Black Library Live- Nov 19th


Taliesin

Recommended Posts

So, the schedule has been released.

 

That looks excellent.

My idea was that those who've gone can come here and post news from the event.

 

There is already a seminar scheduled at 10 with Goulding and Kyme, talking about next year's releases and a seminar at 3 about the future of the Horus Heresy.

 

My hope is that we will be told:

 

1) What will be out and roughly when  ( Q1/Q2 etc)

 

2) What each of the HH authors are doing as their next book and when we might expect that.

 

3) How many books they think the series will end up being and when they think it will be concluded.

 

4) A release date for The Crimson King in particular.

I winced when I saw I was opposite the Coming Soon and Horus Heresy panels. Like, the two main ones. I swear someone in events management is trying to get revenge on me at these things for all the deadlines I miss.

 

Laurie actually said he did it on purpose over on; "T.F.E"

 

I'm still not entirely sure if he was being serious or not.

If it's any consolation, I'll probably be missing those two seminars in order to get my back catalogue signed - so there'll be two of us who won't be seeing those. I'm sure those seminars are going to be emptier than they were expecting because of it, probably because they know how big the line is going to be and this makes it easier to manage (i.e. more difficult for people to chose signing or seminar, and leading to fewer people queuing for book signings)

 

I've started putting together my book signing pile from the 'Shelf of Aaron'

A D-B would be glad to sign that pile and another hundred like that ;)

It won't be that tough. You'll only need to answer 1 billion questions about the Emperor and what his favourite cereal is. For an hour.

I think Laurie will try to make a decent structure for them :)

The only problem - each timetable have 2 events I want to visit, so the question of choice is before me again sad.png I sooooo want to talk with Aaron, but at the same time I missed great chap McNeil! Decisions, decisions - Lord of Change in the human from of Laurie Goulding should be proud biggrin.png

Bumping this, the event is tomorrow, hopefully my questions will be answered :)

 

Is anyone attending?

Literally in a queue waiting for the doors to open in 15 minutes.

 

DISCLAIMER: I'm here for A-D-B signings (and a seemingly elusive Hi-5), and Master of Mankind. I may not be in attendance of the various seminars as the queue for A-D-B may be huge. I'll try to keep people up to date if I hear tidbits though.

 

Nice. What's the page count on the book? 

 

Is the dramatis personae those two pages or are there follow up pages?

I had to dump the book in the boot of my car - too much to carry around all day. That's the full list of characters, and it's quite the big book. Wouldn't be surprised if its close to 500 pages,but I'll check in an hour.

Currently listening to The Thirteenth Wolf.

Condensed from Twitter with speculations:

 

Looks like Vulkan really is going to Terra in Old Earth. Narek is in it too, apparently.

 

Ruinstorm seems to be the collapse of Imperium Secundus and the departure for Terra.

 

Echoes of Revelation will likely be including advent audios - we're gonna get those, right? Right? Dan Abnett, Chris Wraight and Gav Thorpe. Thorpe might be the Valerius or Kurthuri story.

Chris Wraight's story apparently is "The Soul, Severed". Guess we're in for more Eidolon.

 

Lorgar's Primarch novel seems to be tackling the purge of Colchis, before the Emperor arrived to pick him up. Perturabo deals with Olympia, before and after.

 

 

 

44 The Crimson King
45 Ruinstorm by Annabelle
47 Old Earth by Kyme

John French doing audio about Horus called Dark Compliance

 

Hmm so what's 43 then? And 46?

 

Ruinstorm by Annandale, sounds interesting, any info on that?

 

 

I'd assume that one of them will be Tallarn.

 

Disappointed that The Crimson King is still that far off, though. With Garro being 42, I was hoping it'd at least be the next in line.

Is there any indication the HH series will end with 50? Both Ruinstorm and Old Earth have an ending type feel to them (assuming Ruinstorm is the legions from IS leaving for Terra and getting held up until the final siege). Kyme says that Old Earth is Vulkan fulfilling his destiny.
