theSpirea Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 I hate omnibus editions but I'm tempted to get it, split it per novel and have it rebinded as individual hardbacks.

That sounds like a very fine idea!

DarkChaplain Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 Too bad it doesn't change the font size or paper quality, though. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353049-peter-fehervari%E2%80%99s-dark-coil/page/13/#findComment-6074287 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scorpion Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 I just read "Blindsight", the newest Fehervari Kino in White Dwarf 505 and I gotta say: it's still Peak. It is strange. It is unclear. It is thoughtful. Sometimes it makes perfect sense. Sometimes it makes no sense. It is closely tied to my favorite Dark Coil story "The Thirteenth Psalm" as well as my second favourite "Fire and Ice". All in all, a work truly blessed by the mark of Chaos.

Malkydel Posted December 2 Share Posted December 2 Nightshift Nineteen was a wonderfully constructed little story. Definitely presaging something else coming down the pipeline is the feeling it gives me. Wonderfully bleak, beautifully macabre. Just perfectly constructed from mundanity and horror. byrd9999, theSpirea and DarkChaplain 2 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353049-peter-fehervari%E2%80%99s-dark-coil/page/13/#findComment-6078814 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Ciaphas Posted December 3 Share Posted December 3 Really looking forward to reading this. I am, alas, still behind on The Thirteenth Psalm, Aria Arcana, Sins of my Brothers and now this piece as well! Peter Fehervari is one of, if not THE best, writer Black Library have in their stables... byrd9999, System Sound, Preliminary Bombardment and 1 other 1 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353049-peter-fehervari%E2%80%99s-dark-coil/page/13/#findComment-6078905 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally got my White Dwarf issue for October and read Blindsight. And yeah, I'll echo the above. Maybe I'm just seeing things, but it kinda pararels our journeys through these mysteries? But also this oddly works as a starting point for a first time venture into the Coil. I guess that's why it was included in the magazine and with the omnibuses coming too. Now onto "Nightshift Nineteen".

Finished this last night. And yeah it's great! Recently I saw a comment somewhere saying that David Lynch's Twin Peaks at certain points portrays how a nightmare looks like. I think it's the same with Fehervari. His prose at least from more recent works, has that nightmare like feel to then. And this story is very much a nightmare in written form. Fun fact I guess, if I'm not mistaken that is, this is the 19th story that he wrote for BL. I guess that's why the number is quite prevelant through out the short. byrd9999 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353049-peter-fehervari%E2%80%99s-dark-coil/page/13/#findComment-6081625 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reminded me of the bits of Dead Space 2 where you're up in the Solar Arrays. Just that creeping sense of rot and madness. Crumbling infrastructure, horrible things looming. A written nightmare is definitely how it feels with how he works the sense of unreality.

DarkChaplain Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago I really need to pick up a copy of that WD. Somehow I shamefully forgot when I last ordered from my prefered retailer. Figured I'd read Nightshift Nineteen in bed two nights ago, and quickly realized that I would get zero sleep if I continued. It's right back into the thick of things. Sarastus, the dome. Ritualistic self-flaggelation. Self-imposed laws/compulsions. Chaotic numerology, "Hour's" Heresy, SO MUCH STUFF in only the first few pages. Fehervari, as ever, is the gift that keeps on giving. The more you put into his works, the more you'll also get out of them - exponentially so!
