So far, I have ordered the slipcased first trade edition. Wondering what the deal is on a S/L?


Also, this time will the slipcase and book arrive at the same time as the non-slipcased editions? I have to admit, I love the CD slipcases, but hate having to wait months for the slipcases to arrive. Just a small peeve though. They are certainly worth the wait in the end.

Spoiler:

It's just that I suffer the antici............................................ .................................................. .................................................. ..pation!!! lol

I can't say much of anything about a S/L. However I can say that we set up to handle the slipcases differently for this one. The books and slipcases will be shipped separately so no one will have to wait for the slipcase to read the book.

Oh, not complaining, but I thought that maybe cause you guys were involved in the publishing that the slipcases and books would arrive at the same time. FWIW, I buy from CD for "Collecting copies". My reader I will likely get elsewhere. Just FYI. Needless to say, I love what you guys are doing!!!!

Unfortunately for this project it would probably delay the release of the book, which is something we can't do, and we don't want to hold people up from being able to read their books, so we set up the product a bit differently so if necessary we'll be able to ship them separately. I don't really know the details, just the logistics of the situation.

It's cool, I get it. I assumed and you know what happens when folks do that!!! lol lol FWIW, if it matters, you can ship mine all at once. Very cool item in any case and brought to you by your King collecting buddies at CEMETERY DANCE!!!!!!

I know
All King books are special but can i gauge opinions, about the new book.

From a collectors point of view is this a special book as it it based in the castle rock world?

I'm really interested to visit again but wondered how others felt about it?

Cheers

[webstar1000]

CD is just awesome.. period.

Personally I think it's pretty special as a great cast of characters have come out of Castle Rock and we thought the book(pun fully intended)closed on this particular slice of Maine. I think for King to make a welcome return there will bring about a great story and I can't wait to read it!
As far as the collecting side of things I imagine this would be desirable because of the above mentioned things but also because, if rumors are true, he may be cutting back on the S/L game so who knows how many more he will do in the future? And I believe a new King book whether it be trade or signed is always desirable and even the trade edition is rather limited.

Agreed. Also the limitation on this edition is quite low compared to other s/l.

This is a dumb question at this point, but how do we enter the lottery for the LRB limited and lettered?

Not speaking for Brian, CD or LRB, but IIRC, details will be coming soon.

I came back to ask this too. Any clue as to when we can anticipate all this?

Within the next week. I'll be back with more details soon, hopefully. (By "soon" I mean tomorrow... hopefully)

So I have totally been logging into the site every hour for the last 2 days waiting for this. I am amazed no one at work has caught on yet lol

Oh I definitely was caught by someone, or some program at any rate. Because the municipal government of City of Winnipeg has definitely banned my access to the DT.org site.

Ha I guess that's the joys of working from home and using my own computer rather than the company offered one is they cannot track me

Thank you, food for thought. I have missed Castle Rock. Given the outline of the story I hope it has the feel I remember.

Thx

Whilst looking at the news about Gwendy on the cd site, I notice they also announced a s/l of interview with the vampire.. and I also noticed it was already sold out:-(

I don't suppose anyone picked up an extra?
Or if CD know if any were put aside for PS publishing to sell (as I am in the UK!).

Yea that one sold out way faster than we expected. So fast I wasn't even able to reserve any copies for our retailers.

Thanks for reminding me of that one. I've had it on order since last May I believe. Really looking forward to it!

[Merlin1958]

"Sleeping Beauties". Now, will CD be offering a slipcased collectors copy? Inquiring minds wish to know!!

[Beverly Marsh]

I guess with the lottery and others mentioning it, it's okay to say that I was able to get a Gwendy's S/L!
Apparently I had forgotten that I ordered the Blatty Scripts so when the email showed up I was pretty excited.
I am sure the final product will be beautifully designed. Can't wait!
Thanks yet again to the CD crew.
Looking forward to seeing who else on here got one. I know ya'll are out there

[cryptkeeper]

Wow, good for all of you. Maybe I'll get lucky with the drawing. If not, life will go on.

Congrats! I'm super excited to see the final design, CD hasn't disappointed me yet!

[Cwalker]

Well, since people are starting to spill the beans....
I was able to get a Gwendys S/L as well.
Turns out I will not be getting anything for the next 3 Christmases and next 4 birthdays though.
It's a fair trade.

[Theli]

I also am pleased to say that I snagged a copy! Very excited about this edition, it sounds tremendous!

[Br!an]

I got one!
