    Awesome!

    I don't think so. The ordering page says it is for the first reprint in July.
    I don't have much experience with Folio, so it could be like Easton Press where there isn't really any way to identify later printings.

    I will say that I really prefer Folio over Easton. They aren't leather, but they always have a lot of cool illustrations both in the books and on the slipcases.

    I emailed and they said there were no 1st prints left. I might take a chance... it would be nice to have a 1st for $125.

    Really nice new additions. That LOGAN'S RUN is great.
    I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

    I got a response from Folio... the next run of books will state 'First edition, second printing'.

    Yeah, I think I may have to get that Dune now too!
    Are there plans for Folio to do more from the Dune series?

    I seem to remember hearing rumors of all 6 a while back, but nothing was every confirmed. I'm hoping they do, of course.

    Folio did send out a survey a couple of months back asking about Dune Messiah and Children of Dune.
    Hopefully those two will happen.

    I'm also excited to see Centipede Press giving all 6 books a serious look. Fingers crossed they publish the set.

    I was talking to Jerad a few days ago actually. He was wondering what would make it a comprehensive set if he went forth on the 6 dune books.

    I just bought a bunch of Foilio books but held off on the Dune because I didn't think they were doing the whole set and I really want a whole set rather than just Dune. Really hoping Jerad decides to do all of them. I told him it would be cool if he did the 6 novels all in one slipcase like what he is doing for the Complete Kane. Just put a very pictorial cover on the case maybe the world map or something; would look really good. Also mentioned he should do it both signed by the artist and not signed for those that love the quality but do not care to pay a $100+ extra for a signature not from the author.

    Wow, it's been 4 years since I added anything to this thread!
    Though I don't collect much anymore, I did add several books from both King and others in that time. I'll post more of the more recent King additions once I decide what I want to purge.

    About the only books I really still hunt for are the various editions of Dune on my want list.
    I added three this year. Think of them as appetizers until the CP version is released.


    This one was just published last week and is the new "Deluxe Edition" from Penguin.

    It's actually pretty nice for a trade edition. All three sides of the text block are edge stained, debossed front and back cover, new endpaper artwork, new map, new cover art and the interior of the dust jacket also has a new illustration.
    The copyright page lists new interior art, I just didn't find it yet on a quick scan.








    Earlier in the year I also picked up the Books-a-million exclusive edition.
    Nothing too fancy, cloth bound, with hot stamped cover art.



    And finally, after looking for 5 years, I found a copy of the ABA limited edition from 1984.

    Just added a couple of rare Dune proofs to my collection.
    I've never seen any others like these even come up for sale.

    First up is God Emperor of Dune, signed by Frank Herbert.



    The pages are all printed two up with a removable plastic binding strip holding the stack together.

    I also acquired the same style proof for Heretics of Dune.

    This one isn't signed, but it contains extensive hand written notes and corrections from the copy editor on nearly every page.
