From the Newsfeed:

 

'War Without End' will be Book XXXIII in the Horus Heresy series, another collection of fantastic stories from across the length and breadth of the war. And on the cover,you'll find ten warriors, one from each of the Legions who remained true to their oaths of fealty (including the Dark Angels... see, told you) and a mysterious, grey-armoured warrior. Don't know what he's all about...

 

Download this cover now, and sign up for Horus Heresy reminders to find out when 'War Without End' is released. You won't have to wait long. We promise...

I enjoyed Legacies of Betrayal, I generally don't get the audio stuff or the limited edition short stories that pop up so having all those stories in one was great and the book was cheap so looking forward to the loyalist version.

Nice, so now we know book 33 WWE (nice acronym!) , 34 Pharos, 35 Eye of Terra which I'm guessing covers both sides and I would hope, more on Terra. Wolf A&F plus Gates of Terra I expect to see there. I'm hoping both anthologies give me stories from ADB, Guy, and Chris W. though it would be nice to get some Abnett and McNeill in these books as well :)

It would be nice if they could reveal the table of contents.

 

Since Eye of Terra is a full reprint anthology, I wonder if this is all new material, or a mix of new and previously published things. I think it will be the latter ( which is fine btw, but some new work in there is nice).

 

This is all nice and good but still only a prelude to the release of MoM, Crimson King ( recently confirmed again by McNeill on his blog) and Path of Heaven. It really will the year of the Heresy if they release all of those!

Jareddm - it was released in 2015. I read it on the 25th of December 2015. Don't understand you people who doesn't read ebooks or wait half a year for some specific format

Are you going to buy me a tablet? Because I'm not reading a novel sitting in front of my computer screen.

Has it actually been confirmed that Eye of Terra is going to be -all- old stories? I've seen plenty of people guessing at that (usually just based on the assumption that it will contain The Wolf of Ash and Fire), but I haven't seen official confirmation yet. And people also insisted adamantly that Vow of Faith was a full novel, or that it was a collection of previous stories.

 

Anywho, I'm hoping both have some new bits, or at the very least contain stories that haven't been released in print before. I know The Imperial Truth still isn't a numbered entry in the series, but those stories and that book have been around for a good while now.

In fairness, you don't need a tablet or to sit at a computer. I just got a piece of software on my phone that allows me to read epub and mobi formats on that. I still like to get the book when it does come out in the right format for me, but it's convenient enough.

It has not in fact been drafted that book 35 will be all previous content. While given the past two years I can understand why one might think that but my ample gut tells me there has to beat least something new in there to bridge to final Gauntlet arc. Just my opinion though.

I mean, everyone has their reasons for preferring hardcopy books over digital ones, I certainly have several, and others go vice versa, but reading a 400 page book on my phone is something I couldn't imagine myself doing anyway. A few pages, at best.

War Without End contents:

 

This anthology contains twenty-one stories from the Horus Heresy:
Sermon of Exodus by David Annandale
Howl of the Hearthworld & Lord of the Red Sands by Aaron Dembski-Bowden
Black Oculus by John French
The Laurel of Defiance, A Safe and Shadowed Place & Twisted by Guy Haley
Artefacts, The Phoenician, Imperfect & Chirurgeon by Nick Kyme
The Devine Adoratrice & Wolf Mother by Graham McNeill
Hands of the Emperor & The Harrowing by Rob Sanders
Virtues of the Sons by Andy Smillie
All That Remains & Gunsight by James Swallow
By the Lion's Command by Gav Thorpe
Allegiance & Daemonology by Chris Wraight

 

These stories have been previously available in the anthologies The Imperial Truth, Sedition's Gate, Death and Defiance & Blades of the Traitor.

 

 

So nothing new, just four anthologies thrown into one. Good move to get it over with, but disappointing for those who have read them before.

Aye. I'm pretty disappointed that's all it is, not just previously released stories, but stories already out in print (at least Legacies of Betrayal had some very rare ones and some audios done in prose). The one plus is I'm impressed they're putting together all four of those anthologies into one, and thus releasing a lot of stuff some might have avoided in the past due to price or format (I for one want the entire series on my shelf in mass market paperback size, one day).

Patient man. I originally was collected in what they term "legendary" paperback (the small ones). Then someone decided no one buys that anymore. Thanks BL. And since that change I've bought well under 2/3rd of the novels I used to buy as I can't justify hardback all the time and I stare at screens enough as is without buying ebooks to make it worse. Not that they care about that.

My inner completist makes me buy these in series heresy novels in hardback. Plus pretty pictures every so often.

This is a gap I can't leave on my shelf, despite having read the rest!

 

Nice to have it in one book admittedly, and for those who haven't read the others.

I know this pain all too well. Especially because I switched to the trade paperbacks with the intent of converting over all the old books with the rereleases. No one ever mentioned they're only doing trade paperbacks for the first three...

Little bummed I read them all (I have Death and Defiance as well as Blades of the Traitor) I have the other two as electronic book (which is impossible to get as a book now). For anyone who doesn't have access to these limited edition books, I think this compilation is pretty awesome as most of the stories were pretty good. I am bummed no new content or transcription of audios like Legacies of Betrayal. 

 

I am tempted as it is not too expensive for a hardback.
