Cycle only remains uncollected because it's part graphic novel. But I don't care about whether it gets collected later on, I'm more interested in finding out if there is ever going to be a print version of UR.

Isn't it possible that the mass market will only get a paperback of it and it will remain a separate book like The Colorado Kid?
Maybe several years down the line when his publisher wants to make extra money with little to no extra work from King, they'll put out another novella collection and throw both this book and Colorado Kid in a mass market HC along with Throttle...
An audio version will be out next month:

At $450 for the S/L I think this is way overpriced and too rich for my blood! If it were a full sized novel then perhaps but its a novella at best and way too pricey! I'll stick with th eCD First Edition for $25.00.

Spoiler:
$450 for a tiny 120-ish page book is too pricey, IMO. Even the UTD price for the S/L was lower, and it was much more popular/anticpated.
The first edition will have to suffice in my case.
A NEW GAME BEGINS
thats a lot of money for a small novella
From SKMB:
Stephen and Cemetery Dance have made an arrangement with Scribner to make available a less expensive hardcover edition of Blockade Billy, with an on-sale date of May 25th, the same date the audiobook goes on sale. The Scribner edition will be available in all US & Canadian retail outlets. Both the Scribner book and the Simon & Schuster audiobook will feature a bonus short story ("Morality"). In the meantime, an eBook edition of Blockade Billy should go on sale through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Sony on April 20th.
WOW! Ya know, they HAD to have know about this all along! There is NO way that they can do that much that fast, so sorry.
Well, we know who wanted to make the money first!
And I know which edition I will be buying!!
Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think.
Well that's a bummer. But "Morality" should be included in King's eventual next short story collection. Already placed my order for the CD edition of Billy; if the price is low enough, I'll get the Scribner edition as well, maybe.

Margaret Emmie Mackey Catoe, you are, have been, and always will be my soulmate, and I love you.

No, it's a hardcover.
Hardcover without a dust jacket according to this page: In Praise of Paper-Over-Board
This is good news for me. As much as I love King I don't collect books for any reason other than to have a nice reader copy (preferably in hardback). Having to wait an extra month to read a baseball story doesn't bother me much.
that sounds interesting...I will have to pick up a copy just to check it out.
Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think.
As I said elsewhere, I'll pick up a Scribner edition for my reading copy and keep the CD one as part of my collection.

I just got an email from Mindy at CD stating that the Scribner edition will NOT include any of the interior illustrations.
John
I wonder about the ebookbthat will go on sale the 20th. Based on the CD edition?
