    HERETIC!!!

    I'm totally joking. Like I said above, I like the SubPress RP1 and am looking forward to RP2 but IF, for some reason, they're not publishing it and the S/L rights are available then I think Paul could knock it out of the park. The combo RP1/RP2 idea could even be shelved for a 10th or 15h anniversary edition ... give everybody something to look forward to.

    Honestly I just hope the story doesn't suck. RP1 was a rare one for me in that I absolutely loved both the book and the movie; is RP2 going to be an Aliens, or is it going to be a Grease 2?
    Hey, hey, whaddaya have against bowling alleys and cool riders?!?
    Can I change my survey answer to a Suntup Edition of the Grease 2 script??

    Nothing for me yet. I ordered both so maybe tomorrow when the numbered are scheduled.
    But your right, always awesome to get it shipped ahead of schedule.
    I got a shipping notice too. 😎
    I agree though, always nice ahead of schedule.

    Got the shipping notice for Red Dragon to Australia. Continue to be impressed with Suntup's consistent ability to delivery on, or ahead of, schedule, thus far.

    This is very risky. Please send me a PM with your order number. I would rather send using a different carrier or you aren’t going to be there. It’s unlikely it will arrive before you go on holiday.

    Thanks Paul, very much appreciated. I sent my email earlier and you have kindly changed carriers. Thank you, gives a lot more control, ie send delivery to the post office etc.

    Can't wait to reread the Hannibal series again with this beautiful edition.

    I'm also trying to get my hands on the limited edition of The Silence of the Lambs from SubPress

    'SILENCE' was my first choice in the recent Suntup survey in books I'd like to see them publish, and I hope it was others' as well. If Paul does it- and it looks as promising as RED DRAGON's design (and, I'm sure it will), and I'm lucky enough to land a copy (see below), it would be a very hard choice indeed whether to sell my Subpress edition- signed or no. I've really grown to love that edition, despite my initial reticence to Marshall Arisman's artwork. It's a grower, definitely. Like any good art, really. But, I'm a big fan of that whole package now.

    Presumably, Paul could get Harris to sign a SotL edition, as he got him to sign RD (and here I digress: How did Paul get Harris to sign 250 numbered copies, but Subpress "couldn't" get him to sign 200? Was that a Harris choice at the time, or a Subpress choice? I'd love to know, because that Subpress numbered edition really should have been signed, and I've never understood why it wasn't). But- this book would also be a PRIME candidate for the increased print run Paul was talking about awhile ago. If so, would Harris sign 350 copies (plus lettereds)? It's really not a lot to have to sign. Jeez, Lansdale, Gaiman, Hill, et al sign 2K copies nowadays, and they are "big" names in publishing.

    My real question amid all this random speculation, however, would be- how would they be allotted? As usual, buyers of whatever previous book have first rights of refusal? RED DRAGON buyers first right of refusal? Yes, please! Then, the (if applicable) "extra" 100 copies go live on site in a dogfight?

    And that brings up: how would collectors feel about there being 250 copies of RD and 350 copies of SotL? My vote: Always more beautiful books that buyers want. Not less. I dislike manufactured exclusivity. Of course, that is up to all the writers and artists involved, and what they are willing to do, and what it costs. Anyway- just wondering!

    If Paul does ever do The Silence of the Lambs, first right of refusal will go to the owners of the most recent Suntup Edition.

    And if the book was published with the larger print run of 350, then I suppose it would be no different than the recent publication of The Lottery.

    Haunting of Hill House only has 185 copies, as opposed to the 250 copies created of The Lottery. It's also a great example of how Hill House owners did not get first refusal of The Lottery (unless they had purchased Fahrenheit 451, of course).

    Except, the difference with your Jackson analogy is that SOTL is a direct sequel to Red Dragon - the Jackson books are not a series. One could reasonably expect Suntup to apply the Donald M. Grant model - where the next DT SL book rights world sit with TWTTK SL owners, and not whatever book they had published in between.

    I suppose anything is possible. I'm just going off of the two track situation he's done so far. One track for the King books and one track for everything else.

    Maybe in everyone’s package with the Red Dragon numbered edition is a big red ticket that announces Suntup will be publishing Silence of the Lambs and grants the bearer the right to buy it.

    Great breakdown of things. Good news is Harris signed hundreds (maybe thousands?) of copies of Cari Mora and the sigs for Suntups Red Dragon so maybe his signature hand will be a more willing literary partner moving forward.

    The consignment is the lettered edition, i bought the limited one.
    I do think they have multiple copies of TSOTL, because the other book (Neil Gaiman) that i bought is now listed as "sold out".

    I do think they have multiple copies of TSOTL, because the other book (Neil Gaiman) that i bought is now listed as "sold out".
    You’re right (don’t know why I collect books if I can’t read).

    I'm also trying to get my hands on the limited edition of The Silence of the Lambs from SubPress
    I've been debating selling my numbered but I have not seen a sale of one lately so I'm not sure what they would go for.
    I just bought that TSOTL by SubPress at camelot, together with a signed first trade edition of The Ocean At The End Of The Lane by Neil Gaiman. 😉
    Didn’t even think to check Camelot. There is one up for sale via consignment or is that the one you bought?
    The consignment is the lettered edition, i bought the limited one.

    That's okay, when i woke up this morning i couldn't read either, although that was more likely caused by the aftermath of the alcoholic event i attended to yesterday which is known as "a bachelor party"

    Ps: the bachelor is not me.😬

    And that brings up: how would collectors feel about there being 250 copies of RD and 350 copies of SotL? My vote: Always more beautiful books that buyers want. Not less. I dislike manufactured exclusivity. Of course, that is up to all the writers and artists involved, and what they are willing to do, and what it costs. Anyway- just wondering!
    If Paul does ever do The Silence of the Lambs, first right of refusal will go to the owners of the most recent Suntup Edition.

    And if the book was published with the larger print run of 350, then I suppose it would be no different than the recent publication of The Lottery.

    Haunting of Hill House only has 185 copies, as opposed to the 250 copies created of The Lottery. It's also a great example of how Hill House owners did not get first refusal of The Lottery (unless they had purchased Fahrenheit 451, of course).
    Except, the difference with your Jackson analogy is that SOTL is a direct sequel to Red Dragon - the Jackson books are not a series. One could reasonably expect Suntup to apply the Donald M. Grant model - where the next DT SL book rights world sit with TWTTK SL owners, and not whatever book they had published in between.
    First let me say, Paul needs to do what Paul needs to do. He's already done far more for collectors than any other small publisher that I know of. Upgrades to the materials on already sold out books. Upgrades to the shipping services offered. Upgrades to the website experience. So no one should expect him to match numbers for Red Dragon purchasers to a possible SOTL. The system is set up for King and Non-King matching. Would I be happy to be guaranteed to match to SOTL if I lose my job and fall off the train? Yes. But maybe if I lose my job I shouldn't be worried about the chance to buy a book worth hundreds.

    ANYWAY all of that rambling disclaimer to say I assumed a future Harris book would go the same way as the Jackson books went. But I hadn't considered that The Lottery was not a sequel to Hill House. Just the same author. AND Paul hasn't said boo about SOTL.
