I have a $100 CD Gift Certificate sitting around. I wonder if I should just use it on this. I've never read the book before, but it sounds like a nice copy of the book

I think that is a GREAT idea!!!!!!

Wasn't there a limited edition of The Exorcist released within the last year or so? I thought I've seen photos around here. Or am I thinking of some other book?

In any case, I ordered a copy of this 40th Anniversary revised Edition. I don't own any edition at all and the price on this S/L seemed reasonable.

We released The Exorcist / Legion combo (can't remember if it was earlier this year or late last year). I asked the same question when I found out about the project, but then Brian told me about how Blatty wanted to write the revisions and what not.

Thanks, Brian. Having never read the original, I have no attachment to it, so I'm totally open to his revised version. I look forward to its publication.

Personally I loved the original too much to want revisions. I felt the same about the gunslinger and still do. I felt there was no value in revising. I liked the revised, but i LOVED the original. I'm pretty sure i feel the same about this one. I think he should have wrote a new story instead of messing with this one. In fact i think i'll pretend that's what happened. I do however look forward to seeing pics of the finished production. Y'all do some incredibly nice books.

I'm not Brian, but no problem anyways...

FWIW The Exorcist is one truly scary and disturbing book, at least when it was originally released, and is a "must read". Certainly with new material and a new character you probably cannot go wrong reading this book.

I just received the standard email notification about CD's Exorcist release, after receiving the early notification yesterday.

I could have sworn that when I went to the info page from the link in the first email that both editions were being done with a traycase?????
I see now that only the lettered edition is being done with a tray case.

Was I just being an idiot who can't read? or was this a bit of a slip up on the website??? Did anyone else notice this? I could be totally wrong however ;-)

Yeah, I saw that the limited was indeed listed as traycased as well, Must have been a mistake that they corrected right away. This edition feels a little...."Again?. Really?" to me on the heels of the CD edition less than a year ago, but I guess it's selling out, so...

Thank you! I thought I was going nuts.

Hey CD - Any chance you can hook me up with a traycase for my limited???

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

I ordered the S/L version also. Really wanted that lettered edition but just don't have the funds right now. Oh well...

Nope, you're right: the text on the website and in the notes was correct, but the little description on the ordering button was wrong -- sometimes the site autofills those based on the last thing you entered and I missed it in this case and no one else caught it for about an hour. But the Limited Edition has always been planned to be slipcased.

I just received an update on the Knowing Darkness I ordered through CD recently, when they had their 50% sale. They oversold by a handful of copies, and todays email has confirmed that they have sourced some replacement copies from the publisher, and some of them may even be brand new.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you tyo CD for this, as many other publishers would have just cancelled the orders. The price was awesome enough to begin with, let alone now with the chance of receiving un-dinged copies.

Thanks guys!

As far as I'm aware nothing has changed for the release of IT and we're still on schedule. Brian probably has a better idea about that than I do though.

Edit: Looks like we where posting at the same time.

Ha! Yep, right on schedule. The bluelines have been approved and the F&G should be arriving next week. The slipcase and traycase prototypes looked good, just waiting on the stamping sample for approval. So we're right in track to ship in December!

Thank you for your patience! I was told today the rest of the copies are being packed to ship to us next week, so we should be filling the orders right after that!
