veterannoob Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 HELP! OK, a bit dramatic, all I need is some advice Interviews with authors aside cuz, duh, I have to keep doing BL author interviews or this bus will explode if I do under 50 a year...does it matter, is it recommended, to read Mephiston novella before Hinks' newer book or does the order not matter at all? Thanks! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331392-mephiston-blood-of-sanguinius/page/2/#findComment-4703678 Share on other sites More sharing options...
veterannoob Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 This week is audio next is Guy Haley's tank books & shorts accompanying those then in some order: Hinks Laurie on Scythes (now novel, 2-3 shorts, audio...gonna just wait for this month's audio) Still think I can get Josh Reynolds on in-person several asks out or soon to be out once release/reading can commence. In a producer capacity I'm working on April - May shows and June is a bit ominous as, no secret here, we all know some things will be happening over the summer concerning the wider releases of this company Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331392-mephiston-blood-of-sanguinius/page/2/#findComment-4703709 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! You could go without it, but it goes with few interesting faith questions - what could be asked during the interview This week is audio next is Guy Haley's tank books & shorts accompanying those then in some order: Hinks Laurie on Scythes (now novel, 2-3 shorts, audio...gonna just wait for this month's audio) Still think I can get Josh Reynolds on in-person several asks out or soon to be out once release/reading can commence.

Adorne 'Shadowsword' - ask Haley about 'devil in the bush' ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331392-mephiston-blood-of-sanguinius/page/2/#findComment-4704051 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob P Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Please note the date of the post prior to this one. I've started reading this one this xmas and i'm about 25% in. Not a lot has happened so far. There was a bit of a weird time jump which I thought was a flashback but it was a jump forward. The Mephiston character in this book is a little peculiar and a lot more of a rebel than I would have initially thought. Considering that it's not that old a book, it has the feel of a book where the author is being given free reign with the IP (not that anything is particularly controversial) just odd politcking (odd in that it feels contrived and not quite right for me) within the BA chapter and so on. We've seen a new xenos race in it already (mainly to showcase Mephiston) and some of the trademark actions of the Blood Angels.

BLACK BLΠFLY Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Which is the novel where Mephiston uses time travel ? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331392-mephiston-blood-of-sanguinius/page/2/#findComment-5227015 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob P Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Which is the novel where Mephiston uses time travel ? If it's this book, then not yet. It's getting better as I get further in. i've just passed the half-way mark and there was a decent bit of action. It's not brilliantly my cup of tea but it does feel very early BL when author discretion appeared to be wider (then again, I am a fan of lore that doesn't marry up perfectly - I think it's better for head canon) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331392-mephiston-blood-of-sanguinius/page/2/#findComment-5227529 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indefragable Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Side note, but my favorite thing about time travel in works of fiction is that characters always seem to use it so myopically deux-ex-machina-ey for the plot at hand..... like the equivalent of "keys" in this scene: https://youtu.be/QhEWKSoAQdg Only time time travel (IMHO) ever really made sense was The Terminator.

BLACK BLΠFLY Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 I think it is either Lord of Death or Blood of Sanguinius... the former is OOP and quite dear to buy a hard copy.

TheRealMcCagh Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 There are instances of him freezing time, but I don't think he ever travels back in time. At least not in the two newer novels by Hinks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/331392-mephiston-blood-of-sanguinius/page/2/#findComment-5227586 Share on other sites More sharing options...
