Who Narrates The Best Warhammer Audiobook Series?

If you’re looking for a narrator who embodies the sheer brutality and grandeur of Warhammer, Stephen Perring is a name you need to know. His work on 'The Infinite and the Divine' is masterful. Perring captures the dry, ancient wit of Trazyn the Infinite and the stubborn pride of Orikan the Diviner perfectly. The way he delivers their millennia-old rivalry is both hilarious and poignant. Perring’s voice has this timeless quality that makes the Necrons feel alien yet relatable.

Another gem is Emma Gregory, who narrated 'The Oubliette'. Her performance as the doomed Lady Malys is hauntingly beautiful. Gregory’s ability to convey the slow descent into madness and the eerie elegance of the Dark Eldar is unmatched. She makes every word drip with menace and allure.

For a more action-packed experience, Andrew Wincott’s narration of 'Rynn’s World' is fantastic. He nails the desperation and heroism of the Crimson Fists, making the siege feel visceral and real. Wincott’s pacing keeps you on the edge of your seat, and his battle cries are downright inspiring. Each of these narrators brings something special to Warhammer, but Perring’s work on 'The Infinite and the Divine' is my top pick for its sheer creativity and charm.

When it comes to Warhammer audiobooks, there’s a handful of narrators who’ve left a lasting impression, but Jonathan Keeble is in a league of his own. His work on the 'Gaunt’s Ghosts' series is legendary. Keeble doesn’t just read the story; he performs it. The way he captures the camaraderie and despair of the Tanith First and Only is breathtaking. Each character has a distinct voice, from the gruff Colonel-Commissar Ibram Gaunt to the sly Bragg. Keeble’s ability to convey the chaos of battle and the quiet moments of reflection makes the series unforgettable.

Another standout is Gareth Armstrong, who narrated 'The Horus Heresy' series. His voice has this gravitas that fits the epic scale of the Heresy perfectly. The way he delivers the tragic fall of Horus and the loyalty of characters like Loken is haunting. Armstrong’s narration adds layers to the already rich lore, making it feel like you’re listening to a historical account rather than fiction.

For something darker, David Timson’s work on the 'Night Lords' trilogy is phenomenal. He captures the sinister, almost poetic cruelty of the Night Lords with a chilling precision. Timson’s narration is so immersive that you’ll find yourself sympathizing with characters who are, by all accounts, monsters. Each of these narrators brings something unique to the table, but Keeble remains my personal favorite for his sheer range and emotional depth.

I’ve listened to a ton of Warhammer audiobooks, and the one narrator who stands head and shoulders above the rest is Toby Longworth. His voice is like butter—smooth, deep, and perfectly suited for the grimdark universe of Warhammer 40K. He brings characters like Gregor Eisenhorn to life with such intensity that you forget you’re listening to a single person. The way he shifts between the cold, logical tone of an Inquisitor and the raspy growl of a Chaos cultist is nothing short of magical. Longworth’s pacing is impeccable, and he nails the emotional weight of every scene. If you’re diving into Warhammer audiobooks, start with 'Eisenhorn: Xenos'—you won’t regret it. His narration elevates the already stellar writing of Dan Abnett, making it a must-experience for any fan.
