Auction #29
Scribner Hard Back Edition of Lisey's Story
With Slipcase
ISBN # 13: 978-0-7394-7653-6




Lisey (pronounced Lee-See) Landon is the widow of an award winning novelist, Scott Landon. In the middle of cleaning out Scott's study, Lisey realizes that there's a great deal about Scott's past (and the past they shared together) that she has blocked out--and with the introduction of a crazy man named Dooley, Lisey must figure out what she's hidden from herself (and what Scott has planned for her) if she's to remain alive. The story is deeply psychological in nature, capturing every essence of the psyche of Lisey as she engages on her quest.

Auction #31
Transgressions-Edited by Ed McBain
Includes "The Things They Left Behind" by Stephen King


One of the last projects completed before his death by crime novelist Ed McBain was Transgressions, an anthology of novellas that brings together ten of the top names in mystery. The book is unthemed-contributors had only to submit original tales loosely crime-related. McBain's theory was that writing at novella length (the stories range between 25 and over 100 pages) would be a change of pace for his authors. The stories appear in the book in reverse alphabetical order by author.

Auction #32
The Dead Zone
US First Edition


This book is a first according to the list of how to tell I got from Hutch's (http://marketplaceadvisor.channeladvisor.com/StoreFrontProfiles/deluxepagecreate.aspx?sfid=30007&type=e2)site. It is in very good condition

The Dead Zone is a novel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novel) by Stephen King (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_King) published in 1979. It is about Johnny Smith (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Smith_%28Dead_Zone%29), who is injured in an accident and enters a coma (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coma) for nearly five years. When he emerges, he can see horrifying secrets, but he cannot identify all the details of his "dead zone", an area of his brain (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain) that suffered permanent damage as the result of his accident.
Much of the book plays against the historical backdrop of the 1970s. It has been suggested that the story might be based on self-proclaimed "psychic" Peter Hurkos (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Hurkos), who received a head injury in a fall from a ladder, and afterward claimed to be able to know things about people by touching objects that belonged to them, psychometry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychometry).

Awesome! :huglove:

Check your pm's too Matt, I might have some more prizes if you need them :D

Sorry Matt..the wife had to have surgery today, so I've been out for a bit. I am definitely still interested in it.

Thanks!

Matt, for some reason I cannot sent any PMs..can you PM me with the details of how much I owe and the best way to pay?

[Matt]

That's done now, you should be able to PM.

Please include $2.00 for shipping. :rock:

[Darkthoughts]

:lol: I am destined to stick with my UK edition!

[herbertwest]

i thought it was a Book of the month club edition and not scribner???

[Matt]

It is exactly as photographed above

[turtlex]

I just asked at the Catalog thread and since this one has the CUT-OUT of the shovel on the slipcase, then it's the Schribners edition.

I apparently have the BOMC edition, which has a graphic of the shovel... but NO cut-out at all.

[Matt]

Thanks Pam :wub:

[sleeplessdwarf]

I am looking at the book in the pic so I wondered if that is the more common cover art on the front? Maybe I am completely blind but the book is without DJ right? Solid red with the floral only in the pic of the shovel? If I am mistaken and that is the DJ covering up the hardback print I am sorry for confusing. I am on pain meds atm so maybe my mind is playing tricks. Here is a funny quote by a self claimed hardcore King fan.

"so whenever ol' Steve squirts out another novel, I'm there at the bookstore on day one, trotting up to the register with a lump in my jockeys. So when King's book dropped a few days ago, I was there, baby.

Or rather, SlamWife was there, because I had some other crap to do. So she picked up a copy for me, and had it waiting for me on the coverlet of the bed when I came home that night. Damn, that SlamWife is a good woman.

So I brushed my teeth, put on my pajammies, and curled up with King's latest opus... and fell asleep after reading twenty pages.

And that's as far as I've gotten.

So why the review? Well, I can drop a little 411 about the book just based on those twenty pages, and the brief time I spent manhandling the book itself. And these things are important-- the sort of things you may want to know before making the purchase yourself. For starters, well...

...apparently Stephen King wants everyone to think I'm gay. Or if not gay, he wants everyone to think I'm a 45-year-old single woman who spends her Saturday nights curled up on the couch with a tub of Cool-Whip and a salad spoon, reading schmaltzy romance novels. Know why? Because when you take off the slipcover of the book, the hardcover itself is all done up in this hideous pink, purple and green floral print , with words like "Baby Luv" slopped into the mix. I'm the sort of SlamShut who likes to take his latest book with him to the doctor's office or, God forbid, the DMV if I'm gonna be forced to wait, but I'll have to think twice before doing that with "Lisey's Story," because King has decided to wrap his latest work in a cover that look's like Aunt Tillie's shelfpaper. It's friggin' hideous. Matter of fact, it's so sickeningly saccharine that it's actually, well, horrifying. Which, I guess, is appropriate."
"

[sleeplessdwarf]

I posted the funny comment mainly because for a second I felt the same. I got the book from ebay and the seller used a stock pic of shovel cut out. It did not come with DJ so when I opened the box I was like wtf did these people send me. I never ordered anything that looked like this. :wtf:

[sleeplessdwarf]

Ok, now I looked and seen where the slipcase edition is different. Sorry for being retarded. :panic:

McSweeney's #27



Plunging straight into the grayish, faintly understood area of the art world that involves oddly drawn objects coupled with uncertainly spelled text, McSweeney's 27 brings together a previously uncategorized cadre of pithy draftsmen, genius doodlers, and fine-artistic cartoonists, and buffets them with essays examining just what it is that these people are doing and why the world should know about it. With work by Jim Shepard, Stephen King, Art Spiegelman, David Shrigley, Tucker Nichols, and many others, and stories by a wide variety of excellent writers.

The Facts in the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch
Creatures of the Night
By Neil Gaiman


Two wonderful graphic novels by Neil Gaiman. A bit of damage on the corner of both but otherwise good condition.

The Facts in the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch

Come, come and hear of the strange and terrible tale of Miss Finch, an exacting woman befallen by mystery and abduction deep under the streets of London! New York Times bestselling author Neil Gaiman delivers another stunning hardcover graphic novel with longtime collaborator Michael Zulli (Creatures of the Night, The Sandman). This is the first comics adaptation of his popular story "The Facts in the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch," which saw print only in the U.K. edition of Gaiman's award-winning work Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions and was recently interpreted for his Speaking in Tongues CD

fantasticfiction (http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/g/neil-gaiman/facts-in-case-of-departure-of-miss-finch.htm)

Creatures of the Night


From the New York Times best-selling author Neil Gaiman comes a brand new hardcover collection, featuring two magical and disturbing stories lushly adapted to comics by veteran painter Michael Zulli (The Last Temptation). Newly rewritten by Gaiman for this graphic novel, these two ominous stories from the author's award-winning prose, Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions, feature animals and people not being quite what they seem.
