I like that story very much, Ron. And I agree with Paul that those are definitely keepers for a long, long time.
I had to try two times to finish Hyperion. I then trudged through Fall of Hyperion to get some sense of closure. Both books had some really good stuff but I am just not a science fiction fan and...
I placed three separate orders at Sub Press over the last two days and prior to seeing Bill's offer of $50. But I didn't sign in to a personal account for any of them. For that matter I don't ever...
You go for that one Bob?[/QUOTE]
Yes. Dan Simmons is one of the authors I collect. Along with Robert McCammon and Peter Straub. If it is published I try to get it.
Lettered edition of Summer of Night now stating "Sold Out." And, interestingly enough, there is another Simmons book announced today by Subterranean Press. This Year's Class Picture is a zombie story...
Still 2 left by my calculations...[/QUOTE]
The option to buy a lettered copy was gone for a while yesterday and then it showed back up. I guess there were some copies in shopping carts that didn't...
And it's gone.
Down to one lettered left.
Even if you don't collect Simmons a lot Summer of Night is one of the greatest books ever.
Only 3 lettereds left. Wow!
Thanks so much for the heads up on this book. I suspect it will sell out fairly quickly (but what do I know?). At any rate I'm glad to have gotten an early order in.
I hear that a lot. Why does everyone say that? I have never seen it but what puts it so far above the rest?[/QUOTE]
ANy pics Bob?[/QUOTE]
There are pics on the Earthling website but I took...
I think the lettered Song of Kali by Earthling is the single most beautiful book in my entire collection.
One of Simmons' best! When you are finished you might want to read A Winter Haunting. I won't tell you why though.
Bill has been routinely matching my letters and numbers for the Matthew Corbett books (by McCammon) but I'm not certain that all of my McCammon books are matched with the same letter. I'll have to...
I have letter "D." I also have a set of numbered editions and somehow lucked out and got #1.
I got a proof/ARC today. Finally found one for sale. $15.
Still waiting on Poisoned Pen but I ordered after you guys did.
That was only announced yesterday and it looks like the lettered edition is already sold out. Less than 24 hours. Pretty quick. Simmons is great. Really looking forward to reading this one.
That's what I thought about Dan Simmons and Charles Dickens.
I was so wrong: I hated Drood!
