RAPID FIRE: Guy Haley Talks Prophets of Waaagh!

Welcome to this instalment of Rapid Fire, my ongoing series of quick interviews with Black Library 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 Guy Haley (for the third week in a row!) about his latest 40k audio drama, Prophets of Waaagh!, which contains three short audios (previously released in MP3-only format) all rolled up into a single package. It’s available to order right now via Black Library and also Audible, and it’s brilliant fun!

The Return of Inferno! to Black Library

Way back in the mists of time (well, 1997 to be precise) the first publication for the newly-created Black Library was a bi-monthly magazine called Inferno!, which featured short stories, comic strips and artwork all bringing the worlds of Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 to life. Inferno! ran to 46 issues over seven years, and introduced fans to a whole host of names who would go on to be regular Black Library authors. Dan Abnett, Gav Thorpe, William King, Ben Counter and a whole host of other authors published their first Black Library stories in the pages of Inferno! magazine.

Author Spotlight: Matt Smith

With the release of his second short story for Black Library, The Twisted Runes, I thought it was about time I had a quick chat with new author Matt Smith to find out a little about his background, how he came to be writing for Black Library, and what we might expect from him in future.
