Upcoming BL Stuff 2025

Unpopular cover font aside (I personally don’t hate it), Blades of Atrocity was a very solid short which gave Rassaq, our main character, some very compelling motivation. Excited for this one, even though ADB’s Night Lords are going be a very tough act to follow!

The font would work if they made the rest of the cover look like a piece of armour. It just doesnt work on this cover, and kind of makes it look like a book aimed at teens.

 

Book covers that look like armour could be cool. Especially if it was designed to look like a Marine Pauldron. 

Can anybody remind me why THIS Night Lords novel isn't part of the Renegades series, when it followed pretty much the same pattern as Harrowmaster and Lord of Excess, first introducing the character via shorts and then putting out a character-focused novel? I swear, they forget their own series and imprints more often than they remember them....

Most likely cause the series are a marketing ploy. And none of them except the HH have ever worked. 

 

The fact that they choose such broad and meaningless themes doesnt help matters. 

 

 

Questionable cover art/font aside (Krakenblood is fine), it seems like a pretty decent spread of books to release between now and 43 years from now. Probably will pick up all three at some point, but I do feel bad in advance for Vincent with all of the Talos book comparisons he's going to see

WarCom articles do be the kinda stuff that Abominable Intelligence would excel at, assuming they're not being made by bots already.

Beer continuing to get novels is an absolute win. I love his take on all things technological so he should be a great fit for a Necron focus.

 

As with any debut novel, I'm curious about the Night Lords book. If it's even half as good as any of its predecessors, it'll still be awesome. 

 

Space Wolves are a skip unless it looks like it's doing something interesting. Krakendoom doesn't meet this criteria, at a glance, and while I find Collins solid enough he's not an author that would make me check out a book just because his name's on it.

Annandale wrote the Primarch novel but nothing else comes to mind other than side appearances in other books

The Black Library book that was the biggest struggle for me to finish to date! Almost made me wish it was written by Nick Kyme instead. 

 

Almost.

I notice that there hasn’t been a digital release of the new R/S Wilt novel on the BL website.  Have I missed something or is this something new on BL’s part?

 

(No digital release for Lords of Silence either, but not sure if they do ebook editions of those)

Probably just forgot to upload it, should be available this upcoming week. It’s happened once or twice before.
