Jim Shady Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 So i'm bored at work and I decide to check out BL for some new books and to see whats out and I come across this Anyone know if this is another book of short stories? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Shady Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 Interesting book title. Shame there's naff all else info. Exactly brother! But looking at the price it would seem it's another Tales of Heresy/Age of Darkness filler. Hopefully it'll shed more light on the Primarchs before the Big E found them. Hopefully ADB or someone can give a sniff of info in regards to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 More fluff is always good. especially in regards to the primarchs. If it is a short story anthology then, hopefully, there'll be at least nine stories. That way there can be a second book but not a drawn out series within a seires.

Jim Shady Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 From the Bolthole; 'Horus Heresy four novellas compilation titled "The Primarchs" featuring tales by Nick Kyme (Ferrus Manus), Rob Sanders (Alpharius/Omegon), Gav Thorpe (The Lion), Graham McNeill (Fulgrim)' I know we've got the Novella's coming out but I wonder if BL have taken into account the feedback they got from people about doing limited editions and not normal books.

Olis Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I do hope there will be inches given to those primarchs left out in the cold so far - Khan I'm looking at you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Shady Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 So it seems it's going to be an anthology of the 4 Novella's being released so if you don't want to fork out £30 or what not (depending in what country your from), this seems abit of a steal.

Verrix Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 So it seems it's going to be an anthology of the 4 Novella's being released so if you don't want to fork out £30 or what not (depending in what country your from), this seems abit of a steal. I'm thinking these are different than the limited edition novellas, such as Promethean Sun and Aurelian. Mostly because the characters are all different. So, be prepared to drop $50 on those limited edition bad-boys still :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torvak Kyre Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I went to black library live in march and the authors said that each of the for of them would be doing a primarch. I don't think they said anything about it being limited addition. Looks interesting though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumah Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I'm quite dissapointed they didn't give Alpharius/Omegon to Dan Abnett. Here's hoping Mr. Sanders does his homework and stays true to the characterizations in Legion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Ciaphas Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Hail It looks interesting. It is a pity though, that it is Gav Thorpe who will once again create a hack-slash job with the Lion, and try to implement "clever" (insert irony), schemes of divided loyalties. Aside from that obvious flaw in the author list, I am quite excited about this book. Regards, Master Ciaphas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping Mr. Sanders does his homework and stays true to the characterizations in Legion. He did a good job with Iron Warriors in Iron Within (Age of Darkness anthology). I think he'll manage to write Alpharius/Omegon perfectly, or almost perfectly.... well, good at least. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no doubt his Alpharius/Omegon story will be just as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valtonis Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Ferrus Manus, Alpharius/Omegon, The Lion, Fulgrim oh god, really? can't we have stories on the other Primarchs already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Caerolion Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 What's been done on Ferrus Manus? He's been given barely any attention, other than his short appearances in Fulgrim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that was a general statement for the other three, and Ferrus was just collateral damage :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should wait his turn after Jaghatai. That guy is basically a non entity compared to Ferrus. Besides he appeared plentily in the Promethean Sun too.

Dominicus Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Would like to see some Jaghatai Khan/ little Sanguinius action going on. But, this sounds good. Better start saving up my pennies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
