Out now is the Black Library Ipad app. Just looked at it and you can download all of the Black Library titles.

What I like the best is that you can sort out the Fantasy titles and it give the series in order.

Funny what a quiet release it is. Got to iTunes and type in Black Library.

Nothing in the Australian ITunes App Store yet regarding a Black Library App. You can order black library books through the Apple iBook store now but be careful with the format. If you purchase ebooks through the Black Library website you can down load in a couple of different formats and are not restricted to the number of devices you load onto from your account. Most Apple purchases through iTunes have a limit of 5 devices or so and if you ever want to switch to a different brand of reader in the future you might struggle to maintain your library

Come now, we all know that GW doesn't believe in advertising. They just perform a few incantations and customers magically appear.

Thanks for the heads up, it works on the iphone too.

Edit: Not all of the books are there. I wanted to read firewarrior and it wasn't there; I've never read it and like ebooks. Oh well.

Holy crap that's awesome, checking it out now...

Edit:
Erm, no sign from what I could see, and I can't see anything on the web page... where did you hear this?

**Begel Dverl**

Its nice, but I have to buy the books i want to read.

**Ozymandias**

Were you expecting to get their entire catalog for free?

**agnosto**

nevermind

**Ozymandias**

Wasn't writing to you. Was asking the chap above me who lamented that he had to buy the books he wanted to read...

Yeah, I figured that out.

Move along, nothing to see here...

It's ok---basically IBooks built specifically for Black Library Titles. Crashed on me a couple of times.

I think they need to reconsider their pricing--you can pick up many of the Heresy books for 5 bucks new--and barring short stories, they price all of their E-books at 8 bucks.

Actually, yes I did. The description of the app said nothing about me having to buy stuff.

Nope, we just do it for them.

And for those who want BL books for free, there are secret corners of the interwebz that have everything you need, generally a couple months after they come out. Use Google.

For those of us who believe in supporting artists who actually make good product at a decent price (unlike the rest of GW-affiliated biz, which is generally one or the other but never both), this is great news.
