During the Horus Heresy Weekender, we got a glimpse of the next three Horus Heresy novels. Here they are:
Vulkan Lives by Nick Kyme
What happens to Vulkan when he disappears in a massive ball of fire on Istvaan V? This novel highlights Vulkan as well as Conrad Kurze.
Unremembered Empires by Dan Abnett
A novel that is a sequel to many novels; No Know Fear, Fear to Tread, Betrayer, Vulkan Lives and Deliverance Lost. We see dissension within the loyalist Primarchs and then a couple of them actually going to blows!
Vengeful Spirit by Graham McNeil
A novel about Horus and what he is doing. Kicking ass and taking names. We will see the massive battle of We see a lot of Loken and the slow disintegration of the Sons of Horus. Horus thinks that he can control Chaos and use them and then put them back, but that isn't the way Chaos works.
Graphic Novel:
A graphic novel that is a sequel to Know No Fear. Art by Horus Heresy cover artist Neil Roberts.
A lot to look forward to!
Loken
The quality of the recent books has been amazing, but it looks like it's going to get even better with 'Vulcan Lives' 'Unremembered Empire' and my personal favorite 'Vengeful Spirit'.
ReplyDeleteI must say, I tried to read Nick Kyme's first Salamanders novel and it was so bad that I gave up. Which is rare for me. I almost gave up with Deliverance Lost too, but persisted in the hope it would become better (it didn't).
ReplyDeleteSad to say, I don't read heresy novels now unless they're written by ADB, Dan Abnett or Graham McNeil. That said, I did thoroughly enjoy Brotherhood of the Storm by Chris Wraight. Which is just as well, as I'm a massive White Scars fan.
The whole hard back decision for the HH has really curtailed my reading. I am still waiting for Angel exterminatus to come out in paperback. It's been a nice break, but I really want to get back into it. Answers, damn it! I still want answers!
ReplyDeleteExterminatus is out in paperback? So is betrayer. Dont think anything is coming out in the original format anymore. Sadly for my shelf display.
ReplyDeleteI will not buy any of the new books in any format other than that of the original 20ish. Sucks because I have really been wanting to read them.
ReplyDelete+1.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for them in paperback. If it's some other format I'm 100% likely to skip them.
Exterminatus is coming out in regular paperback 18 July it's available to preorder on Amazon
ReplyDeleteI remember reading on the black library blog that they will release all novels in all formats the hardback collector version is first then six months or so later the paperback would b out
ReplyDeleteSo is Vengeful Spirit about Loken after Istavaan?
ReplyDeleteSounds interesting
Any release dates?
