JohnThere are lots more things coming your way, not least Glenn Chadbourne’s remarkable artwork for our 40th Anniversary edition of Stephen King’s Carrie: I thought of letting you take a peek but then thought we should wait and clear the decks of 2013 titles before we look too deeply into the smorgasbord that is PS’s 2014. You’ll just have to be patient. Again!
See you next week. Look after each other . . . and happy reading.
I think I'm mainly interested in them because several of these will be books that have not previously had any sort of limited edition.
Sure they aren't first editions, but I like that fact that they are at least artist/gift editions.
Brian Freeman mentioned King turning down Carrie S/Ls many times in the past, so this may be the only limited version we ever get. The challenge then will be getting to one of King's appearances to get it signed.

Looks like it will be an expensive year then :p

Oh, I like it!!! I think the whole "Rat" thing took on a life of it's own with regard to the FD/NS editions (which culminated with the HF "Ultimate Rat" auction). Not unlike the whole TMSG phenomena of '11/12!!!! They're an "Internet thang (and perhaps a TDT.Org)!!! LOL LOL LOL

From the newsletter :
We're still happy to take your order for PS Publishing's Anniversary Editions of Christine and Pet Sematary. The former book is already done, while PS waits for the slipcases before shipping commences. Pet Sematary is slated to follow closely thereafter. We're offering matched numbers of the two books, and of further Stephen King Anniversary Editions that PS has lined up for next year. (We'll post more news on the latter as soon as we're given permission.)

We didnt really hear any promo for it, did we?

Pete Crowther reports that "Pet Sematary is about to hit the printers (poor souls!). This will probably be out around the same time as Christine which—with the new full-colour slipcases and full colour print throughout—has been a bit of a baptism of fire for all of us."
Author of The Road to the Dark Tower, Stephen King: A Complete Exploration of His Work, Life, and Influences and The Dark Tower Companion. Co-editor with Stephen King of the anthology Flight or Fright.
I'm keen on picking these editions up at some point, but am hoping they will be cheaper then issue price after their release.
I suppose we are in for a parade of these type editions for years to come, as the respective "Anniversaries" come up. Not really sure how I feel about this trend, but man am I glad I have the 1/1's!!! BTW, it is not so much that they are re-printing them, but that they are, apparently, just going to do this type thing for EVERY King title. I buy LOTR anniversary editions from time to time, but it is, argumentatively, one of the top ten novels of all time. I don't think I would consider every King title a member of the "Top Ten" list even though I am a huge fan. Anyone know what I mean?
Just musing I suppose.

I totally agree merlin. The only thing that would tempt me to purchase some of anniversary editions would be a miniscule print run....500 print run tops. Otherwise, it truely becomes just another snazzy reprint.

I had originally ordered these, but after thinking about it decided to cancel them. Could use that $200 for something better. Plus i have a feeling that these will be available much cheaper later on, don't see them really ever having any real value. All of them bought will be pretty much unread and stored on a shelf, finding one in great condition later on will be easy.
Plus with them announcing all these other anniversary editions coming out, they are nothing special.
God why the crap font? why?? It could be sooo much better with a different font
Mark Geyer has done six original illustrations for this book (Pet Sematary). I have seen one of them and it is quite good. I am looking forward to seeing the rest when the book is published next month.
