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: Guy Haley Talks Darkness in the Blood and Astorath: Angel of Mercy

Welcome to this instalment of my Rapid Fire series of quick author interviews, in which I’m talking to the incredibly hard-working and prolific Guy Haley about not one but two new books – Darkness in the Blood and Astorath: Angel of Mercy! Fans of Guy’s Warhammer 40,000 Blood Angels stories – primarily Dante and The Devastation of Baal – have got lots to look forward to with a pair of new additions, and seeing as both new books are due out within a few weeks of each other I’ve asked Guy to give us the lowdown on what we can expect, and how they fit in with the existing books.

RAPID FIRE: Guy Haley Talks Flesh and Steel

Welcome to this instalment of Rapid Fire, my ongoing series of quick interviews with authors talking about their new releases. These are short and sweet interviews, with the idea being that each author will answer (more or less) the same questions – by the end of each interview I hope you will have a good idea of what the new book (or audio drama) is about, what inspired it and why you might want to read or listen to it.

In this instalment I spoke to ever-prolific Black Library author Guy Haley about his new Warhammer Crime novel, Flesh and Steel, which is available to pre-order as of the 26th September. If you’re interested in a bit of ‘domestic 40k’, with a look at one of the most interesting factions in the setting, this looks like being the next book to check out!

Inferno! Volume 2 – in the Authors’ Words

After many years in the wilderness, September 2018 saw the return of Inferno! to Black Library, with a new format – a paperback anthology instead of the old magazine format – and a load of cool new stories. I celebrated this momentous occasion with an article in which I took a quick look at each of the stories in Inferno! Volume 1, and also asked the authors to give a little insight into their stories and how it felt to be included in this new anthology. Fast forward a few months and the second instalment of the new Inferno! is now available to order, so I felt it was only appropriate to put together something similar.
