Btw, do we know WHAT TIME tomorrow it will be offered for sale? For the those of us on the West Coast, it means being ready three hours earlier than the East Coast…just wondering how early tomorrow I should be in front of my computer...?

This will be announced tomorrow and then there is generally a couple of day to handle presales before it goes on sale to the general public.. so you shouldn't have to be chained to your computer tomorrow.

I’m wondering if this isn’t Pet Sematary due to the stony nature of the video. Unless that is significant in The Road.

Oh jesus Brian, don't DO that to me! I had lost all shreds of hope assuming it was The Road until you said this!
I'm still thinking Road but you're killing me!

My assumption is that it’s the broken and charred pavement of the road that they walk upon on their journey.

Well, Lori, I reckon Ron just crushed your dreams with all the whole under maintained road bit. I can rest easier knowing I have a parking spot on said road (track). Not so much if it were a King book.

Yeah your right.... owners of Rosemary should get first right. If this is the Road... I bet there won’t be many copies left for public sale!

I agree with a few others - Blood Meridian is considered McCarthy's masterpiece. If one were to pick a McCarthy to give the treatment, that would be the sweet spot for me (especially if it would mean McCarthy would potentially sign)...

[Dr. Dawg]

I would be thrilled with the Road. I recently read it, and I thought it was great. Bleak, but great. Looks like I'll have to check out Blood Meridian next!

Checked and responded.

Thanks Paul

[MikeDuke]

Little over two hours!!!!

waiting patiently but still excited .

[MikeDuke]

WOW. They both look outstanding. That engraving on the numbered looks awesome. Can't wait for this one either. The lettered looks pretty cool as well. I have never seen binding like that for the lettered. And I am sure that will have some heft since it is slate.

BEAUTIFUL BOOKS PAUL... I CANNOT WAIT.

[Brian861]

Very reasonable prices as well. Congrats on another one, Paul!

[swintek]

These look like another beautiful production from Paul. I fully applaud the Coptic Binding on the lettered- which looks stunning. Nice to see someone pushing the Book Arts boundaries in our little pond. They look killer, Paul!

[lotuz]

Yep this one was definitely the most apt:

[firemonkey66]

That is an awesome binding on the lettered! And with the slate, even cooler

[Cook]

Very nice indeed, love the artwork.
Obviously this will be another artistic masterpiece.
Congratulations Paul !!

[Garrell]

Hoping to get a Limited one

[Munnecom]

Congratulations Paul, another winner!

I l-o-v-e that sample illustration by Pancoast.

[jeffingoff]

Happy to carry the fire on April 13.

Also, I can't wait to see the cover art for the AGE or Rosemary's Baby.

Lot going on in Paul's world!

Hey Paul or Becca, did you guys try to get McCarthy to sign the edition? If so, what did he say (in addition to the obvious no)? Like did he reference his son or express any regret or anything? Just curious

[Hunchback Jack]

I couldn't be more excited about this release. This is a fine book, and I would love to own a limited edition of it. The Suntup editions look pretty great.

[Brian861]

Doubtful, but I'm really hoping to be able to swing a lettered this time.

Yes we did ask for his signature but even though McCarthy approved of our edition, he did not want to sign and we had to respect his wishes. There was no further information provided, however it makes sense knowing what we know about the personal nature of the story and the signed copies for his son. For Paul, even though he would have liked for it to be signed, he felt so strongly about the novel and that it really deserved a special limited edition treatment.

I like the use of the Coptic binding for the lettered edition.
A friend of mine frequently makes books using that method, but this is the first time that I've seen a limited employ it.
