The interior illustrations are magnificent!!! The cover some how looks a little better in person, but still the interior are superior to the exterior.

Bob, I never got a shipping email either and it made it here just fine!!

Dont talk about cover ! Please tell me your opinion about the story ! Is it awesome as the other books in series ?

**biomieg** · 03-01-2012 05:39 AM

I loved the story.

**George at C-Springs** · 03-01-2012 09:46 AM

I got charged two weeks ago and got the e-mail, still no book. But I'm a "W" though, so probably end of the line. :-(

**frik** · 03-01-2012 11:52 AM

No charge - no e-mail - no book...yet...

Sadly, I will not read it until the S&S release in April. It's a collectible AE!!! However, I'm dying to!!!

**Jimimck** · 03-01-2012 10:49 PM

I was thinking about not reading my AE(whenever it arrives) but have decided that I'm going to read it as I like the idea of it making a new DT story that little bit more special....

I don't have mine yet but I'm debating the exact same thing...to read or not to read.

**divemaster** · 03-02-2012 05:34 AM

I'm getting the S/L and you can be damned sure I'm gonna read it!

**AKC** · 03-02-2012 06:32 AM

I'm a "W".

No Charge Yet, No Email yet but I know that Karen is WAY BUSY! I'm not worried!

I've got # 32 S/L and an Artist Edition coming my way!!!!

Like I said before, I always read my Grant books. I don't understand collecting for collecting's sake.

**Robert Fulman** · 03-02-2012 09:09 AM

Especially in this case, where the only option to reading the book is twiddling your thumbs for two months until a cheaper version comes along.

**Ben Staad** · 03-02-2012 09:46 AM

Hooray! My wife just sent me a text stating I received a package from Grant...I think I'm going to start reading this tonight.

**jhanic** · 03-02-2012 09:51 AM

If you start reading it tonight, you may not get to sleep!

Good decision pal!

**pixiedark76** · 03-02-2012 03:41 PM

How many AE editions are left? Do I still have time to place an order?

It would appear so:

There were 5000 copies of the AE printed, so I think it will be around for a while.

John

**AKC** · 03-02-2012 06:30 PM

Has anybody mentioned the SIZE of the AE? Is it equivalent to LSOE or the DT V, VI, VII Artist Copies?

**jhanic** · 03-02-2012 07:09 PM

It's the size of the DTV, VI and VII books.

I believe since the 1960 if not earlier. We just don't like to take people's money until we are ready to give them what they are paying for. That's all.

I think that is an awesome practice.

That's okay... I am a patient guy. And I assume 1) that the AEs haven't sold out yet and 2) that you guys are shipping at a rate of a couple hundred books every day. So if I get it around the end of March/beginning of April I'm a happy camper.

**mae** · 03-03-2012 02:31 PM

It's here! Oh my god! It's so beautiful!

I'm amazed at how thick the paper is. Also, love the reptilian slipcase and matching boards of the book, not your typical cloth binding. Superb!
