next Malus Darkblade novel

Post by Landec_falkin »

[color=red]Anyone know[/color] if there is another Malus darkblade novel in the works, on the cards or on the backburner?

you know telling the story of getting his soul back.

Maybe they'll bring it back just before they start the next army book.

I heard it was this autumn, but I couldn't say for sure. I'm looking forward to it and have been since last summer ...

Perhaps someone else may know more?

Black Library has its release schedule up until the beginning of next year, and there doesnt look like there is going to be anything Malus related for awhile.

If you can, try to dig out the old Malus Darkblade comics from decades past, Its what the novels are based off of and goes further in his story (hunting the deamon and other stuff). It also ends abruptly, but is still entertaining.

I was lucky enough to ask Mike Lee about the next novel. It was at Games Day 09, I think when the first omnibus was released. He said that he was commited to completing the Nagash series and hoped to start a new Malus book after that. He felt there was enough material from the graphic novels for at least another 5 books. I guess it's just a waiting game.

I'd hope so. I can see atleast two or three books baste off of the sixth edition fluff alone as he needs to get his sould back, and we all want to see our favorite sociopath beating the crap out of the greater daemon that took residence in him.

Given as he is incharge of the Hag, there is also dealing with his older brother.

A third might be dealing with a few other loose ends like the black ark.

Quoted from an interview which appeared on www.thepainteddragon.co.uk on the 20th of January:

Mace: Are we going to see more Malus Darkblade books?

Dan: yes ;)
