theSpirea Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 I was flipping through some older books, reading the afterwords and this one made me chuckle. Oh, how things have changed... Quote At that time, Graham McNeill had just handed in the first draft of The Outcast Dead, Gav Thorpe had almost finished writing Deliverance Lost, and Nick Kyme was about to kick off the limited edition novella range with Promethean Sun later that year. ‘I was there,’ I would tell people afterwards, even when afterwards became a time when such things were regularly celebrated, ‘I was there, the day that Nick’s book broke the website…’ Christian served jointly as Nick’s editor along with Lindsey Priestley, as well as commissioning stories for the new audio dramas and limited edition novellas. When Promethean Sun completely sold out in record time (three thousand copies in twenty-four hours, no less!) it was clear what the fans wanted – great books featuring their favourite primarch characters, breaking out of the main Horus Heresy storyline but also inextricably linked to it.

DarkChaplain Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I remember how it crashed the website.... It was so silly.

I remember trying to order my first BL book when I got back into the hobby, the Dark Imperium LE It was midday during the week, they still had one available, the BL website still crashed on me. Then defaulted to a different language. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384814-upcoming-bl-stuff-2025/page/21/#findComment-6114453 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tolmeus Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 (edited) I remember the times, when there had been days or even weeks, when a Limited Edition was on offer on the Black Library site, such as Ferrus Manus primarch book. The first LE that I bought was Solar War, which was online for about an hour.

I didnt think they were great. My school library got in the same books when I went to secondary. You could never get any books out of the library as the librarian would take her lunch during lunchtime, so would close up the place then. If you tried to go at any time other than lunchtime she would give out to you for not being in class and make you go back to class. I was a huge reader and I dont think I got to borrow one book in my 6 years there.

Felix Antipodes Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Well, I got the HB edition of Era of Ruin this morning without much fuss (in fact it’s still up on the Oz site as I type). Maybe everyone is waiting for the LE before they brave the website. Good luck to those brave souls if that’s the case.

Lord Marshal Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 (edited) Pretty baffling the Era of Ruin hardback is already sold out. Iirc they had fairly decent stock even for The End And The Death's. Then again, I guess the scalpers saw how much most HH softbacks go for on Ebay these days and wanted in - particularly if they missed the small print about the LE being released on a separate day.

Listening to the preview, I will say Miyakita sounds like he's improved since Red Tithe. Everything sounds smoother than he used to For all the bad and ranting that the siege brought though, I don't know if I'm emotionally ready for some of these stories. I know Homebound is going to bum me out Ubiquitous1984 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384814-upcoming-bl-stuff-2025/page/21/#findComment-6114754 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkChaplain Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 At least the hardback is also available via independent retailers right now. You're not actually chained to the GW store for it.

Its gonna be for sale on Amazon the rest of the year, and now you are already "out of stock online" How is that possible with presumably so much stock still left? I'll bet you right now that this is temporary on the warhammer website and it will become available again later. Anyways, I got a copy through independent retailer after I saw the message.

theSpirea Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 First Founding - I'm confusing, is this the 3rd reprint of that book? I got the very first one, then it got super-duper extra edition, and now it's reprinted? I must be reading it wrong and it's a different book, right?

I got the very first one, then it got super-duper extra edition, and now it's reprinted? I must be reading it wrong and it's a different book, right? Yeah it's a third version. And seems to be just a straight reprint with slightly altered cover, no text changes that they've announced. It's a great book and I'm glad more people will have access to them but I want more! Give me Second Founding, Ultima Founding, The Cursed Founding, Traitor versions, an SoB one, Craftworlds. Make books like this for every faction and I will be a very poor but very happy man. skylerboodie 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384814-upcoming-bl-stuff-2025/page/21/#findComment-6114996 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Antipodes Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 From Mr Abnett’s facebook page: By the way... my previous posts about this event (and, actually, pretty much anything I post) have resulted in many comments asking for Pandaemonium (Bequin book 3). Positively demanding it. And I'm delighted you're keen, because so am I. But for those who don't know, it is not MY decision when Pandaemonium gets finished and published. For reasons an NDA prevents me from discussing, Bequin 3 - and some other things - are held up for a while. It's coming - and I'll be delighted to bring it to you - but in the meantime, try to be patient... and maybe try to enjoy the things that I AM writing :) So Bequin 3 is probably done and in the BL vault awaiting release but what are the “other things” mentioned?

Felix Antipodes Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 It hoping it means non-authorial finishes (cover choice, editorial, shipping, etc) rather than finishing the book and/or afterword for LE.
