Wow. I can not believe this book. Both ed look insanely good. I will so happy to add this to my growing Suntup collection. And getting Jordan Peel to sign is really cool also. I am just so excited now.

By the way, this was another easter egg on the teaser video. The scene that is panning across the tiles, it spells out "J PEELE". It's between 00:12 - 00:14 on the trailer video.

But I digress.....that book :lovely:
I don't know if I'll end up with one but for those that do, congratulations!

Huge congrats, Paul on your latest accomplishment. I listened to this novel for the first time last year and loved it. Very deserving of the Suntup treatment. And just as excited to have Peele sign it. My son brought him to my attention years ago and I've been a huge fan every since.

The lettered is beyond cool...I have the Easton HC that's signed by Levin so I'll need to step aside and let others have at both editions, but what an outstanding production for those who need a deluxe copy. Great, too, to see Levin's name pop up in the collecting community...hopefully it'll get folks to check out some of his other books as well, as his body of work is well worth reading.

I have two questions about the numbered edition.

First, what is the crucifix on the front made of? Is it stamped on in silver foil?

Second, the description says the slipcase will also be foil stamped, but the images only show a blank black surface. Will there be anything on the front of the slipcase, or will there only be printing on the spine?

I like to display these kinds of books with the front facing out, that’s why I ask.

Thank you for that answer. Like with the axe and the keyhole (sorry, escutcheon), I like the simplicity of the design.

How about a foil-stamped, blood diamond-encrusted, glow-in-the-dark bassinet with a battery-powered speaker that emits the sound of a crying baby every hour for the front of this slipcase? I have other ideas if you’re interested...

I really like the addition of Jordan Peele to this project!

Very cool to have someone who was inspired by this work do the intro, and even cooler that the person is an Academy Award winner who recently made a fantastic entrance into the horror genre.

Also, in a fortunate coincidence, as a Christmas gift (that actually just arrived earlier this week) my wife bought me a wood-backed print of the Polish movie poster designed by Andrzej Pagowski:

DO NOT VOTE FOR ME, EVER.

Get Out is on the long list of movies I really need/want to see. I'll get to it someday.

I also understand that this is a place for opinions. And everyone should be able to say what they think. There are just ways to go about it without tearing down someone's creative project. I'd really like to know what anyone has against Jordan Peele's signature. I mean, it's not like he's going to get Levin's signature. So he was able to score an acclaimed director's signature and intro. Sounds like a win to me. And I don't know if Peele has a connection (personal or professional) to the work, but I'd be happy to find out. And the book looks stunning. Why gripe?

I'd really like to know what anyone has against Jordan Peele's signature. I mean, it's not like he's going to get Levin's signature. So he was able to score an acclaimed director's signature and intro. Sounds like a win to me. And I don't know if Peele has a connection (personal or professional) to the work, but I'd be happy to find out. And the book looks stunning. Why gripe?

I promise not to vote for you!

My wife loved Get Out, I thought it was just OK. I consider it a dark comedy and not a horror movie.

I believe Mr. Peele stated that Rosemary's Baby heavily influenced Get Out. I actually would be very interested in reading his contribution to this book as things like that interest me.

Jeffingoff and Brian,

No one here has been disrespectful. I think people are actually holding back any negative opinions they might have because Paul posts here and is a long-time member of the board. Have you seen how people on here really dig into subterranean, CD, PS etc? Or Chadbourne? Shit gets wild and some of those people do post here.

Get Out was a fine film but Peele's signature doesn't even register as a selling point here.

"Naysayers and the like." LOL.

I haven't bought anything from Suntup yet and don't know when I will, but between seeing pictures, watching the videos, seeing all the stuff online (I just perused the RB prospectus), man, I am getting high off the fumes big time.

Wow!!!! A book that rocks like a cradle with a cross and signature from Comedy Central for a mere $4k? Can't wait!!!!!!

...actually a criticism?

I thought Merlin was being funny, by doing two things I considered openly ridiculous (therefore: humor):

- characterizing the Peele signature as a major driver of the $4k price tag

- characterizing Peele as merely some guy "from Comedy Central"

Perhaps others see criticism where it isn't, or perhaps Merlin was serious and I was/am too clueless to see it - at this point, I can't tell.

This is a good point. For the record, I am always open to constructive feedback and/or critique. My feeling is this: I don’t just make these books for me. I make them for you. When we receive feedback, be it positive or negative, I do my best to make a note of it and apply it to future releases. People should not feel that they need to censor themselves because I'm a member here, etc. If anyone has something meaningful to share, you can do so here or privately by submitting the form on the Suntup contact page (or sending an email to the address provided on that page.) Every email received is read and responded to. The only thing I ask is that the feedback be constructive. If all you're up for is slinging mud, have at it. I just don't respond to that sort of thing.

