Ahriman: Exodus is also available and is surprisingly worth the spend. There isn't a single part of it that has been available in a general physical release prior to this; the only partial exception being
Hounds of Wrath which was a part of the
Honour of the Space Marines LE anthology available at one of the BL Weekenders.

I'll be getting both, the novella because I want to own the ENTIRE Ahriman series. Yes there will likely be an omnibus in the future, and said omnibus
could contain all the Ahriman stories and
possibly some new ones as the Salamanders omnibus did. However! With the recent trend in releases from BL and looking at previously released omnibuses in recent times, i.e the Dark Eldar omnibus, the Night Lords omnibus, etc; I do not believe that the inevitable Ahriman Omnibus will actually contain anything new, none of the recent omnibus releases have had anything new added to them whereas in years gone by, back when BL used to put out three new paperback novels a month (Minimum), each omnibus contained something new that added to the overall series it was a part of.
And since an omnibus will cost about £10-12 from Amazon, no way in gorram hell am I paying full retail price for a re-release of stuff I already own, and it would be taking up space that could be given to books that I don't already own, i'd rather just get the novella with the pretty boss artwork.
