Taliesin Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I found something very interesting. The Horus Heresy: Siege of Terra: Book 2 by Guy Haley- release date October for the regular hardcover. mr.crusader and Wulfburk 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelborn Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) Man....Guy's a machine. He's throwing novel after novel at us. Edited March 17, 2019 by Kelborn Preliminary Bombardment and Wulfburk 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preliminary Bombardment Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 He can somehow put out 4 books a year. I've never seen anything like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izlude Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 About Guy is that I would say it is both quality and quantity in my book. While Wraight, ADB, French, and Abnett can do no wrong in my book, Haley is not very far and I have really enjoyed everything he has put out. As for Seige do we think all 8 books will get the LE treatment? Got the first one and definitely will get the last. I can’t imagine they would make all eight like this. mc warhammer 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, why wouldn't they? They're doing all the Primarchs books as limited edition. Admittedly, I'm no more interested in LE of the Siege than I am the Primarchs books. But it seems plenty of people are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkChaplain Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I'm torn on Haley's rapid output, for a rather selfish reason: BL is keeping him so busy, it's putting a serious dent in his original works, all of which I greatly enjoyed. But damn me, he really does manage to marry quantity with quality like few authors ever could. I'm stoked for his Siege contribution. What are the chances of him tackling Perturabo a good bit? The paperback for The Solar War is now listed on Amazon for November 26, by the by. Judging by the price, it'll remain in large format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titandeath and Dark Imperium were pretty good, but I didn't think they were even close to Dante/Devastation of Baal, Perturabo, or his Ork stories. I've given up on ever getting any of the LE books. As lovely as they are, and as much as not having some of the LE short stories kills me, I just can't justify the price.

Kelborn Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) Well, if that's the case: The Scars' LE will be mine! Don't you dare touching it! :P Edited March 17, 2019 by Kelborn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manchu warlord Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I really hope each book will be written by a different author. As much as I love Haley (he is my 3rd favorite BL author), I'd prefer not to see his name appear twice (or more) on this octology of unparalleled greatness; it will be asymmetrical and makes the collection on the shelf look cringey.

Wulfburk Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) Well, its safe to say John French, ADB, Dan Abnett, Guy Haley, Gav Thorpe, Graham Mcneil and Chris Wraight will all get 1. Leaves 1 for another author or for one of those. There's also James Swallow, which i woudnt mind at all (though fron the buried dagger topic i see many would). On another note when are the Solar War LE expected to arrive? I just want to read some non spoiler reviews, already pre ordered mine from my national amazon, probably got some 2 and a half months to wait edit: ALSO the dramatis personae would be awesome, gimme alexis polux plzz Edited March 18, 2019 by Wulfburk Manchu warlord 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareddm Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Either double up on one of those names, or add David Annandale to the list, would be my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.crusader Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 As I remember many short stories and audiodramas (novellas?) were promised. So, one or even two books could be anthologies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karden00 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I got drunk and ordered a copy on the New Zealand GW site; to be delivered to my uncle. Then I was bad and ordered a copy from the NZ site to my house in the UK- no idea if it’ll be honoured, but I’ve got all the other HH limited editions, and I’ll be damned if I don’t get this...

Tymell Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I heard from someone on here that David Annandale had indicated he wasn't writing a novel for the Siege (he also wasn't present at the final planning meeting). My money would probably be on Nick Kyme for the other. Yes, he's not generally popular on here, but he has contributed a lot of works to the series. As I remember many short stories and audiodramas (novellas?) were promised. So, one or even two books could be anthologies. I believe there will be some anthologies, but I doubt any of those 8 will be such. They were put forward as novels, and it would seem a bit off to cut out the novel contribution of an author when there are so many who have worked on this series so far.

aa.logan Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 You, sir, are a true gentleman. Just a drunken fool who is far too invested in having a ‘complete’ collection... I cancelled the other orders having secured my own via the GW website and am now listening to Titandeath at a much faster pace than I’d originally wanted to in order to catch up before I get my hands on the Solar War Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manchu warlord Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 I still think it would be cool if the Lutheran Dark Angles with their start fort Chimaera comes to Terra somehow. Either on the loyal side and dueling with one of the Abyssal ship, the Blessed Lady perhaps, or on the traitor side and dueling with the Phalanx.

Kelborn Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 I'd love to read that, as well. IT was such a cool and interesting idea and it was dropped right after Wolfking. I thought that they joined Russ but nope, never heard of them again. Manchu warlord 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Loss Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Really happy with that news. I'm guessing that Haley will double up given his speed, and maybe French, seeing as he wrote the first one (which would be great as the more French the merrier). Wulfburk, Roomsky, Knockagh and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandlemad Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 It's a good team. Haley doing two seems almost certain but besides French doing the first one, I think he also did a lot of the 'worldbuilding' for Terra and the cultures of the solar system, both in prep for Praetorian of Dorn and (I think, it's hard to trace what was his work and what was Alan Bligh's and other's) in the FW black books, stuff like the Selenar gene-cults. Gives him a bit of a leg up and might make two books to his name plausible. Even without Graham McNeill, they still manage to be predominantly bald and bearded...
