber King lore content! Best KZread 40k lore videos hands down 💫🥳
When I finish work I generally have the intention of either watching a movie, paint or play PS5. But when I see Warhammer content as premium as this I make my camomile tea and I kick back and listen to this masterpiece, thanks mate!

I’m so happy I got to see the premiere ❤ excellent work as usual Brother
I love how you can do serious lore and live comedy lore😊
This is one of your best videos. Don't know how many times I've listened to it now, lol.
The best trilogy ever produced by black library, and you guys did it justice. Thank you!
This is brilliant, great work as per usual. I quit 40k in 4th edition and never expected I would return. Then I read the ADB trilogy and it re-ignited the fire. Characters like Sev and Talos are so interesting to me, your channel does them justice.
It's amazing that a traitor can be favored and loved by so many in this setting. I have completed the omnibus at least 5 times now and I tear up every time, but listening to you my friend, really stirs up the emotions. Talos Valcoran, the Prophet from Nostramo, traitor, whose life and subsequent death will forever be remembered, by those who know his tale. Thank you, brother.
An emotional ride that questions sanity and morality. Bravo sir. Few parts gave me goosebumps and a few made me almost shed a tear. Rip Talos
Thank you for this amazing video Amber King! Talos has become one of my favorite 40k characters ever. Though I'm a loyalist at heart, the Prophet's story in the Night Lords trilogy is so darn compelling! The Night Lords became one of the most fascinating traitor legions in 30k especially Sevatar, and their 40k story with First Claw was so compelling. So many layers indeed! And man, Uzas' fate is so heart wrenching... Talos is still a traitor and a monster, and I feel his final fate goes to show that even the traitors don't have "good endings" in this grim dark universe. In some ways, his story is definitely tragic. ADB was a genius making this trilogy and I agree completely with you about how Talos is built up maybe like an anti-hero, but ther third entry reminds us he is very much a villain. He is a monster putting the teachings of Curze to practice. And fate simply caught up to him after his many sins. Great summary of the trilogy and thanks you once again @TalesOfTerraVA for voicing the character so well!
By far the best lore channel, great job as usual.
Fantastic trillogy. Looking forward to this!
Masterpiece!!!! Thankyou for this, it really has opened up the nightlords perception
amazing work once again!
great production! I was always astounded when I first listened to the audio book and Talos has the balls to chastise Abaddon for using a too formal tone to reference Konrad Kurze lol such a great back and forth between the two
Hey, thank you for making these videoes. Going through a rough time in my life and everything on the Amber King channel has just been a pleasure to listen through and really inspired me to pick up reading books and audiobooks more often ✌🏼
This was an awesome story!! One of the best I've listened to so far. I never thought I would like the Nightlords but I have a newfound respect for them. Talos has a awesome character ark!! Ave dominus nox!
man this was simply amazing, absolutely killed this video
so insane quality, sick that you have other incredible voice actors with you plus the writing is also amazing, I'm excited for Guilliman next and hopefully Sanguinius in the future :)
Talos impaling the assassin on his sword, and whispering “ave dominus nox” before igniting the chain sword is one of the coldest and badass moments in warhammer!
35:11 What's the background music here?
Such amazing writing….and reading. My favourite legion done Justice, finally. Well done good sir.
Hello King, as always, AWESONE work. And with this, you convinced me to be a Night Lords fan Pd: you should work with BurialGoods, the guy has a fantastic and brutal voice to any charcter you want to give it life.
Nice!!! I have just finished the Night Lords Trilogy and love every part of it!!!!!! Talos is the best and most badass Chaos Space Marine in the whole lore!!!!!
Hi dose anyone know the sound from 34:25? I've gone through Amber kings sound track lists multiple times but I can't find it?
OMFG a 4 hour video, love your work and videos.
You absolutely nailed this - outstanding work! Thank you so much for doing justice to 3 of the greatest books ever written.
Holy hell almost 4 hours! Perfect for my 4 hour drive today!
I have listened to the night lords trilogy 3 times now. This was freaking awesome. Thank you so much. Ave Dominus Nox.
My brother, every single video is masterpiece! Long live The Amber King!
Hail to the lord of night , Ave Dominus Nox. Claws on the walls..
This!!! By all the gods THIS!!!! I never, ever rooted so hard for a Nightlord since the betrayal at Istivan!!!!! This was storytelling at its zenith! The Soul Hunter may have fallen but he will NEVER be forgotten!!!
The Uzas redemption arc was amazing to read. Death is nothing compared to vindication
I cant believe the quality of these, they are so good! I had a go of making an hour long video and it took forever and still no where near this quality! 👏 👏 👏
Love that this came out while I’ve been reading the trilogy
You truly are the king of lore. Another home run.😊
Having loved the audiobook rendition so much it was hard to switch these performances but you guys did great after l settled into the new voices
The most human moment I've ever heard coming from the Night Lords of all legions...how ironic.
YYYEEESSS!!! God i needed this so badly today lol ALL HAIL THE KING!
I just finished the books about a month ago. I’ve already read Da Big Dakka and half way through the Eisenhorn omnibus. But the Night Lords omnibus will go down as one of my favorites I’m sure anyone who reads it will agree. The 8th has touched my heart in this dark universe. Lol
What a pleasure of a listen... tysm ❤
That was brilliant I loved every second of it fantastically delivered
Wondered what the next project would be.. Not even the biggest Nightlords fan, but 5 mins in and I'm seriously vibing this!.. Top work AK, thanks yet again for all your efforts.. 😎🙌👊👊
This is amazing!! Thank you, Hal
After watching this, Talos & his crew are some of, if not the only, of the 8th I’ve enjoyed. Excellent work :)
HELLLLLLL YESSSSSS….. you are such a rare talent. I love your work
Hal you bloody legend you've done it again. Mad good stuff as always
It's time he's BACKKKKKKKKKKK ! HAIL TO THE KING
This is my favourite so far!
You just casually drop a video on my favourite character
Literal chills! Excellent video!
No one has evsr made such content on talos probably no one will without copying content from from this video. I cant say i have a fav video from amber kimg..they are all good
this has to be the best 40k lore video out there. respect
Didn't know that to expect, fantastic video. Thank you!
The only primarch to hate his own legion Angron:and I took that personally
Of all the traitor legions the night lords are my favourite. Their story and Curze’s story is so tragic yet poetic.
Again you guys outdone yourself.
I am so freaking hyped! I managed to find the Night Lords Triology audiobook with the bonus Throne of Lies! Also got A Lesson in Darkness, a story featuring the friggin Night Haunter!
Another top quality video. You must be the best 40k storyteller out there at the minute, look forward to more of your expertly crafted videos

this channel is a gift
For those who havent read the books and short stories: Variel the Flayer survives and extracts Talos' geneseed. He finds Septimus and Octavia, and ends up taking their child, Decimus (the tenth). I'm not sure whether they die or not. He then implants Talos' geneseed into the child and seeks out the Atramentar to begin the rebuilding of the 8th Legion around the new Prophet whose powers now come at no detriment. The final short story is a young Decimus, with Variel and the Atramentar by his side, assembling a meeting of all the various Knight Lord warbands to prove he has inherited Konrad Curzes ability to predict the future. He accurately predicts who will join and who will die. This is right before the fall of Cadia. The reason the Aeldarii wanted Talos dead is because the newly assembled Knight Lords led by the new Prophet Decimus destroy an Aeldari Craft World.
A powerful story performed powerfully.
THE AMBER KING !!!!!!!!!
I've been waiting for THIS BAD BOY!
Nostramo was basically space Detroit
Hands down this is brilliant
What an honorable and sane man.
