The Masque of Vyle - Premium Hardback Novella up for pre-order

The Masque of Vyle by Andy Chambers is now up for pre-order on the Black Library website here (and has been for a little while!).


Here's the cover:







And the Blurb:
Even amongst the eldar, the Harlequins are a capricious, mysterious breed. When a troupe of these deadly warrior-performers discovers a dead Craftworld festering in the webway, they are determined to find the one responsible and exact punishment. Using the ancient craft of their Shadowseer, the trail of destruction leads the troupe to the Sable Marches, a fringe realm of the dark eldar. With several possible suspects of this heinous crime, the Harlequins decide to draw out the guilty one by staging the Masque of Vyle for the archons, a performance that will expose the truth and lead, fatally, to the perpetrator.


This is the latest in the "Premium Hardback Novella" format not to be confused with the limited editions. So no signature or any other fancy stuff (look here for more info about the latest Limited Edition, and here for info about the Limited Editions released to date).

I just have to say that another story featuring Harlequins is great, especially as they're the main focus of this novella is great. However, the cover art...Jesus Christ it looks horrific. It’s like they’re trying to stop people wanting to buy this! The completionist in me wants this but...we'll see.
