About this deal

Fear, courage and kindness – and surprising gentleness – are explored to the full throughout, often in places you would not expect. The two began dating and moved to Los Angeles together following their graduation in 2001 to seek work in recording studios. In July 2009, the band announced signing with the German underground label Massacre Records for European distribution. The world of the 31st millennium is very different to our own, but in ADB’s description of a dying planet, the challenge laid out is to compare it to today and not flinch.

You know where it starts – and you know where the story ends – so instead of going beat-by-beat through the book, noting every reference and every shot fired (I’m sure you can go elsewhere for that) let’s talk about a Black Library book outside the Library, outside the “does it take the Heresy where it needs to go” and into why it does, and why it does it so well.Echoes goes beyond talking about duty and faith, courage and heroism, genetic and cultural intelligences – the sins, most definitely writ large, of the father – in the 31st millennium and makes us dwell upon it in ours. I feel kind of bad about making another Echoes thread, but most of the discussion so far seems to be traitor fans being a bit overzealous over the bad hand they got, and then loyalist fans going “best book ever lol get cucked. The wounds of war, industry, capitalism, writ upon the face of the supposedly apolitical future where we, as fans, will not be able to look away.

Book Review: Echoes of Eternity by Aaron Dembski-Bowden

But as a book – as a way forward for the Black Library – it is much, much more, and Aaron Dembski-Bowden deserves the Crux Terminatus for his work here to bring us something above and beyond the bounds of Warhammer fiction. Overall, I think the pros outweigh the cons, especially since much of the cons were good, but misplaced scenes/ideas. The narrative goes through “the gap” between what we knew and where we know Abnett will take us in The End and the Death. We read tales – the heresy series is millions of words of tales – about war as fought by gods and monsters, but they’re not really war. Because after all this suffering they went through, with how dire the situation is, he cannot fault anyone to want to spend their last moments with their loved ones.Bereft of his brothers, Sanguinius – the Angel of the Ninth Legion – waits on the final battlements, hoping to rally a desperate band of defenders and refugees. Become the envy of all other tiny, barely-sapient greenskins everywhere with these especially snotty Snotling dice for Blood Bowl, which come in lime-green, yellow, and purple. The dream of the Emperor did not die at Istvaan, or in Magnus’ Folly, or on the Black Knight’s blade. While we’ve had a little before – a few Nurglings, maybe a scale or two, Lotara finding a step or a wall of blood – now we have unleashed chaos and the end of humanity.

As a note of plot in the ongoing Heresy series, it’s a big one and one that could easily have been mishandled. Perturabo commanded a battle of bloody attrition in The First Wall , making it his mission to undo the Praetorian of Terra’s impregnable defences. The cave is suddenly attacked by a large pack of smilodons, and Spear's father springs to the tribe's defense.Your heroes are monsters, who fight monsters and become monstrous, there are no quips or little jokes, recruitment ads masquerading as movies or pew pew special effects and in-jokes that can truly distract from that reality.
