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.
A
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...
