Brian I meant to ask you if The Stand is going the be the complete uncut edition or the edited edition. I hope it will be the uncut edition. I can't remember if it was ever mentioned.

My guess would be the uncut version since that is Steve's preferred version, but I have no files yet. We'll post more information next year when it's a wee bit closer to publication.

FWIW I have always felt that the uncut version flowed better than the first "cut" version. IMHO

I too agree that the uncut version is the better of the two books, reading quality wise... However, in the spirit of this project, a true set of the Doubleday books should include a cut copy of The Stand. So that's what I'd prefer, though I'm not holding my breath. I think it highly unlikely that Sai King would go for a reprint of the hacked version.

It just occurred to me that it would be pretty cool (IMO) to have the original artists create a new interpretation of the original cover art.

Whoa, that is a cool idea. They could be included as the frontspiece or something since there is already new cover art. I wonder if they are even all still alive...

The first rule of CD club is to not talk about CD club.

Ha! If anyone has any questions, please send me a Private Message since it's pretty limited in scope and not for the general public. Thanks!

Best,

Given the current quantities sold, I can't promise that any retailer outside of our usual indies will get this title. We very well may send 100 or so copies to a book distributor we have a good relationship with -- to try to help keep that relationship good because we take a lot of heat on these King books where they want 5,000 to 10,000 copies and we have to say "sorry" -- but if we do send them any, we don't know where those end up in the end. Often they go to libraries because libraries don't really return books AND they pay the distributor a lower discount, so the distributor makes out better. But that doesn't mean they WON'T send copies to B&N or Amazon. I just can't promise they will. Does that make sense?

For 20 bucks I'd honestly rather give the dough to CD than B&N. Let B&N make their metric shit ton of money off trade editions and digital.

[Patrick]

I agree with Frankie. Plus, when it comes to mail order, I trust Mindy, Dan, and Brian a hell of a lot more.
