JH79 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I am glad to finally read both parts of the interview. The second part still hasn't been posted yet, so where did you read it? Voila :-) That's part 2 of the December 2016 interview. Argh, apologies & good spot!

Bulwyf Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 I am glad to finally read both parts of the interview. The second part still hasn't been posted yet, so where did you read it? I read the second part of what I now see was the first interview back in Dec 16. More than a little confusing with how it is displayed. I did not mean to confuse anyone.

I read the second part of what I now see was the first interview back in Dec 16. More than a little confusing with how it is displayed. I did not mean to confuse anyone. Exactly, I was confused too. They should have pointed new interview separately and add something like a timestamp for title of the old one.

Well, I've got a quick interview with an author of some old Inferno! stories ready to post soon - part of my Forgotten Texts series of articles. Everything else is still in the pipeline, but I'm hopeful to get something sorted in the not too distant future Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330897-interview-with-laurie-goulding-about-bl-gw/page/5/#findComment-4681876 Share on other sites More sharing options...
klisof Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Thanks for posting that, another great read. And I can't believe I missed the joke planet names in the Ciaphas Cain novels!

DarkChaplain Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 By the way, ‘the Wolf Cull’ is merely a term that Tony Cottrell put on a Forge World presentation. Since then it’s become irrefutably inscribed on everyone’s minds – ‘That’s what it’s going to be called! That’s the name of the Black Library book!’ So I just smile politely and say nothing… This part was oddly amusing to me. On here over the past months the name has been used so adamantly, even with the conviction that "Wolf Cull" might be book 43 or 46 instead of the obvious and confirmed anthology-reprints. At this point the only thing that's confirmed about the "Wolf Cull" is that it'll happen, but that's about it.

Taliesin Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 But do we ACTUALLY know what the outcome is? Because in Corax, Ezekyle Abaddon suddenly appears at Yarant and goes full-on trying to wipe out the wounded Space Wolves and Leman Russ. I hope that story would be something like Rogue One to A New Hope – the ending of this supposed ‘Wolf Cull’ could have that level of amazing, exciting, horrifying drama. All of the little concerns and arguments that fans are having about whether or not Leman Russ got a proper spin of the wheel at that point would suddenly be obliterated by the full telling of it! However, obviously he doesn’t kill Horus, and obviously his attempt fails, we know that from the background. The question of HOW he’s foiled and what exactly he MIGHT achieve, because we haven’t seen it from Horus’ point of view yet – that’s the thing that’s really exciting, and that’s what I’ve always loved about the Horus Heresy as a series. It’s going to be amazing, however it shakes out. I’m sure of that.” That's nice and all, but when is that actually going to happen? And in what form, novel or novella. I wish they'd just release some information like other SFF publishers do ( you know, put up a listing with a synopsis, page count details etc).

DarkChaplain Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Well, they're doing that now at least. You can find the next few months on BL, and beyond even on Amazon sometimes. There was a phase where they didn't talk about things like those anymore at all, but they're getting better again. Though for some reason they still haven't returned ISBNs and page counts to product pages. Always a pain in the backside when trying to organize their releases on goodreads. Most other SFF publishers only list maybe 6 months in advance, outside of things like ongoing series they're promoting long before the fact, and ARCs they're sending out way ahead of time so information leaking is unavoidable.

At this point the only thing that's confirmed about the "Wolf Cull" is that it'll happen, but that's about it. I stand corrected. You was right in that particular case. Partly I was hoping BL after 2016 fixed mass old stuff reprints into the numbered series by that time. So Shattered Legions made me again. At least now, in my humble opinion - I think it would be sufficient to make it a novella (like Purge) instead of a full fledged novel. Well, they're doing that now at least.

We still can find new releases 9 months ahead on Amazon. At the same time BL site contain info only 4 months ahead. That's not even 6 months in advance Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330897-interview-with-laurie-goulding-about-bl-gw/page/5/#findComment-4683601 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taliesin Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Greetings DC, Publishers like Tor books, DAW, Del Rey, Orbit, Harper Voyager, they announce well in advance what they will be publishing in 2017, in hardcover and paperback. I agree that BL is getting better by showing some "coming soon" releases on their website, and we can gather some stuff from BL on Amazon. It's still not on the same level as SFF publishers, who show their information significantly more in advance on Amazon and their own website, and it is far more complete as well. For instance, all TOR books releases are up until December 26. For BL, we don't know what is coming up as early as July. And BL's Amazon listing is incomplete, it doesn't always show the hardcover releases which would indicate when we first see the release of a book. But more than that there is still a lot of coyness about what is coming in the HH series for instance. I would prefer if they simply told us what is coming out in 2017, what month, what book. They simply don't do that, and that is definitely out of step with other sff publishers.

BL hasn't shown titles after June - cause they simply does not know then they would be ready and published after edit. Plainly obvious.

Laurie's enthusiasm for the events that are going to be covered here was infectious, and the whole 'Wolf Cull' thing is classic internet + hobby fans really.

They called Fehervari novel same as Codex an a lot of people simply did not bought it - cause they thought it was codex. So it would be truly in 'tradition' of BL to name the novel 'Wolf Cull' As for the editing/publishing/sales time I was shocked with 'Warmaster' - finished in december 2016 - released in november 2017.

klisof Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 If people didn't buy the Peter Fehervari genestealer cults novel because if the name they missed out there - I thought that was a great read, I'm just hoping it gets a follow up to close out some of the open plot threads. My only real criticism of the book is that it could have done with a longer page count.