Just keep on what you are doing Paul. Is it sad that the prices are so high for lettered books that are not signed by the author. I don't know. I don't (can't) make these books. I happen to like these books. If they are signed by the author or not. But I can see where people question why the price is so high for u signed books. But I have seen other unsigned lettered books that are priced high as well so I don't get the issue here. Maybe it's just me. But I am excited to get the books I ordered so far.

firemonkey66
01-18-2019, 06:55 PM
Personally, I’m unconcerned with what people think about the price and who signed it. Ira Levin is dead, so it is what it is. This book brings the climax of this classic novel to life. When that baby opens it’s eyes for the first time, Christ what a crescendo to a great story. It’s the construction of the book and the bassinet that makes the book expensive, not Jordan Peele’s new introduction and signature, that’s just a bonus. If a lettered regulators without a signed check went up for sale, it would fetch at least 4K, and that production is far less imaginative and not even close to being as good of a story. The design of this book is exciting, not just because it is cool as hell, and an incredible homage to one of the best horror books of all time, but because it foreshadows great things to come from Suntup. Just imagine Suntup publishing YOUR favorite book and pulling out all the stops like with this one!

Well said, Mike.

Personally, I'm a Suntup customer for life. I'm fortunate enough to be on both King and non-King numbered tracks, and since receiving Misery last August, buying the next Suntup release has become a no-brainer. The creativity, care and craftsmanship that Paul and team put into each release has elevated the whole concept of a limited edition for me. I understand that people may balk at the price tag if there's no author's signature, or if a signed trade copy can be purchased for much less. But for me, it's all about the book itself, as art and craft.

Just to clear up a few things. First, my post was sarcastic and intended to illicit a chuckle or two. Second, I like, Paul as a person and generally think he is doing some wonderful things with, Suntup. I just don't agree with this offering is all. I think having, Jordan Peele sign the books actually de-value them as any link between him, Ira Levin and Rosemary's Baby is convoluted at best. Of course that is just my opinion and last time I looked this is still America and the first amendment is in force. I'm entitled to my opinion regardless if you all agree with me or not. Because my opinion may not be popular does not justify folks tearing me a new one because of it. I have a few other issues with this edition that in deference to, Paul I will not elaborate on that have also contributed to my position. Paul, is a great guy and makes wonderful books. If you like everything he does by all means plunk down your money and purchase away. I sincerely doubt that my opinion is going to sway a single buyer. It's just my opinion and it is worth about as much as the ink used to write it down, so to speak. Remember, it can't always be diamonds that are produced. Occasionally, a clunker comes along. I sincerely wish, Paul nothing but success and from the posts I've seen here, that is exactly what he is experiencing here. More power to him and all of you folks.

Lastly, a very reliable little birdie has informed me that the individual who left the negative feedback and in true cowardly fashion did not identify himself was none other than, Kris (Webstar1000). Typical of someone like, Kris to resort to such tactics. Just goes to show you the strength of his character and standing amongst his peers. If you have a differing opinion from someone at least have the strength of character to stand up, identify yourself, make your case and be ready to accept the consequences as the chips may fall.

Devalues - strong take. I’d be curious to know what type of collector is repulsed by this signature.


...any link between him, Ira Levin and Rosemary's Baby is convoluted at best.

I don’t think a direct link is necessary; notable works of significant age are routinely “introduced” by current people in the industry (in this case, the horror genre). Peele seems in keeping with that.

I’m not suggesting you need to like anything you don’t like; I just have a hard time grasping your logic.

I didn't say I was "repulsed", now you're just trying to put words in my mouth and escalate the discussion. I don't feel he adds anything to the edition or makes any sense in this context. Again, just my opinion and you are entitled to yours. We just disagree. It happens in life. Learn to live with it and be well.

*raises hands*

For me award winning actor Peele adds as much to the book as award winner Sandra Bullock would add ... still I think both are fabulous but don’t have any stake in this game - whatsoever.

Picking him was imho a regular industry process.

He is getting a lot (earned) attention this days for Black Klans Men and both parties benefit from such an collaboration.

Well that’s ok and good for both, but for me it’s to artificial. I would prefer something that has a less constructive and more organic taste.

Doesn’t mean that it can’t be the jackpot for somebody who likes Peele and RB and for whom this is a welcome mashup , but it’s not for me.

Second raise I have on the pricing.

