Thanks. I may take you up on that.

Sweet! I've been telling everyone I know about this signing because it's great to support new authors, and Jason is such a nice guy.

(I call it a Seattle signing because no one knows where Kirkland is. Heck, I barely know where it's at because EAST SIDE. I kid.)

Last year (January in fact,) I saw on his FB that he was on his way to do a reading in Mount Vernon, so I drove up and back in the same day to meet him and get my Sub Press Wool signed. First time meeting him and I ended up being the only person there who knew who he was. There was maybe seven other people.

Hope you make it!

It was Gurley's art, in fact, that sold me on the WOOL set from Sub Press; were it not for that, I would have picked up the tpbs (it was my first Howey purchase, and, truth be told, probably my last). I'd love to have sign my volumes, and ELANOR sounds pretty intriguing...I have a soft spot for alternate realities / time travel books, and this one sounds like it has a neat familial twist on the form.

That's a big traycase....

**Joe315** · 01-27-2016 09:18 PM

Very nice. The tray case is massive. Love that they did a triple wide case for the set.

**Lauterer** · 01-28-2016 01:02 AM

Very cool...!

**carlosdetweiller** · 01-28-2016 04:54 AM

Can anyone give me an estimate of value for the UK (Century) proof of Wool? It is the one done in five separate volumes and has a yellow paper band holding the set together. Unread condition with a slight tear in the yellow band.

**Lauterer** · 01-28-2016 11:09 AM

I think its not very expensive. The yellow band gives some additional Dollars. I would suggest arround 30-50$. (without scanning the market !)

Thanks. I saw one in a bookseller's listings and it wasn't very expensive so I ordered it. I was hoping it was going to be one of those great deals but I guess not. Still it must be somewhat scarce as I can find no others currently listed in the usual online places.

**Joe315** · 02-10-2016 04:47 PM

Got my hardback of Beacon 23 today.

**Joe315** · 03-10-2016 07:37 PM

In case anyone is interested VJ Books has up for preorder signed copies of the new hardcovers of Shift, Dust, and Beacon 23.

I Paid $100 for my copy (from a boardie) just over a year ago.

If anyone have copies for sale for $30 I will buy all you have, LOL (and keep em until the movie drops)

Hugh Howey seems to have been a flavor of the moment for a lot of folks.

I am more inclined to think he has staying power.

**Lookwhoitis** · 03-10-2016 08:59 PM

If anyone needs a S/N LE Of Dust, I have a spare copy I can sell ya. Pm me.

Good news is that I finally found a (mismatched number) copy of S/N LE Wool to complete my set

How many more copies from the WOOL series do we need? It's getting to be like Joe Hill's Locke and Key. I assume these are US printings, since the only US hardcover was WOOL, while the UK had hardcovers of all three.

The first story came out in 2011 - it is time to move on already. And I personally don't think a movie is going to make the values go up on the books. The Martian prices are still fairly reasonable, and that was up for Academy Awards.

I loved the story, but I'm past it now.

**Joe315** · 03-11-2016 03:09 PM

You are correct. These are US editions.

**Lauterer** · 03-12-2016 12:51 AM

I do not see any new book at VJ, these are all old editions!!

OK guys.... I loved Wool and just blew right through it, but I'm having a hard time staying interested through the first 1/3 of Shift. In fact, I've put it down to read another book. Does the series pick up, or does it fizzle after Wool? Shift just hasn't hooked me like the first book did.

Shift isn't as good as Wool. I had trouble as well getting into it. I thought Dust was much better.

**terrier91** · 03-27-2016 09:20 AM

Thanks. I was hoping it would get better.

**Fp3csu** · 04-10-2016 03:32 PM

Need to sell this beauty to fund a ridiculous purchase. Shoot me a message if you're interested.

These are letter V.

Thanks,
Travis

**Tommy** · 04-23-2016 08:35 AM

I have a set of the Sub Press Limiteds of Wool, Shift and Dust. PC copies that came from Howey himself. They were already signed but he signed them again and stamped each one. They are unread but the dust jackets are less than perfect. SOLD
