Era of Ruin (Special Edition)
The Siege of Terra is over, the Imperial Palace is in ruins, and Horus is dead. Those that are left behind to pick through the ruins find themselves in a time that promises new beginnings, but also fresh threats for the Imperium. Era of Ruin is a collection of short stories by some of the most prominent Horus Heresy authors, featuring tales by Aaron Dembski-Bowden, Dan Abnett, Guy Haley, Chris Wraight, Nick Kyme, John French and Gav Thorpe. The special edition of this book features a leather-effect cover with a metal decoration, gilt page edges, and a burgundy ribbon bookmark, and interior illustrations.
As a guaranteed stock product, you will be able to order it from today until Wednesday the 24th December at 8am GMT. Production and delivery can take up to 180 days.
Death World (MP3)
There are few Astra Militarum regiments more iconic than the Catachan Jungle Fighters, so when a unit of these elite warriors is sent to the death world of Rogar III, it’s little surprise that they feel right at home. However, as well as dealing with invading Orks, they must do battle with the planet itself and the mysterious figures that stalk them across its deadly terrain. Steve Lyons’ thrilling Astra Militarum novel, Death World, is now available as an MP3 audiobook – perfect for blocking out the holiday chaos.**
AAA: Red Squig Slipper Socks
Squigs are an integral part of the Ork ecosystem – they eat the refuse of the Orks, and then the Orks eat the squigs! There are many forms of squig, but the most infamous are the ravenous face-biters, which the Orks use to guard their camps and attack anyone who looks at them funny.
They’re also a lovely, festive shade of crimson, which is why they make for perfect Christmas Grotmas mascots!
First up in our range of squig-themed Christmas merch is a pair of cosy slipper socks, each adorned with the grinning face of one of these loveable creatures.
They’re perfect for keeping your feet warm, whether you're exploring the Mortal Realms or bouncing into a cold kitchen in search of snacks***, and the non-slip gripping tread will help ensure you don’t take a tumble in the process.
There is no pre-order window on these, either – they’re available to order right now, but only while stocks last.****
AAA: Squig Mega Hoodie
For those of us in the northern hemisphere, the festivities also bring cold weather. When it hits, few items of clothing are more comfortable than a fleece-lined cotton hoodie, and few creatures are as beloved as squigs.
Here are those two things combined in a single glorious item of clothing.
But this is no normal hoodie! Oh, no, this is a MEGA hoodie! It’s essentially a super-soft blanket that you can wear. Emblazoned with a grinning squig face on the chest and an adorable pair of soft horns jutting from the hood, it is designed so that ‘one size fits most’ and makes an ideal gift for the Warhammer (or gigantic warm hoodie) fans in your life.***** This item is also available to order immediately, while stocks last.****
* We don’t want more protestors clogging up the Warhammer World car park!
** Disclaimer: Warhammer audiobooks are not a proven cure for the attentions of Chaos – sorry!
*** More cheese, more often!

***** Remember, a squig is for life, not just for Christmas!
