By a country mile. That is why he gets a pass so often to do his thang! He's the longest writing for them and I'm pretty sure has written the most books for them. Even if every book sold the same amount of copies he'd be their biggest seller, and I'm pretty sure his sell more than other authors. Plus I'm pretty sure he's senior to most of the editors. Some of them mightnt have been born when his first one came out!

Indeed his volume of output alone would secure him best selling BL author status but pretty sure some of his novels are individually the biggest sellers too. byrd9999 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384814-upcoming-bl-stuff-2025/page/42/#findComment-6140497 Share on other sites More sharing options...
grailkeeper Posted Wednesday at 11:19 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:19 PM Out of interest I looked up one of the commissioning editors on linkedin. He started university in 2017, which is 18 years after the first guants ghosts book came out. Its entirely possible he wasn't born when it came out!

It is impossible for such things without the perfidy of the Warp's influence on time. People aren't that young, because that would make me...old.

Taliesin Posted 23 hours ago Share Posted 23 hours ago Does anyone know if the Hereticus book would be available through the usual 3rd party sellers, or will this be a GW website only thing?
