The only way that Cain can avoid this new threat is to understand it and that means meeting it head on. Overseeing the pacification of a feral river world seems like the ideal posting for Cain then but something deadly is stirring on one of the many islands and is about to make a relatively simple posting a lot more complicated for the erstwhile Commissar. What Cain isn’t so well known for though is the fact that he’s the biggest coward in the Commissariat and will do anything to stay out of the firing line. ‘Dead in the Water’ proved to be more of the same but I still had the same old issues with the story, as well as a brand new one.Ĭommissar Ciaphas Cain is a renowned hero of the Imperium an officer who has faced down the worst that the xenos races and creatures from the warp have thrown at him. I really should look at reviewing more audio books for the blog as the Black Library audio books have been a great way to take the edge off a commute that’s never pleasant. I really enjoy the setting itself though so always seem to find myself coming back for more this time for Ciaphas Cain’s debut in audio book format. A couple of the footnotes make me laugh here and there but, on the whole, I end up feeling like I’m the only guy in the room who doesn’t get the joke (and I’ve been to a few parties like that in real life). I don’t know if it’s because I don’t get the humour or if it’s simply because I haven’t got onto the good stuff yet the bottom line is that I just don’t get why people love roguish Commissar Ciaphas Cain so much.
