Unfortunately most of the stories have come from previous audio dramas. A few new ones from ADB and John French. There's also a Games Day exclusive story from last year, and one from the Horus Heresy art book.

The first story was boring. The last story tho, that one was okay tho I cant help but feel that ADB writes the same character over and over and over and over again!

Shadows of Treachery is mostly a promise BL made years ago to publish their limited stuff in one format or the other for all to read. The Dark King and the Lightning Tower started out as a limited edition novella that got turned into an audio drama.
The Prince of Crows was okay, not as "hot" as many say it to be. A pity really.

Well that's Sword of Caledor finished, and it is freakin awesome. William King has written another fantastic story featuring the Elven Heroes, and when reading from Malekith's point of view, you get to see a different side to the simple destroy Ulthuan for what happened eons ago. He actually has a somewhat noble (in a way) purpose for doing what he is doing. He's also shown to be a very fair ruler.

Still waiting on the much-loved (not really) Royal Mail to send me my copies of Pariah, the Emperor's Might and Brotherhood of the Storm. Here's hoping that one is €40,-- well spent. gonk

Sucks to hear that you still haven't received your books yet. I never liked the Royal Mail when it came to delivering books.

I know there's a few aspiring writers in here, has anyone actually tried contacting Black Library to try and get something published?

Black Library doesn't exactly work like that. Either they contact you (or your agent), or for aspiring talent, you enter one of their (themed) annual writing contests that will see your short story published in a future anthology book and if you're lucky enough, get a contract to write full novels for them.

Themed annual contests, you say? That sounds relatively promising, any further information on that, or a place I could find such?
