Aegnor Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I'm a big fan of a lot of the stuff BL put out and frankly think the snobbery associated with judging a book on the basis that it is "genre/tie in fiction" is quite unfair. Yes, there are often novel tie ins for games (actual or video-) that aren't great. But there are also some great books written in genre/tie in series. The HH series consistently sell well enough to get onto the overall best sellers charts - you don't do that solely by selling to indiscriminate fanboys who will buy anything with GW slapped on it - there has to be quality product there as well. Gets back to Shakespeare - praise (or bash) no wine untasted, no maid unbedded, and no book unread.

The Shadow Guard Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 Come now! Every community needs its resident grumpy contrarian, no? Think of me like the vinegar on your collard greens. A little unpleasant on my own, perhaps, but somehow I just make the rest of you sweeter! That craked me up. Must be the quote of the year!! :D ;) SG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252669-upcoming-dark-angels-novel/page/2/#findComment-3070348 Share on other sites More sharing options...
