Entei Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 http://www.blacklibrary.com/Images/BL/product-pages/08-10-sonsofwrath-ppage.jpg http://www.blacklibrary.com/exclusive-products/sons-of-wrath-first-edition.html Andy Smillie has written a new story about the origins of the Flesh Tearers! According to some posts on Heresy-Online, it's just novella-length, but we don't know if that is true yet. Also included is Born of Rage, a Flesh Tearers/Blood Angels Heresy story. Even though it's in "luxurious hardback in a magnetic display case" I find 65€ a bit much, especially if it's a novella... But I'll probably buy it anyway, since I really enjoyed Smillie's previous work. Just thought I'd make a thread since I didn't see one yet. Rage on brothers!

Entei Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 A Heresy BA story by Smillie? Consider me intrigued. I wonder if it will feature a certain 5th Company... :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297836-new-flesh-tearers-book/#findComment-3830460 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orblivion Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 A Heresy BA story by Smillie? Consider me intrigued. I really liked his FT short stories, but I was less than thrilled with Flesh of Cretacia. I'll still give this a try, but not until the price goes down.

marine7312000 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Compare any of Andy's work with what Swallow has done and you see why I'm intrigued.

Corvus_Danseur Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I'm also sorely tempted... but a novella for that price is too steep considering the speed at which I read (I just read The First Heretic in about 8 hours, excellent book by the way). Here's hoping its actually full length, otherwise as said before I will wait for the paperback!

sockwithaticket Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I'm pretty ignorant of Black Library and it's releases (there's so much it's just overwhelming), but how many pages would you be getting for £45. What would the ordinary paperback version usually retail for?I might actually be interested in picking this up if it ever drops to the price of a regular book.

marine7312000 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I feel your pain Corvus. On a first read, a book takes about 8 hours. On subsequent reads, significantly less.

Terrahawk Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I'm a big fan of Smillie's Tearers, so if it is a full-length novel I'm prolly going to get it. Either way, nice to see some new Sons of Sanguinius stuff. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297836-new-flesh-tearers-book/#findComment-3830883 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaymz Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I thought flesh of cretacia was head and shoulders above the James Swallows BA books, just my opinion. Will grab this one as an ebook when the price drops.
