AUTHOR INTERVIEW: Guy Haley Talks Richards & Klein

Welcome to this Track of Words Author Interview, where today I’m chatting to regular contributor Guy Haley – but this time it’s a little different to usual, as we’re talking about Richards & Klein, a brand new “rewritten, remastered, renewed” omnibus edition of his sci-fi novels Reality 36 and Omega Point! Originally published back in 2011 and 2012, they’re back in this cool new volume from Angry Robot – out on the 25th May – which, as you’ll find out later, is much more than a straightforward reprint. Whether you’re already a Guy Haley fan and you want to check out some of his non-Warhammer fiction, or you’re just on the lookout for a fun SF adventure, this is definitely one to check out!

RAPID FIRE: Darius Hinks Talks Gitslayer

Welcome to this instalment of my Rapid Fire series of author interviews, where today I’m chatting to the excellent chap that is Darius Hinks about his new Black Library novel Gitslayer. Darius already has form writing about the irascible Slayer Gotrek Gurnisson in the Age of Sigmar, and this is his second Gotrek novel after 2019’s entertaining Ghoulslayer. It also bears what is surely one of the finest titles in all of the Black Library range! Gitslayer goes up for pre-order in hardback (via the Games Workshop website), ebook and MP3 audiobook (via the Black Library website and, presumably by then, Amazon) on Saturday 15th May, so if you’re keen to get your hands on Gotrek’s next adventure read on to find out more about it!

RAPID FIRE: Denny Flowers Talks Fire Made Flesh

Welcome to this instalment of my Rapid Fire series of author interviews, where today I’m talking to Denny Flowers about his debut novel for Black Library, Fire Made Flesh. Denny has already written a novella and various short stories as part of BL’s Necromunda range, but this is his first full-length novel – and it promises to be a great read for Necromunda fans, not least because it explores some of the Necromundan guilds in ways we haven’t seen before! Fire Made Flesh is available to order in paperback via the book trade (i.e. Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Waterstones etc.) right now, and is due to be available direct from Black Library/Games Workshop at some point in May, in paperback and ebook formats.
