    It would be the wonderful Bible thickness of pages but I still think it would be cool.

    Looks like Scribner just released their version. This morning I recieved 19 emails or so from Scribner's newsletter regarding King.

    $8 for an ebook and $20 for a paperback?

    I'm a sucker for new editions like this so I pre-ordered them all. I'm hoping when they are released the prices will be discounted at stores and Amazon.

    I only read one of the emails, just to make sure what they said. I think one email would have sufficed. I deleted them all.

    I got the whole batch to three different addresses.

    I suspect it was an automatic trigger, and they didn't anticipate having dozens of new titles from a single author on one day.
    Author of The Road to the Dark Tower, Stephen King: A Complete Exploration of His Work, Life, and Influences and The Dark Tower Companion. Co-editor with Stephen King of the anthology Flight or Fright.

    I was wondering if anyone had the same thing happen to them. I also read one, then deleted the rest.

    It looks like they bought the Viking and Putnam books. So any Viking or Putnam books will now be Scribner/Gallery/Pocket.

    Signet did publish The Green Mile and Cycle of the Werewolf themselves. I don't see those listed on the Scribner site so they might retain some rights to those.

    Others that weren't included in this deal are the Doubleday and Philtrum press books.

    Who is this Stephen King fellow that I keep getting emails about? He seems to have written a lot of books. I wish someone would notify us each time. Btw: is there a new Star Wars movie ? Why haven't they publicized that one? A lot of people would probably want to see that and buy a lot of related movie junk.

    It also looks like an unabridged audio version of Desperation will be released in April.

    My apologies if these were already posted, but I came across some covers for the new Scribner paperbacks that I don't remember seeing before:

    Those are a lot better than the covers in the original announcement.

    Yes those are much better. I could be wrong but aside from Lisey's, I think I these are the mass market paperback size whereas the first bunch were trade paperbacks.

    Yep, Lisey's looks like a new TPB edition and the others look like MMPB. I love that CHRISTINE cover!
