Speak Like A Space Marine with Horus Heresy The Scripts: Volume II

hh-script-book-ii
Following up on last year's hardcover release of The Horus Heresy The Scripts: Volume I, next month will see the release of Volume II in the series, so if you're interested in writing audio drama, reading these stories in their original format or even performing them yourself, here's your opportunity.

This new hardback features two of my audio scripts featuring The Flight of the Eisenstein's Nathaniel Garro - Sword of Truth and Burden of Duty.

The galaxy continues to burn. Rebellions rise. Titans duel across ruined cities. Villains prove themselves heroes. Silence itself becomes a weapon, and a terrible war rages in the hidden depths. These tales are legendary – from the darkest dungeons of Caliban to the foot of the Golden Throne, they will be retold for millennia still to come.

Within these pages you will find the complete production scripts for the next six Horus Heresy audio dramas – ‘The Sigillite’, ‘Honour to the Dead’, ‘Garro: Sword of Truth’, ‘Garro: Burden of Duty’, ‘Grey Angel’ and ‘Censure’. With full soundtrack direction, character notes, and an exclusive introduction from editor Laurie Goulding, take a look behind the scenes of Black Library’s most popular series.


The Horus Heresy The Scripts: Volume II will be on sale next month from the Black Library website, and you can pre-order a copy Here.

Captain Garro gets Enhanced

ea-legion-of-oneea-oath-of-momentA while back I started writing a series of original audio drama stories featuring Battle Captain Nathaniel Garro, the hero of my Horus Heresy novel The Flight of the Eisenstein.

After his appearance in the novel, readers were interested in seeing a lot more of him, and that coincided nicely with Black Library's decision to produce audio stories.

Garro came to life thanks to amazing voice actor Toby Longworth, and since then he's appeared in four tales, with new adventures still to come.

The first two tales in Garro's ongoing story were Oath of Moment and Legion of One, and this month they are being re-released, but in a new "Enhanced Audio Edition" form.

These new versions are presented as an eBook featuring the full script and incorporating audio elements that you can read and hear on iPad, Android (using epub3 compatible software), PC or Mac platforms - so if you haven't come across them yet, this is cool new way to experience these tales.

Oath of Moment takes place shortly after the events of Flight...; In surviving the horrors on board the Eisenstein, Nathaniel Garro proved his courage and absolute loyalty to the Emperor. On his return to Terra, Garro is despatched on a mission of even greater importance – a mission given to him by Malcador the Sigillite himself. He soon finds himself back amongst the stars and on the fields of battle, thrust into a warzone where the Ultramarines are purported to be battling a greenskin invasion. Once again Garro must fight for survival, but now he also fights to achieve a higher purpose...

Legion of One is set one year after Oath...; Nathaniel Garro, loyalist Death Guard, and hero of the Eisenstein, has found a new calling in his service to the Emperor. Surrounded by a cloak of secrecy, Garro travels the galaxy in pursuit of his new goal. His quest will lead him to heart of the most destructive warzones, and reveal a secret that will change the course of the Horus Heresy itself...

Garro: Oath of Moment Enhanced Audio Edition is available directly from Black Library Here.

Garro: Legion of One Enhanced Audio Edition is available directly from Black Library Here.
