    Novel about Cypher?

    Are there any novels that have Cypher in them as a character or has anyone heard any rumors concerning a book about him in the near future?

    It's kind of a spoiler even to say this because his appearance is part of the twist at the end, but there's no other way to answer the question, so: Angels of Darkness is the only one I'm aware of, and even then he's not exactly a big part; unless you count the HH Dark Angels books, but I don't think they're really what you're looking for. (Plus they suck, unlike AoD which is surprisingly excellent).

    Re: Novel about Cypher?

    Gav is working on a series called the Legacy of Caliban. The first novel, Ravenwing will be out in Jan next year IIRC. It is going to be quite a bit about the Fallen but expect it to be somewhat like Legion of the Damned. There has been a suggestion that Cypher will feature in it but he's more likely to be as he was presented in Angels of Darkness.

    By that do you mean that they should never even cameo it?? Because from everything Gav has said, and as I pointed out, Cypher is not going to be a major on-page character in the Legacy of Caliban trilogy.

    read "rise of the tau", that has cypher in it, its fan-fiction but still worth reading.

    He has a few cameos in Descent of Angels, sort of. It at least gives some information about him and his original role in I Legion.
