Well, well, well, if it isn't your old pal Oldex, back after a crazy workload and a fresh shot of inspiration after guesting on Box Naught's YouTube. It's a sensationally good one, one of my faves in fact, and all 40K fans should check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/@boxnaught7428
Like my readings of GW literature? Why not do me a favour and post on the Black Library Facebook page and tell them you want me to narrate one of their audiobooks? That would make my week to be honest.
If you've enjoyed listening to Oldex, I'd really appreciate it if you would leave a review on iTunes, Spotify, or wherever you found this to help spread the word:

Since yesterday's release was just an 'official' reading of the April Fool's Day episode, the content, if not the presentation, of which you've already heard, I wanted to give you something new (in Oldex terms anyway) as well. And here it is! Huge thank you to Alistair for the contribution of Space Marines, Tyranids and Chaos Space Marines codices to the project. I look forward to getting to them! If you want to donate olde codexes to the project, get in touch via the means below.
