GW Reveals New Necromunda Squats & Black Library Releases
Straight from Warhammer Community, the new Black Library releases are going live for Pre-Order on August 25th, 2023!
Ironhead Squat Prospectors Claim Jumper
If there are any precious resources left to find in the blasted Ash Wastes of Necromunda, the Claim Jumper is the Squat who’ll find them. With a nose for loot and other rich pickings, accompanied by a Techmite Autoveyor to help him sniff out the good stuff, this doughty scout often steals resources right from under the noses of the major Houses. This pack of two resin miniatures will be available to pre-order next week.
This model is pretty amazing, and who doesn’t want another little robotic companion?
The Fall of Cadia (Mega Limited Edition)
Cadia is reeling from the Thirteenth Black Crusade, but Lord Castellan Creed knows that this has just been a prelude to the real terror. Abaddon the Despoiler emerges from the Eye of Terror with a warhost of impossible scale supporting him, and the true battle for Cadia begins. The Fall of Cadia by Robert Rath is an epic in every sense of the world, with perspective shifting between high commanders and grunts on the ground in a mighty tale of one of the Imperium’s most resounding losses.
If you really love this book, now you can score it in a massive limited edition form!
Vainglorious
Somehow, Caiphas Cain has been dragged back into the action. Desperate for retirement, this unlikely hero has been tapped up to find out why a newly founded Forge World has stopped producing weapons for the Imperial war machine. In Sandy Mitchel’s Vainglorious, the reluctant hero must deal with assassination attempts, rebellious Skitarii, and more as he digs into this mystery. You can pre-order this new Ciaphas Cain tale in hardback, eBook, and audiobook formats.
Ciaphas Cain is always a fun character to read about, and he actually gets two releases this week!
Ciaphas Cain: The Anthology
On top of a new novel, you can dig into a collection of Cain’s old stories meticulously collected by the Inquisitor Amberley Vail that lay out this legendary hero’s improbable career. This massive anthology features the novella Old Soldiers Never Die and 13 short stories by Sandy Mitchell, in hardback, eBook, and audiobook format.
If the first book isn’t enough for you, grab the anthology and a ton of Ciaphas stories.
Longshot
Darya Nevi is faced with an impossible choice – to stay true to herself and defend the Imperium even as her allies are picked off one by one, or give in and believe the promises made by the mysterious T’au Empire. Longshot is Rob Young’s first Black Library novel – you can read an expert right here – and will be available to pre-order in paperback, eBook, and audiobook formats next week.
It’s always fun to read about the Imperium fighting different Xenos races, so this should be fun whether you want the Tau to win or the Guard.
For Glory and Honour
In humanity’s darkest hour, as the lines between war and diplomacy blur, the Space Marines battle to protect the Imperium. For Glory and Honour collects three novels from the Space Marines Conquests series which convey the awesome and terrible might of the Primaris Space Marines. This anthology will be available in paperback and eBook, and contains Fist of the Imperium by Andy Clark, Apocalypse by Josh Reynolds, and Of Honour and Iron by Ian St. Martin.
This contains three different novels, so should give you plenty of stories to read about for Space Marines!
Kasrkin
Captain Bharath Obeysekera and his Kasrkin have been called to help rescue an Astra Millitarum general from a downed Valkyrie in the endless, sprawling deserts of Dashi i-Kevar. The T’au Empire stands in their way, but as the Astra Militarum clashes with this xenos, their war disturbs something resting deep below the sands. Kasrkin by Edoardo Albert will be available to pre-order next week.
Last but not least, you can finish off your reading with some Imperial Guard!