Where I agree, that misery had a lot love in the details and set a new standard to limiteds - as we only had a few times before - Horns f.e. Was quite basic (still with love and some (less) creativity ) rosemarys baby imho only has the high end material left. (Sorry silver foil cross is not what I was expecting)

No surprising creative perks at all, nothing that can connect with the outstanding pieces of fine-art suntup had published before.

I know it’s hard to keep that level up , but suntup set the bar themselves ;)

I hope and strong believe that they will add a shovel of love and creativity to the next publication but in this particular case I don’t believe that 700$ is appropriate.

I wonder if the Levin family had any loose signatures that could've been repurposed for the lettered. I've seen lettered editions of late Jack Vance, Harlan Ellison, and Ray Bradbury. That would've appeased the signature hunters. I'm sure there could've been unique ways to incorporate them into the design.

Seems a tad ghoulish to me, but not ghoulish as in "here's a fingernail clipping we took from his corpse" (ghoulish is a spectrum). Maybe not; maybe it gives the surviving family another asset from which to profit, which can be a good thing, particularly for smaller names.

I think many of the posthumous signed editions you're referring to had signed sheets just because that usually gets done pretty early in production. I don't think fears of the authors demise were necessarily at play.

webstar1000
01-22-2019, 10:38 AM
King signed a pile of sheets for Gauntlet and he produced (three I think) Lettereds with them. I think that is pretty cool of an idea and if I were King I would do it for the coolness factor if nothing else...

You could be the one who makes this a sell out on Paul's site. Now there are other places that have it as has been noted but don't let not getting Misery prevent you from getting these other books.

OUT OF PRINT on Paul's site. That leaves the other places like Camelot and Subpres

Sub Press shows none available. Camelot has one. Dark Regions has four.
https://subterraneanpress.com/slider-tabs/just-announced/rosemarys-baby
doesn't the fact that it doesn't say sold out mean that they have some? Only asking. You would know better than me. And I did not know that Dark Regions had them as well.
Thanks for the clarification.

SubPress has one copy left.

Technically, it's a sellout at Suntup as those copies were sold to the other presses. Congrats on another one, Paul!

Anything King-related is a given. The non-King horror classics to produce are more difficult. How about Psycho? That would seemingly fit the pattern. Red Dragon? I would prefer to see some more obscure titles, but from a demand perspective I can understand why certain books are produced.

Well, of course King would take precedence. My suggestion was assuming that he wasn't an option presently. Also, I kinda figured if another King book was in the offing the deal was already done and King may be driving the selections anyway. I just figured, Jaws was a great book, Benchley is still alive (?) and, Paul might be able to seek a deal relatively easy. Of course, and I'm unfamiliar with other authors S/L or special editions, but McCammon or Straub might be viable authors with very marketable editions to track down for a deal. Probably nothing I or others suggest will have any impact on,Suntup's next publications anyway. I'm sure, Paul has projects lined up in advance, but it's fun to speculate anyway.

Dracula is an awesome book, but I think its been done before several times. The Exorcist as well now that I think about it. Not that, Paul wouldn't surpass any previous editions efforts. FWIW, I don't recall "Shadowland" a having a S/L being done, but that doesn't mean one wasn't for all I know. I'd go doe a, Suntup offering of "Shadowland" as I always enjoyed that book by, Straub. Just my solely opinion and thoughts for all they're worth.

I think the fan club is just you, me, and my brother-in-law (we need to do some recruiting).


... I love "Ghost Story" as well.

I quite liked it when I read it, but it has been many years (maybe more than 10) since I've read it and I've forgotten the finer points and am due a re-read; to that end, I recently bought an old GS hardcover (for just under $4) and will hit it soon.

I really need to read some more Straub. Aside from GS and Shadowland, I've only read Julia (a very early one of his, and which struck me as a simpler version of something that would have worked for me but in the end didn't), Floating Dragon (which I didn't like to put it mildly, but more importantly is interesting for how many things it has in common with It), Lost Boy Lost Girl, In The Night Room (these two were connected and were fine), and A Dark Matter (which was better than LBLG and ITNR, but not up there with GS and Shadowland for me). [Of course, I've read his collaborations with King].

St. Troy
01-29-2019, 07:38 AM
Here's a list of characteristics of Straub's Floating Dragon, which will look mighty familiar to anyone who's read It (and take the spoiler tags seriously; if you plan to read FD and haven't, don't look here!):

Roughly every 30 years, an evil being with the ability to hide its true form returns to a secluded town to murder, and feed on, its residents.

The current trouble manifests, in part, by local children coming to bad ends.

