Andy: I'm afraid the Liber Chaotica is a Games Day pre-release, so it won't be available in the stores until the November releases come out (mid-October time).

Nichola: I'll have my signing pen ready, make sure to say hello :)

Much as I love them, there's no mention of the Lamenters as I wanted to focus on the Scythes in this one. It is, however, set after Miral and touches upon what they're doing in the wake of Hive Fleet Kraken after Ichar IV.

Richard Williams Rogue Pom's blog review of Reiksguard: "The book is generally well written. I didn't find it tedious or boring, and it moved along at a fair clip. I wouldn't rank it up there with the Time of Legend series, but it is looking like a promising addition to the Fantasy background."

Richard Williams Review of Reiksguard from Falcata Times blog: "Its well written, it’s thought provoking but above all its about the unification of a bond of outcasts into one order who will listen to each other or at least have a mutual respect for one another."

Richard Williams One of the staffers in the GW store mentioned this website's review of Relentless... and it didn't disappoint.

I simply have to use the "So you could read the book as a conflict between monogamous manlove and promiscuous straights, if you really wanted to." quote on a dust-jacket sometime...

Regular Ferretbrain readers will have noted that I have been binging on Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 tie-in novels lately. Hot on the heels of consuming The Founding, I turned my attention to Relentless, the debut novel of Richard Williams. ...
