Taliesin Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Yeah the price is actually very reasonable. EUR 22.00 for a 500 page plus hardcover. A deliberate move, no doubt, as the 500 page plus novels such as Fear to tread and Thousand Sons costs EUR 30.00 or more.

HeritorA Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Nothing new - and to pay 30 bucks for a dust converter? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/314909-book-xxxiii/page/7/#findComment-4284097 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamsterExAstris Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Nothing new - and to pay 30 bucks for a dust converter? You should be used to it after Legacies of Betrayal.

Tymell Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Just finished Pharos, thoroughly enjoyed it. It's really noticable how quickly I chewed through it compared to the trudging progrss I made with Honoured and Unburdened. The characters were well-rounded and portrayed (and the author not afraid to kill them off when appropraite), the pacing was on point, and we got a good look at some aspects of Imperium Secundus. It doesn't reinvent any legions and their cultures, but it never tries to. It just cements my opinion that Guy Haley's strength here is his ability to turn his hand to a range of legions and characters and just get them, without feeling like he's just imitating others. Definitely recommend it and I'm looking forward to more from Mr. Haley. I hope he can get in another HH novel before the end (ideally involving Maloghurst :D ) so it basically a collection of anthologies which collected previously released novellas? WLK yes No. Unless I'm completely misunderstanding what you're talking about. It collects The Imperial Truth, Sedition's Gate, Blades of the Traitors and Death & Defiance. None of them contain novellas, and the stories in them weren't released prior to those four (save for Lord of the Red Sands, I believe). It's a collection of four novella-sized anthologies.

veterannoob Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 So many quotes upon quotes but I think we all agreed...book 33 is all from previously published novellas, even though two of those have yet to be widely distrusted in print and/or audio books via weekly BL audio subscriptions.
