Felix Antipodes Posted Monday at 02:59 PM Share Posted Monday at 02:59 PM Reading it right now.

Just finished the book (Helbrecth Sin of Hope), enjoyed it. More than the previous Helbrecht one. No spoilers but I enjoyed the High Marshall personal journey trought the story. Other 2 protagonists, Elysian and Squat have a solid part on the story aswell. Overall a good Black Templar book in my opinion. Of the recent ones, Broken Crusade and this one, are solid picks.

wecanhaveallthree Posted Wednesday at 02:57 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 02:57 PM Dang, Zimmerman's really getting the push, isn't he? I haven't connected with any of his work for 40K so far, but I'm starting to think this might be because I have bad taste in books (as opposed to a taste for bad books). Am I so out of touch? captain_skinnarius_no_it_is_the_neophytes_who_are_wrong.gif 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387216-upcoming-bl-stuff-2026/page/39/#findComment-6192411 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roomsky Posted Wednesday at 05:15 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:15 PM (edited) https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/n1s11hao/the-next-scouring-book-revealed-wrath-of-terra/ Next Scouring novel announced - a fight for Mars, and written by French! The Horus Heresy is over. Now, in Wrath of Terra by John French, the vengeful Imperium turns its eyes towards Mars – a world of nightmare machines and the holdouts of the traitorous Dark Mechanicum. As the war heads towards the Martian cauldron of ruin, an Ultramarine fights to secure the future of the Imperium, a defeated Iron Warrior seeks sanctuary among the wasteland beyond the light of Sol, and a Blood Angel fights for salvation in the shadow of his father's death. Meanwhile, back on Terra, while primarchs and High Lords scramble for power, Moriana Mouhausen, once of the Chosen of Malcador, seeks to balance the needs of the future against the fury of the present.

cheywood Posted Wednesday at 05:20 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:20 PM Exactly who I was hoping would write it. Maybe a bit of a hot take but with this novel 2026 has got to be in contention for best year of the decade so far. Lots and lots of stuff to enjoy this year, even if it is a little back loaded 1 3 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387216-upcoming-bl-stuff-2026/page/39/#findComment-6192439 Share on other sites More sharing options...
grailkeeper Posted Wednesday at 05:26 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:26 PM Going off the spine it looks very thick. Maybe the reason we've been waiting so long is because there is so much in it? John French is alright. I wouldn't say his books are bad but he doesn't really appeal to me. If this was a solo project I wouldn't go for it, but I'll probably get this. 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387216-upcoming-bl-stuff-2026/page/39/#findComment-6192440 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roomsky Posted Wednesday at 05:35 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:35 PM I'm actually so relieved it's French, and especially that it's French writing about Mars. He always brings complexity and dignity to the characters he writes about - and he's skilled at communicating the weight of history on a faction, especially important when dealing with the Mechanicum. I wonder if Kelbor Hal's finally gonna get some more focus here or if Sota-Nul's gonna steal his thunder again. 3 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387216-upcoming-bl-stuff-2026/page/39/#findComment-6192442 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lathe Biosas Posted Wednesday at 05:56 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:56 PM Eh... I'm not convinced. I still have a bit of argh after reading French's Cypher: Lord of the Nothing Happens. 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387216-upcoming-bl-stuff-2026/page/39/#findComment-6192449 Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkhorse0607 Posted Wednesday at 06:11 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:11 PM Now I can finally stop complaining about the lack of Scouring, and go back to complaining about Black Legion 3. Just as nature intended. That being said, I am glad it's French as well (Wraight again would have also been fine). Feelings about some of his earlier stuff aside, he really grew on me with Slaves to Darkness, so another ensemble book sounds great from him. Glad their keeping the IW character around as well, if it's the same one from Ashes 4 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387216-upcoming-bl-stuff-2026/page/39/#findComment-6192454 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkChaplain Posted Wednesday at 06:33 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:33 PM Meh, the Fehervari story isn't Blindsight? No reason to buy this, then, since Nightshift Nineteen is in the Omnibuses already. 4 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387216-upcoming-bl-stuff-2026/page/39/#findComment-6192460 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wecanhaveallthree Posted Wednesday at 10:47 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:47 PM Very keen to see French on Mars. Now, here's a question: will the Guardian subplot be tidied up along with the Dark Mechanicum, or will we never mention it again? 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387216-upcoming-bl-stuff-2026/page/39/#findComment-6192482 Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for anything else im glad its French, we could have gotten Thorpe or Kyme which are both cursed. It would be nice if say ADB came out of nowhere as its now been over 4 years since we got a full length novel from him.

Fedor Posted Friday at 01:20 AM Share Posted Friday at 01:20 AM I'm up for French on Mars. That cover though...looks like the winner of a "design the most generic 30k art possible" competition. 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387216-upcoming-bl-stuff-2026/page/39/#findComment-6192625 Share on other sites More sharing options...
