Taliesin Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Looks great in terms of cover and synopsis. I'm reluctant to buy any limited editions for this series, not because the stories aren't good but because it really is a very hefty oprice to pay for such short novels. So far I only got McNeill's Magnus in LE form, but I might shell out for this one as well. Other than that I want to see the Sanguinius Primarchs novel. Amazon has this one clocking in at 224 pages which, while still short, makes it just about the longest of the Primarchs "short novel" series so far.

Kelborn Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Wasn't Perturabo the longest with 240 pages? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340198-primarch-book-8-jaghatai-khan-warhawk-of-chogoris/page/2/#findComment-4905691 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taliesin Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 It'll be close, the Perturabo hardcover is 221 pages. Then again , Lorgar is listed at 256 pages so that is actually the biggest one, and furthermore I see Fulgrim and Ferrus Manus are also listed at 224 pages so the lisitings may not be entirely accurate.

Roomsky Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Still a pretty long wait...but I am glad the Khan is not last, I think I would be genuinely shocked if the final spot wasn't Horus or Sanguinius.

Phoebus Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I guess it was too much to ask to go in numerical order. Just think, for II and XI, Black Library could've commissioned (reasonably priced) gag Limited Editions, wherein every page is full of Inquisitorial seals, labelling, and redaction marks! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340198-primarch-book-8-jaghatai-khan-warhawk-of-chogoris/page/2/#findComment-4905920 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tymell Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 This also does confirm that there's no limit within the Primarch series of 1 book per author. Not that it was ever indicated that there was such a thing, but this is the first confirmation (that I'm aware of) of an author doing a second.

b1soul Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Oh yes...silly me. Somehow I thought Wraight might also be given a crack at Mortarion. Anyway, I'd love a conversation between Khan and Russ about Stormseers and Rune Priests Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340198-primarch-book-8-jaghatai-khan-warhawk-of-chogoris/page/2/#findComment-4906209 Share on other sites More sharing options...
m_r_parker Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I have to admit, the story overview looks intriguing. I’m just glad we haven’t got another ‘Primarch has unresolved daddy issues’ plotline that we’ve seen multiple times now. The founding of the Librarius is a great setting to see how some of the Primarchs react around Psykers, and personally I would love to see whether there’s any nod to the Emperor and whether he intervened prior to Nikea regarding its inception. Yeah, I’m looking forward to reading it.

b1soul Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Perhaps the Jaghatai novella will address this exchange with Magnus... Magnus smiled sadly. ‘There are always rumours. Russ can shout his ignorance as much as he likes. I think the rest of the Imperium is learning to ignore him.’ ‘It is not just Russ.’ ‘Worry less,’ said Magnus. ‘There will always be suspicion of the gifted. We have to manage it, to explain it. Trust in enlightenment.’ ‘You forget, brother, I am not gifted.’ ‘Are you not?’ asked Magnus, smiling shrewdly. ‘If you say so.’ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340198-primarch-book-8-jaghatai-khan-warhawk-of-chogoris/page/2/#findComment-4906366 Share on other sites More sharing options...

drooling blood Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Sounds interesting. A tale I've always wanted to hear. Buuuut. This is BL were talking about even if it Wraight. The cover sucks. Should've been the war hawk in full flight. Going fast, faint smile on his lips. Magnus will hint at the BAs secrets. Sangy will turn up, looking pretty, while eating some grapes and saying yeap, good idea once or twice. Khan will go off and think about things. Morti turns up at the end. Allo, allo, allo, wots goin on ere then. Sniff upper lip.

b1soul Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Since each primarch was a being suffused with the Warp and had some special psyker powers (e.g. Curze melds with Shadows and has precog, Corax has Jedi-like mindtricks to render himself effectively invisible, Sanguinius has precog, Perturabo had his special sight etc.), I don't think the Khan will be left out Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340198-primarch-book-8-jaghatai-khan-warhawk-of-chogoris/page/2/#findComment-4909165 Share on other sites More sharing options...
drooling blood Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Well The Khan was going to kick in Malcadors dungeon door, when he was trying to save Arvida. Malc said better let him in or were all dead. Whenever Jag turns up, its always written like Russ bringing the winter with him.

SpAcEGhOsT095 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 This looks interesting. A question, sort of on topic. Looking at the armor of Sanguinius and the Khan, is it just plain armor or powered?

bluntblade Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I can't think why it wouldn't be powered. Angron's was, after all.
