Trel Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 A Salamanders HH book? Isn't their motto "Into the fires of battle, unto the anvil of war"? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/226754-new-hh-novel-april-15th/#findComment-2716153 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brannick Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Isn't this the Blood Angels HH book by James Swallow? {EDIT} - woops wrong thread of the two! And the new book is by Dan Abnett, so I am wrong on all levels - epic fail.

Midgard Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I wonder if it is that limited edition novella collection we've been hearing about. IIRC there was a Salamanders one (by Nick Kyme), and a Word Bearers one as well (by A D-:), with the latter getting a preview not too long ago.

Morningstar317 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I suspect it's part of the build-up to Age of Darkness, which the turning point in the 30k universe. It's now the build up the war on Terra. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/226754-new-hh-novel-april-15th/#findComment-2716369 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perrin Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 April this year or 2012? Id say its defo a Salamanders book, otherwise its a writer completely ripping off the Salamanders catchphrase Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/226754-new-hh-novel-april-15th/#findComment-2716391 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons of Horus Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 well there's a HH novel due for 2012 by Dan Abnett about Calth. I think it's called 'Know No Fear'.

I understand you are an author, but do you mind explaining how artificially creating a supply/demand crunch doesn't foster what the Iron Adam pointed out? You can act as sarcastic as you like but it is a valid concern when releasing only 3000 copies of a what is a very popular series. Is it 3000 first run? Or is is 3000 limited edition, get it or don't ever get it?

Candleshoes Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Reminds me of the recent Space Hulk limited edition run. If you want the novellas, and you are a fan, buy it now. This isn't a Metallica concert, where you have a 8 minute window to get a seat before it is sold out. Sure it is a 3,000 copy run, and if you want one nothing is stopping you, wait too long, and I guess it's apparent that you really, really didn't want it. Anyone remember Dan Abnett's "The Iron Star" limited edition run, for Gaunt's Ghosts? Living in Canada, the opportunity was not available to buy an original copy... how did I cope after the rage and panic? Ebay. Gotta want it bad. The authors both mentioned that they chose events to expand on and walk through, but nothing that happens will be integrally missed by the rest of us. It's for the fans, icing on the cake. How long has The Dark King and the Lightning Tower been out as audio books? They are practically shorter Novellas about their respective characters, and I HIGHLY doubt the majority of Heresy readers have gone out and bought them. Some have, and they love them. Sure it would be better if they were in print, but I'm not tearing through my search engine to illegally download some grainy recordings of two short audio books. Throne of Lies on the other hand, no hesitation whatsoever going and buying it at the store, worth every cent. Sucks that it's limited, but hey, we'll either buy them, get over them, or hear the spoilers in the discussions.

Doghouse Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Yeah it is a shame that they didn't make more copies but I guess it's based on past experience of stuff like the sales of the lighting tower mini novel. I'm just gutted that it's a week till I get paid, just got to hope there is one or two copies left when the day arrives. :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/226754-new-hh-novel-april-15th/#findComment-2725251 Share on other sites More sharing options...
