BL: Advent 2017 – Day 8 “The Assassination of Gabriel Seth”
Today, the Black Library brings us an audio drama of a Chapter Master beset by enemies – can Gabriel Seth survive?
If you’ve been waiting to get caught-up on your fill of Black Library back-stories and lore then now is the time of year to jump in. Running from December 1st until December 24th, Black Library will have something to read, listen to, or just check out for all things Games Workshop. You can grab them individually or pick up the whole thing as part of the Advent Calendar Subscription.
