I’ve flagged it up as a comment in the admin announcement in the main forum that it’s still closed. The mod who originally closed it did so early in the morning UK time, so hopefully he’s online to sort it out. System Sound 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aa.logan Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 @Ubiquitous1984, sorry, yes- I pegged it back to the station once I’d secured my copy and promptly fell asleep once on the train. Feel really bad for those in the queue who didn’t manage to get a copy, mind.

But they’ve all seemed to take it in good grace, and mentioned that they enjoyed chatting to fellow fans in the queue. Really pleased that you got one after such a huge trek through the night!

Tolmeus Posted February 25, 2023 Author Share Posted February 25, 2023 I haven't read/ listend to 'The End and the Death Vol. 1' as of yet, but considering the still open discussion about whether the SoT series will in fact have 2 or 3 volumes of 'The End and the Death', I thought about the artworks of the Limited Editions. Till now each SoT book (not novella) got artwork for a pair of Primarchs. The only ones left since Echoes are Alpharius, Lion El'Johnson, Konrad Curze and Roboute Guilliman. So 2x2 Primarchs for two volumes. Might be a bit of a hunch, but the thought struck me just now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urauloth Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Audible is deranged, I swear: I've been waiting for these books to make it to the platform, and they haven't shown up in pre-orders or new releases at all. If I didn't check this thread, I'd have no idea they were now available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylerboodie Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 I managed to order The End and the Death and The Iron Kingdom special editions from GW last week (one order, UK) but not yet had a dispatch email, which I usually get in the early hours on release day; it's still showing as 'Pending' in my account. Are other UKers in a similar situation? Getting very nervous about receiving my SoT book, given the short supply and warehouse issues!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I showed up at 9.30 as I don't usually buy the limited edition Horus Heresy books and usually when showing up at that time there's no one in the queue so obviously didn't get one, am I getting something wrong or were you waiting since 2am and others showed up at 6?

If that's the case I severely underestimated peoples desire for the book. I was there at 1, others started arriving after 4. The train timetable meant I could either show up *far* too early or probably too late. Had it not been during the half-term holidays, and had United had a home, Saturday fixture I wouldn’t have been able to go at all, but the calendar was kind to me. The fact that around 10% of the printed copies ended up on eBay before it was even released and went for at least 5x it’s retail price says more about the demand for the book than my willingness to stand in the cold overnight- mild discomfort and sleep deprivation was a lesser price for me to pay, more fiscally and morally. The staff at the store were lovely, and very apologetic, assuring us that they’d been told changes to the online ordering we’re going to be made, and maybe they will be. Getting things back on the topic of upcoming titles, the ‘Coming Soon’ page now has no new titles listed, there’s only omnibuses yet to be released. The most obvious window for Creed and the sniper book that I’m really looking forward to (alongside the models) has passed but I’m hoping that at least one of those is out next week… JustinDHill 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At last count there are 120 people who have entered the raffle. It’s crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightinfa Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Anyone care to speculate on potential release date for End and the Death Volume 2? I feel like best case scenario is May, but fear it may be more like July (I don't want to think about waiting longer than that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon and Schuster has it listed as an august release: https://catalog.simonandschuster.com/TitleDetails/TitleDetails.aspx?cid=1440&isbn=9781804070505&FilterByName=Season&FilterBy=15&FilterVal=Summer+2023&ob=0&pn=1&ed=&showcart=N&camefrom=&find=&a= Maybe it’s coming in hardcover first, but as I recall a lot of the Guard releases have been straight to paperback recently.

The ebook apparently just says: No word about a conclusion. There's no afterword either. I'm avoiding the book thread because of spoiler reasons, so for those who don't know yet, the hardback says the story will CONCLUDE with Book 2. cheywood and skylerboodie 1 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
