Don't know where you guys are getting that glorious Neil Roberts cover from, all I can find is this beauty:

The Emperor is having a really bad hair day!

Do we have a tentative release date?

November 19th.

If November 19th is a pre-release - so the beginning of December should be general release

Thanks a lot

What is pre release? eBook only?

Shiny hardback with lovely stickers, lol biggrin.png

Just Necrons and C'tan and psycheneuin and lost orks and wandering Old Ones and time travellers then?

Boring.

Amazing ;)

I'm really looking forward to this novel. I hope they go into the Emps history a fair bit but I realize that this is dangerous ground. I remember hearing about this novel years ago and hearing that ADB was writing it and thinking 'who's this guy, why didn't they give it to one of their top tier writers?', but after reading his work I now know that ADB is one of their top tier writers and perhaps the man best suited to writing this novel. I wanted it to be from the Emps perspective but ADB made some good points about that. Now I'm only mad that I have to wait a few more months.

This is the kind of post that adds to A D-B's host of nervous ticks and volcanic stress levels. :D

The (awesome) synopsis for the book:

 

 

While Horus’ rebellion burns across the galaxy, a very different kind of war rages beneath the Imperial Palace. The ‘Ten Thousand’ Custodian Guard, along with the Sisters of Silence and the Mechanicum forces of Fabricator General Kane, fight to control the nexus points of the ancient eldar webway that lie closest to Terra, infested by daemonic entities after Magnus the Red’s intrusion. But with traitor legionaries and corrupted Battle Titans now counted among the forces of Chaos, the noose around the Throneworld is tightening, and none but the Emperor Himself can hope to prevail

Oh, sweet! Where'd you find that, Taliesin? I'd not seen it yet.

Since it will be a December release I hope it will be very early December release, given that it available on Black Library Live on November 19th.

After that day copies go back to the warehouse. Two weeks later the release then? December 3rd.

I hope we get to see The Emperor in this book.

 

Fighting.

 

 

 

Using his reality bending abilities.

 

 

 

 

 

Excited I am.

I'm pumped just to get some more feats on him for those ever-meaningless online versus debates...as if Wolf of Ash and Fire wasn't good enough.

Someone mentioned the Emperor's flaming sword and the Custodian having a cigar. Now I'm just picturing this, with the sword:

More people should watch the film this is from.
