Pretty neat little book if you ask me. I like it a lot.

[MikeDuke]

I also just realize that I did not take enough pics of EOTD. I will do them as soon as I can.

Now for some pics and the sig page

[MikeDuke]

This is a great edition to my Suntup collection. I really like the feel of the case, book and the art is creepy great.
Way to go Paul.

Beautiful and disturbing artwork (fitting). I am obsessed with the book cloth (as always).

[MikeDuke]

I agree. All three books look so great and the art in all of them is fantastic. I am glad I was able to get all of them.
Since I know who the next author is, and I figured out what the Sept book is, while I am very intrested in seeing them,
I am excited for the final quater.

Here is Dark Matter AE

And the sig page

I like the dark slipcase.
Not that it matters.

Steve, you are too quick for me.

And I finally added some more pics to EOTD. They are on page 87 post 2158. I wanted to keep them all together. But you can comment about them, if you want, here. I guess just quote and comment, if you want. Or not.
But I wanted to put the pictures with the book.

[St. Troy]

Great EOTD pics (that is one hell of an edition).

Great EOTD pics (that is one hell of an edition).

Thanks. Glad you like the pics. Yea. It seems simple, but it's a great book. I am really happy to have one.
What's interesting, is that it seems that the first ed and S\L have different art work and different artist.
David Palladini seemed to to the artwork for the first ed and someone named Kenny Ray Linkous did
the artwork for the S\L. The books also seem to have different artwork. I never noticed that before.
I always assumed they would be done by the same person and have the same art work.
Interesting.

Big congrats Mike, supernice new stuff !!!

Big congrats Mike, supernice new stuff !!!

Thanks Frank. I have at least one item I am going to be working on, maybe more. We shall see.

[MikeDuke]

OK. Some people may think it's not a great item to get, but I don't care. I just bought (payments) a first ed inscribed Deadzone. The inscription is awesome. The issue is, it is a later signing. '93. But you what, it's still a first ed and it's still signed and inscribed (a longer inscription). So, I am happy to add this to my collection, even though the date of the inspiration may turn some people off.

Congrats! One of my all time favorite King novels.
