For all the fans of the HH that maybe dont have the time to look at the Black Library website, and to make you all suffer the pain when you see the release dates of the best looking ones :wink:

This interests me....

I just bought the other two HH audiobooks so we'll see how this listening to stuff malarkey pans out....

Let's hope it might be missing legion related.

Is Prospero Burns a continuation of thousand sons.If not already been done

[Baragash]

Same story from the other side basically.

[Phoenix Blaze]

A story that was supposed to be release right after A Thousand Sons, not in the next year. Idiots.

Age of Darkness sounds good. There is this thing where, Istvaan 5 happens, then suddenly the Siege. There's never really an indication of what happens in between then.

Can't wait for the First Heretic. Hopefully they present Lorgar in a good (and by that I mean awesome, not good as in nice) light. He was spurned by his short sighted father so looked to other sources to worship. He has every reason to turn against the Emperor.

[Baragash]

The reason it's behind schedule is because Abnett was diagnosed with epilepsy in that time.

But of course... idiots

[Tarion]

I know right. Taking time off for health issues is so unfair

Looking forward to these. I've been meaning to buy more of the Horus Heresy books. By the time most of these are released, I should be ready for them

[Phoenix Blaze]

Really? Oh....shit, okay then, fair play.

[DEATHorGLORY189]

Prospero Burns probably will be another disappointment...not really a heresey story but an ever-going battle and quest to kill brothers that were already disliked. Nemesis, a novel on the assasorium interests me. Hopefully it will be as good as Mechanicum(should have aftermath). The First Heretic should be a masterpiece.

p.s It took some months for Fallen Angels to come out, maybe it will be better because of it.

Whah? The siege of Prospero was one of the most important events in the Heresy.

[DrakonTheNightLord]

I do wonder if we need it told twice though..

[Xarboth]

I was speaking to some GW staff yesterday, and one of them mentioned that Prospero Burns had been put back again from January. The other staff member hadn't heard that news though, so I have no idea how reliable that information may be.

[Masshuu]

Just updated my list, theres another Garro: audiobook comin out before the one I had put on the list first, either I missed it or it was added afterwards but it seems that Garro: is going to be an audiobook mini series.

[SourImplant]

Looks like a short extract from Nemesis was added to its Black Library page, for those who want to get their Custodes lovin' a little early.

The Black Library - Nemesis

[Masshuu]

If the whole book is as good as that extract its going to be a really good read. Thanks Sour

[SourImplant]

Don't think I've even seen any mention of the Custodes in any of the M41 books I've read so far, but they're quickly becoming my favorite group of the Horus Heresy timeline.

[Interex]

Blood Games? Short story about them.

[SourImplant]

Blood Games? Short story about them.

That was one of the short stories in the Tales of Heresy book, right? Loved that one. I just haven't seen any sort of mention of the Adeptus Custodes in the modern timeline. Then again, I'm only slowly working my way through omnibus collections of the Horus Heresy authors, so my reading thus far has been restricted to Abnett's Inquisitor Trilogies and the Gaunst's Ghosts series, and McNiell's first Ultramarines Trilogy.

[Interex]

Probably wont read of them in the mordern timeline books, as they dont do anything anymore apart from staying in the palace.
