By which he gets himself to Yarant, where he founds his brother Leman and his VI Legion a broken shell of itself. Written by Gav Thorpe its sole focus is on Corax and his late period of actions in the Horus Heresy. 50! And a lot more to come.īut the myriad victories and failures of the Horus Heresy as a book series is not the point we need to discuss here.Ĭhronologically, ‘Wolf Cull’ takes part before the events of the ‘Weregeld’ novella, even if the last one was written first years ago. We had mighty tomes of wisdom, joy incarnate, foretold adventures, amazing crossroads and shoes to fill).īut at the same time there were a lot of titles which made disastrous mistakes and were failures in the solid road of success.īranching the series with such prejudice is the reason why we are now getting ourselves into the 50! book range. (Which in particular was a strange road indeed. It has been a decade and more in the making, but we’re now at a point in the Horus Heresy where the end is in sight. And how it all ended up for the ambitions incarnate.īy the author words himself, we’re many years and books on, from that point in time Dan Abnett sat down to put his finger to keyboard and begin the grand saga, named Horus Heresy. We already saw the aftermath of this in the novella ‘Weregeld’. Most of the fans (at least the part who read previous books and know what they are talking about) deducted that this story will cover events of the infamous attack of the Rout on the Horus Lupercal himself. Each forum (BaC, the first expedition, heresy-online etc.) since 2015 (at least) was debating as to what this ‘Cull’ will detail. That particular event each of us saw at the big events with the Horus Heresy timeline presentation. ‘Wolfsbane’ is his second foray into the Horus Heresy long-form fiction. This book is based on the event long-discussed on each self-respecting forum/group online -’Wolf Cull’. He is the author of Reality 36, Omega Point, Champion of Mars, Crash and a lot of W40K novels, etc. He has been deputy editor of SFX magazine, and editor of Death Ray and Games Workshop’s gaming magazine White Dwarf. Guy Haley is a long time science fiction journalist and writer. The book is not in the full release yet (which will come late April/early May 2018), but I was able to get a pre-release copy at the Horus Heresy & Necromunda Weekender earlier in the month. ‘Wolfsbane’ by the hand of the mighty grot himself, Pharos torchbearer and Skarksnik archivist Guy Haley. Here we have an absolutely new and ‘long awaited’ story (especially by the Vlka Fenryka fans). A totally new story, not like the previous book ‘Burden of Loyalty’, which was a compilation of old audios/shorts and which included a ‘Wolf King’ novella mainly to build the bridge for the ‘Wolfsbane’. Again the time has come to go on the adventure that is Horus Heresy.
