Author Mike Haspil Returns to Black Library With Cthonia’s Reckoning!
Haspil has been a long-time guest on the Long War Podcast and it’s really cool to see him getting another publication in the Black Library. If you want to grab a copy of his first e-short yourself, you can here!
Let’s take a closer look at the newest book.
Cthonia’s Reckoning $27
This anthology contains seven all-new short stories from some of the stalwarts of Black Library – Sons of Cthonia by John French, To the Last by Michael F Haspil, The Gangs Beneath by Gary Kloster, The Flesh Harvest by Nicholas Wolf, Traitor’s Faith by Noah Van Nguyen, For Hate’s Sake by Gav Thorpe, and Postulant by Chris Forrester. It’s the perfect complement to the game, going deeper into some of the setting’s key players and factions, and it’ll be available in four formats – hardback novel, eBook, MP3, and a luxury collector’s edition with a leather-effect cover.
With the new edition basically here, now is the time to start reading and getting all that inspiration you need. Plus, it’s always good to see someone so involved in the community as Mike getting some work put out there in the Black Library! Plus, who doesn’t love reading about the early days of humanity (relatively speaking to 40k…).

Author Mike Haspil Black Library Debut
Recently resurrected, Lord Commander Eidolon of the Emperor’s Children is still reeling from his death at the hands of Fulgrim.
Determined to cure his sluggish form, he goes in search of pure Emperor’s Children geneseed – only to find his curse may actually be a blessing.
Eidolon had a rough go of it for a while there! First, he had his head cut off by Fulgrim after he angered him (he even had his blood drank by members at the banquet…). Then, Fabius Bile reattached his head and brought him back, and as you can imagine, he was a little thrown off by the whole situation.
How you would feel if you had your head reattached? Well, you don’t have to wonder much longer as that is where this story picks it up. Will he turn this blessing into a curse or will things just get worse? Well, read the story and find out!
