It’s Saturday, which means new books are here! This week sees a plethora of pre-orders, from the Horus Heresy to Horror and much more besides. Let’s see what you’ll be reading next week!
Luther is one of the Horus Heresy’s most fascinating characters. Adoptive father to the Lion, he stood by the primarch’s side for decades, before turning to darkness and leading half the First Legion with him. What caused this change? In Gav Thorpe’s Luther: First of the Fallen you’ll get Luther’s own answer to that question.
This limited edition hardback is your first chance to hear the arch-Fallen’s story. It includes internal art and Gav’s signature on all 2,500 copies, so pre-order yours now before it sells out!*
With Halloween just a week away, the new season of Warhammer Horror is beginning with a novel by Peter Fehervari. The Reverie is set in the 41st Millennium and delves deeper into the Angels Resplendent, a Space Marine Chapter later known as the Angels Penitent, about whom Peter has written before. You’ll visit their homeworld and discover the secrets of the mysterious Reverie as three strangers, each drawn there, discover their destinies.
