Anybody read it?
Just listened to the commissar story. Was actually so enjoyable.


Read it, didn't particularly care for it.
Spoiler:
I didn't like the way the commissar story has neither a payoff nor a link to the other two stories. It built a really good atmosphere, but had no real significance.


Just going back to this briefly also.
Spoiler:
What do you mean no link to the other two? They weren’t linked to each other either. Aside from the ending linking all three..

Honourbound and the prequel short stories also features a sanctioned psyker as a secondary character, how she's viewed by her regiment, how the commissar debriefs her after every battle and just how dangerously powerful some of them can actually be.

I understand this is M. Fischer's first 40K novel - any other reviewed material he's done?

I really hope the Vulture Lord is the start of GW focusing on Ossiarchs abit more and perhaps releasing some more models for them. I'd 100% welcome them getting point drops to make room for more model options. Even a general lore shift

"After his first, not a defeat, at the hands of Chaos and the sudden need to support armies across multiple fronts. The Ossiarchs started to shift toward using fewer souls per creation and focusing on producing greater numbers. They are still elite warriors, but now their souls are spread thinner over more forces."

Represented on the tabletop by a subtle shift that lets you use more models and thus more variety

I really liked the first book and haven't read the second one yet. I kinda fell out with BL, most was just bolter pron and that wasn't my cup of tea. I really like Wraights writing style. His If book about the scouts was a fun read. I hope its kind of a earth shattering revelations for the Inq and his acolyte but doesn't impact the wider imperium. Just like most 40k books should be, Its a big Galaxy out there and no matter what happens you will not me missed.

I too really liked the first book. Second was weaker, and felt rushed. Hopefully third one will be better, and will give a worthy conclusion to the whole story.

I hope that after the trilogy is completed, Chris Wraight gives us a version of My Wish to Generate Children with You is Only Exceeded by My Devotion to Him. Black Library needs to expand into the romance genre!

Speaking of Necron Dynasties, is the upcoming paperback release of The Twice-dead King: Ruin the first in the series? Checked the BL site, but not really getting a clear answer there.

Yeah, Ruin is book 1 and Reign is book 2. They’re really good, I would recommend them if you have any interest in Necrons already.

So the Khan near enough squandered his legion and sacrificed himself in order to banish Morty...Only for Nurgle to say 'nah fam I got you' And Morty is back in the game straight away?

I get that Chaos is ascendent at this stage but...jeez.

Looks like Primarchs are the new Avatar in fiction

Severed was really enjoyable, so I have some hopes for this one being, perhaps not as quirky as the novella, still a good read.

I managed to get it from somewhere else, and for less money, but the new Vaults of Terra standard hardback was no longer available online from GW less than an hour after it went up 🙃

I'm glad I managed to get the Vaults of Terra novel somehow, because I had a feeling it would sell out in moments. They are really dropping the ball with the hardcover stocks as of late. 😑

Any chance they'll reprint the entire VAULTS OF TERRA series?

I'd like to read the whole thing, but Books 1 and especially 2 are not realistically available these days...

They might.

BL/GW keeps most things in house so they can often do reprint runs. IF or when they will is totally random. They did a huge reprint of all 46 of the old Inferno magazines and even then they stopped at 45 and waited several months before doing the very last on its own (before that they'd done runs of 5 and then 10 issues at once).

Also don't forget ebooks - most of those are not only up for sale but often pretty affordable. You can get a lot from BL themselves (DRM free) or from places like Amazon for a Kindle ereader
