Other than The Horus Heresy, I had to switch over to Kindle on practical grounds - if I hadn't I'd have had to find enough bookshelf space for (checks list) 430 books.

I already have (list again) 2147 real books.

I have not tried an ereader. Perhaps that would solve my problems. However, I still have a huge library of books to get through, and a love of the tactile experience. When I get older and my eyes fail me more and more, I’ll get that kindle and finally read up on those wacky Newcrons.


Yeah, one of the upsides. I like the tactile nature of books a lot too, and the non-issue with batteries, and the fact that you own the thing and not just a license, etc. etc. etc. But there are benefits, and increasing font size is one of them. Some of them (not sure about Kindles) can also link to your local public library also and you can borrow books that way.

This. I decorate with books. I have an absurd amount of books. My poor Nook had a 1k+ library of books accumulated on it. My paperwhite has a significantly smaller amount of books but I mostly use it for trashy kindle unlimited series.

I have 805 Kindle books in total, and still using what is claimed to be the best one out there, the Kindle Voyage. 8 years old, replaced the battery because a 'full' charge of 90-2 % wasn't good enough for me.

I suppose the answer is no, since I can't find it, but any whispers or hints of when Dan Abnett's Pandemonium will be coming out?