A group of ordinary people in the town:
…bond to fight the evil being
…find that they are stronger together
…no adult member of this group has yet had children

One member of this group is a long-time town resident:
…whose work involves books
…who is interested in the cyclical events and knows more about them than the rest of the group
…who learned some of the history of the cycle from a conversation with an elderly person fluent with the town’s history

This history includes a disaster:
…in a place whose name begins with ‘K’
…which didn’t seem as if it could have been caused by an individual
…in which multiple people died
…in which several of the deaths were children
…in which many victims’ bodies ended up underground.

Only one group member is female; she:
…suffers physical abuse at the hands of her husband, which ends before battle with the evil being commences.
…bonded individually with each male in the group (the males did not bond with each other)

Group members witness:
…the pleading voice of a child known to be dead.
…a book containing historical information opening itself and moving its pages
…images shown to them by the evil entity, which they then banished by declaring their unreality

A moon with a face spoke to one of the group’s enemies.

The group sets out to kill the evil being at a creepy, long-uninhabited house.

In the process of pursuing and battling the evil being, the group:
…finds a creepy, ancient-looking door through which they must pass to truly commence battle
…suffers personalized, despair-inducing hallucinations
…learns that the evil being had babies, which they then attempt to kill

After the evil is vanquished:
…widespread destruction occurs throughout the town
…the ground opens up
…buildings fall down
…the group gathers in a circle
…the group is not able to stay together
…(later) one group member has a child.


...now, having noted all of that, FD is a very different book from It, and not just because I love one and dislike the other; these are very different casts and plots.

And FYI, FD came out first, for any who might wonder.

Too late. I’ve already interpreted your previous post as undeniable gospel. We are now literary adversaries for life.

Srsly though most usually put black Sunday and Rising as the bottom two of his five. You’d be better off rereading a Suntup S/L Hannibal instead... also and since he’s apparently Paulie Hollywood Suntup, I really really wouldn’t mind if Sir Anthony & Mads M. also signed our future S/L.

I do. And I am not ashamed either. I am really thinking about getting one because it sounds like a great book, with the color pic and reversible DJ.
We shall see though. I really would want people who could not get the others to have first dibs.

Reversible dustjacket? Switching back and forth can’t be good for preserving the integrity of the paper, so I’d guess the prudent thing to do is pick one side and stick with it. Which for some will mean ordering two copies to show each side separately.

I wonder why the delay between announcing the lettered and limited editions, and this one - gauging demand? Some other logistical concern? Just curious.

Paul, just wanted to tip my cap to you sir. So many companies, especially successful ones like yourself, tend to think they know what’s best for the customer and ignore customer feedback, citing their historical success as proof that their instincts are all they need. (Looking at you Jobs and Lucas) Thanks for amending your offering to include an Artist Gift Edition

To be clear, the description says "double-sided" not reversible. There's no way a DJ could be reversible without damaging it. Unless Paul sends all DJs in a tube rolled up and the buyer decides which side to display--and sticks with that decision--there won't be variations in what is displayed. Otherwise, I imagine there will be a front side and inside chosen by Suntup as the right way to wear the jacket. If it's the tube option, then I'll have to buy two!

Thrilled to get this Artist Edition Paul! Thanks for making it happen.

An AGE was never planned. We decided to do one because a lot of people were asking for it. It was not as if we knew we were doing it from the get go, and held off announcing it. It's a decision that was made a couple weeks ago.

No problem. The Limited level books do leave some people out of the running for a copy. It's not always possible to do a GE, but in this case, I made every effort to make it happen because people were asking.

Thanks.

Yeah, thanks Brian. I'm pretty happy for me too. It's so cool that Paul makes the artist edition with exclusive features as well. That DJ idea is pretty awesome. Never saw anything like that before, with art on both sides. How can you brodart a jacket like that, I wonder. I might have to buy an extra DJ if that'll be possible.

Essentially yes. The back of the jacket will be printed. I will probably have some extra jackets available to purchase.

Here's a question you might not be willing (or able) to answer:

Other than Horns and Rosemary's Baby, how many (unannounced) projects do you have in active development at the moment? How many are still on your wishlist, so to say (where the project has not yet gone beyond the "One day, I'd like to..." stage)?

(By the way, I don't know if you made the connection from my forum name, but I'm "the boat guy." I'm still waiting for that piece of wallpaper from Hill House ;-) )

What’s up boat guy?! To answer your questions:

You will have to email me and remind me about the wallpaper. If we’re relying on my memory then we’re in trouble!

Can't wait to hear about what you have in the works - when you're ready to spill of course.
Based on what you do have in development, would you consider Suntup to be a genre publisher?

No. There’s gold in them thar hills. And by gold, I mean great books outside our much loved genre that deserve special treatment.
