Month to month here as well. I'm looking forward to checking it out. Not sure how long I'll stick with it but it will be fun to try. I wonder if you cancel if you can come back later, like say if they do a Hill box or another King?
Their Facebook page released the alternate dust jacket design. Still undecided if I'm going to order it.
It is "approved" by CD so it is a legitimate dust jacket varient. It's not like the Overlook jackets that are made up and copied as some kind of limited collectible.
It's like the different Insomnia or Under the Dome color variations, only this varient is a whole lot less quantity. And, since they should be on first printings, that will
be even more collectible. Look at how collectibe the Holdorf covers are and they are on 25th printings or higher.
I dig it. In fact I'm even more intrigued about the novella now. Can't wait to read it. I realize I should probably read some Chizmar first to get a feel for how he writes.

I like how it kinda looks like there is a skull sitting on top of the Castle Rock sign. Anyone else see it?

I can't place an order. It delivers an error.

I had a few questions come to mind today. Is the copy of Gwendy's that will be in the Nocturnal Reader's box with the variant DJ also going to include the original DJ as well and is it the same physical edition as the 'normal' first printings; ie Is it going to fit in the slipcover that CD will be making? If it DOESN'T include the normal DJ, is the normal DJ available for order?

I contacted the tech support because I'm still unable to purchase it. If it ends up with no contact, can anyone buy an extra for me? I can pay via Paypal.
Thanks!

I really dig the variant cover art and I missed the skull completely! Nice find Tommy.
Also never even thought to get a slipcase for this. Another good catch! Are they selling separate slipcases for Gwendy's? I haven't seen them available yet other than with the book purchase....
I'll be interested to see what else comes in this box, from looking at past ones they send some pretty cool stuff.
We haven't listed the GWENDY slipcase separately on the site yet, but I'll bump up the order here real quick before the slipcase maker gets rolling because I didn't even think about folks wanting cases for the variant DJ, which is a great point.
The books are exactly the same, only the DJ is different (and the DJ was printed by the same plant on the same stock, etc), so the slipcase should fit exactly the same.

So, this might be a silly question, but when I signed up for the Nocturnal Reader's box (via the page with the gigantic picture of Stephen King on it), I assumed I was signing up for the June Box (i.e., the one with Gwendy's Button Box in it). I've now started receiving emails from them about the May box, but they have not responded to my questions. Am I the one who assumed that if I signed up for the "month-to-month" plan that I would be starting with the SK box? Given that they sent out an email about how they are having a hard time handling the May shipments, I imagine that they were bombarded with orders that they were ill-equipped to handle.
Looking at my account it shows that I signed up on May 1st and my renewal is June 15th. So I read that as I am getting June and not May. The email talked about renewals coming up on the 15th and 20th and I would guess those are for people that received May and are now paying for their June Subscription. I am not 100% my assumptions are correct, hopefully they are.

Wanted: Human skin edition of The Book of the Dead. Will accept PC copy.
So has anyone cancelled their membership yet/been charged for another month yet? I am still really confused by their schedule.
I didn't cancel it but suspended it for one month. I'll wait until the news on the next box and if I like it I'll reactivate it.
