News - January 2003
30th January 2003 - Thanks to Mike Ball across
at the Black Library, I can now reveal the cover to the new Daemonslayer
in all it's glory! It'll be out in July along with Dragonslayer. Click
the cover for a larger picture.
27th January 2003 - The new Ragnar's Claw Quiz
is now online. Check it out here!
26th January 2003 - As some of you may have
noticed, the site is on a bit of a Go-Slow at the moment and I can only
apologise. I've contacted the hosting company and it seems *their*
hosting company has a few connectivity problems though they are trying
their best to resolve them. Please try and bear with us until then, and
if the pages don't load up straight-away, please try again later. It's
really very frustrating but there's not a blind thing I can do about it,
unfortunately....
20th January 2003 - Okay,
I must offer my thanks to my Polish friend, Paweł Zawal once again
- this time for the cover of the Polish version of Laughter
of Dark Gods. Once again, it is different and unless I'm
much mistaken, I think this may be a different edition to the new one
released by the Black Library last year. I think I shall have to
investigate further...
20th January 2003 - Good news for the Spanish
fans of the Gotrek & Felix saga - the sixth installment, Matavampiros
(Vampireslayer) is out now apparently! Many thanks to Luis Arlegui for
the update.
17th January 2003 - I
just want to say thanks to Paweł Zawal in Poland for sending me the
scans of the Polish Daemonslayer
and Dragonslayer
covers. It's also presented me with a bit of a puzzle since the
Daemonslayer one is different to every other version I've seen...and
believe me, I've seen a few! Have a look for yourself - it looks like a
John Gravato cover to my untrained eye but then I could be wrong. Anyone
shed a little light...?
15th January 2003 - The
winners have now been drawn for the first two in our corrections
competition and I'm delighted to inform you that Kerry Reeve won the
Trollslayer comp while Suryan Chandrasegaran was the lucky winner of our
Skavenslayer prize. I just want to say thanks very much to all the
eagle-eyed readers who entered - it's very much appreciated and I'm only
sorry everyone couldn't be a winner!
Anyway, if you weren't a winner this time around, you
can always try your luck with the next books - the deadlines are the 1st
of April for Daemon/Dragonslayer and the 1st of June for the final two
books.
13th January 2003 - Tonight's the night!
Corrections for the first two books, Trollslayer & Skavenslayer
should be in to comp@trollslayer.net
by midnight tonight (GMT) if you want to be in with a chance of
winning autographed copies of them! Good luck!
6th January 2003 - This is a reminder to let you
know that the first deadline in our Black Library competition is only a
week away - the 13th! If you want to be in with a chance of
winning a signed copy of either Trollslayer or Skavenslayer plus a
signed Giantslayer, please get your corrections in to me before then.
Even if it's only one correction per book- that still qualifies you for
entry into the draw so it's worth a bash, surely? All the relevant
details can be found in the box above and good luck if you decide to
enter!
5th January 2003 - Sadly, due to his other
writing commitments, Bill has had to suspend his monthly column for the
time being. I had hoped to get it back on track this month but given his
rather hectic schedule for the next month or so, it was not to be.
Anyway, normal service will be resumed just as soon as possible.
5th January 2003 - Okay, a little birdie has
just told me that my gloat about my exclusive Gotrek watch may have been
a little premature. It seems that some of you may well be able to get
your hands on these very limited editions, as a couple will be given
away as competition prizes in the G&F special issue of Inferno! For
those who don't know, it's due out on the 28th of April and you can get
a preview of the fantastic Greg Staples cover here.
Adrian Smith Gotrek Watch
3rd January 2003 - Well,
I got a very nice surprise in the post this morning - the above watch
which was a late Christmas pressie from the head of the Black Library
himself, Mr Marc Gascoigne! Very nice isn't it? Pity the scan doesn't
really do it justice....
Anyway, you want one? Sadly, you can't have one. There
were only fifty of them made in total and apparently they were
especially designed to be given away as exclusive Black Library gifts.
Shame really....
Still, I'm feeling generous so you can all look at
mine....just a quick glimpse, mind you and no touching either!
1st January 2003 - We
would just like to wish everyone a very Happy New Year - here's hoping
it's a good one, folks!
