The Tranzia Rebellion #1
The Tranzia Rebellion - Episode I
The lords of the Doom Eagles Space Marines Chapter descend upon the world of Tranzia to honour a batch of new recruits who will lead the Chapter into the next generation. But as they make planetfall, the world rises up against them. Can the Doom Eagles and their Adepta Sororitas allies find and stop the minds behind the Tranzia Rebellion?
The first ever Black Library radio play
The Tranzia Rebellion is a new type of Black Library audio, our first ever radio play. What sets this apart from our audiobooks and audio dramas is that there is no narration at all; the whole story is told through a cast of voice actors and complimented by atmospheric sound effects for an incredibly immersive audio experience.
The story itself follows the Doom Eagles Space Marines and their allies in the Adepta Sororitas as they battle an uprising instigated by the insidious ideology of the Tau Empire. Expect plenty of tension, drama, and of course visceral close-up action.

February 18, 2015My first impression is that the serial is half opening credits. The running time for each episode is so brief that I keep running into the opening credits of the next, and with so many performers, it feels like the credits drag on.
I'm somewhat miffed that Black Library hasn't released either a collected edition (even if it was one zip file priced equal to the sum of the episodes, it would still have saved me time) A collected version that trims the repeditive credits sequence down to one at the beginning and one at the end would have been golden.
Did no one at BL realize that there was going to be a time after the serial was done, and that there would be people who would simply buy the whole thing to listen to straight through? That was my first thought when this was announced "I'll buy it all after the last episode comes out".
So far it's decent, but I was a bit surprised that based upon jack-all, the chapter master ordered a ticking clock into play. "If I don't countermand in twelve hours, virus bomb the planet". Given the chatter at the archeological expedition, there was no sign of unrest that warrented exterminatus. Is this his standard response when visiting recruiting worlds? That kinda makes it funny, turning Chapter Master Heron into a cantankerous old man who's decided "I'd rather be bombed to oblivion than sit through these ceremonies for too long. You'd better make it snappy, or it's the life-eater for you!"
