Death and Duty (Warhammer 40,000) Amazon.com: Death and Duty (Warhammer 40,000): 9781836091998: Lyons, Steve: Books

Black Library's new anthology "Death and Duty" closes with my new short story, "Worm of Valhalla", which is about a reluctant tank commander who'd rather be growing tomatoes. You can preorder paperback and ebook, and an audiobook will be out in about a month. www.amazon.com/Death-Duty-W...

For Halloween (and LGBTQ History Month), a weird tale of a Clive Barker typo. 🧵

This is some excellent wisdom.

@squintywitch.bsky.social Did a great 40K novel that I can’t read again because she made it “heart-rending” 🫣😭😭😭😭😭

I hope you enjoy it! I love the cover, it's so tactile.

O god is it August already?

Allan Ahlberg, beloved children's author, dies aged 87 Working first with his wife Janet, and later with illustrators including Raymond Briggs and Bruce Ingman, he wrote more than 150 books

Oh this is sad. Each Peach Pear Plum still brings me enormous joy - when I worked in a bookshop I'd pause to reread it all the time www.theguardian.com/books/2025/j...

If loving autumn, cats, pastries, cobblestone streets, Scottish Highlands cottages, bookstores, libraries, Agatha Christie, fog-laden forests, and Oxford commas is wrong, why would I ever want to be right?

In case any of my fellow creatives also needed this reminder:

We're delighted to announce the #KelpiesPrize 2025 shortlist! Congratulations to:

Isopods

Writer Gremlin Bingo, nine squares: 1. Never stretch 2. Refuse to leave writing cave 3. Things growing in uncleaned house 4. No screen breaks 5. Sittin like a scrimp 6. Only eat snaccs 7. Forget how to talk to humans 8. Lost in research hole 9. No sleep till deadline

Taking a break on the to-do list today as I descend into the mossy, odiferous depths of gremlinhood

Shout out to the gang, the best colleagues anyone could wish for in the word mines :)

Delighted to share the Saturday pre-order stage with Robbie and Denny. If you missed DOMINION GENESIS in hardback and fancy getting your hands on the paperback (which shares its larger format's truly exceptional cover), they head over to warhammer.com next weekend!

Action-packed this week! Folks mentioned include:
