A new two book novel from Dan Abnett is on its way later this year as a two book set. Austerity, anarchy, and Arbites alongside threats unseen loom in the shadows of Hive. Intrigued about the release as a two book set rather than in separate releases. www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articl...

I didn’t enjoy the first couple of episodes of Strange New Worlds. It was months (and a back injury that left me housebound) before I drifted back for episode 3 but I’m glad I did. It’s become great. I’ve just watched Spock Amok, which was an undiluted joy. Everything that Trek can and should be.

It's the Black Library Weekly! Every Monday, Jay "Lorehunter" Kirkman takes you through what's new in the fictional worlds of Games Workshop!

I'm curious about commission painting. How does it work? What does it cost? Do I know anyone here who does it? I have finally accepted that, as much as I love buying, building, gaming, I just really dislike painting those minis.

My first ever solo title is THIRTEEN years-old! I guess this means I'm no longer that bright-eyed twenty-something who's picture graces my Goodreads page... www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...

I swear the Guardian republishes this exact article every year: Games Workshop is massively successful and we’re all SHOCKED. www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

How about start with a less delicious picture on your website?

I’ve finished watching Alien: Earth and, as they did with Daredevil: Born Again, Disney have managed to make a reasonably IP-flavoured show, while just missing that actual IP ingredient

Playing Baldur’s Gate 3 is like writing a book. You get to what you assume must be the end, but then it just never ever stops.
