For those not on the Facebook site, Suntup have put up individual bookmarks for sale.

Thanks, the link works, but cant figure out how to get there directly from the website.

Ordering a couple extra (to use, never wanted to use the ones that came with the books).

People are reading too much into this.

Paul, given your penchant for Easter eggs and hidden messages, can you blame us?

Love the concept and design! Really well done.

People are reading too much into this. But it looks like you’re having fun with it and are enjoying the whole presentation. That’s great. We had fun coming up with the concept, especially the fake book.

Drat, so the next title isn't 'Death Walks in Marble Halls' then?

Oh, wait! It just occurred to me that when you say “*reading too much* into this”, you mean that the solution to the puzzle is in the *picture* on the cover of the fake book, and nothing to do with the *words* on the cover.

Crafty.

The bibliomysteries blank book could just be a journal for would be writers to write their own stories.

Can't blame you at all!

Ha ha. Afraid not!

Sorry it took so long!

Years ago...Austin Powers movies; it was Starbucks taking over the world. Nowadays it's Amazon, Apple, or Google.
Next up is Suntup.
I project Suntup going public in 2026 with an initial share price of $1,919.19, and a market capitalization of $1.9 billion, and in 10 years a market cap of $1.9 trillion. Strong recommendation to buy upon IPO.


Paul writes a bestselling book: "How to stay small in a big world", and semi-retires ala Bill Gates to spend his time on philanthropic endeavors.

Curious if anyone found clues.

Just urine and semen stains.

Were those part of the publication provided by the publisher or added later on?

Please note........I have never been correct in anything, ever!

I’m pleased to report that your stellar track record remains intact. :-)

I even looked back over about 100 pages of this thread to see if a clear favourite emerged from what previous surveys for the feb book and gave up....

i did find a post where i suggested 350 as the new level....quite impressed i had that level of influence.....

What you mean you never read it?

Just unboxed Bibliomysteries. What a terrific edition! Love the concept and the extras! Way to go Team Suntup. The love of the work is evident in every edition and it’s the pursuit of something bigger that makes all the difference.

Got both the kids (10 & 17) an AG of Fahrenheit 451 for Christmas; he's read it before in school, she hasn't yet but will. Both really liked the slipcase design, she especially likes the "Phoenix" drawing inside but says the "story sounds wierd". How do you explain Fahrenheit 451 to a 10-year old without it sounding wierd?

...Still waiting for Biblio and The End Of The World . I know I am not the only one though.
P.S Great pics George.

Really hoping the End of the World doesn't come!

Those are wonderful pics, George. :-)

Doesn't get much better than a Suntup book for Christmas!

I have a question for Paul and i thought this would be the best place to ask it.
: I am looking at the status updates and I see that both starship troopers and strangere in a strange land share the same status. other then that the numbered and lettered were sold as a set I fully expected these books to be finished at their own comfortable pace, because the status updates is one status for both books (including the AE which were sold seperately) Is it safe to assume that when these books, lettered numbered and AE, will be finished together? what i mean is, will both AE's be ready at the same time and ship together, as well as the numbereds and lettereds? Or is the status update provided for the book that will be finished last?

Just looked on Abesbooks for ‘The Road’ and saw the broadside selling for close to a thousand. That would make it one of the priciest things I own and it’s still in the original mailer just lying on my cabinet.

wait, did it actually SELL for $1,000.00?
or is it just priced that high. anybody can set a high price but i do not think anyone would actually pay that.

It's likely that the Numbered and AE editions of both titles will be complete at the same time. Both titles were printed together and are being bound concurrently. Therefore, I do expect to ship both AE's and both Numbered editions together. The Lettered may or may not ship at the same time. It depends on how production progresses on those. In general, the estimated publication dates that I provide are for the title as a whole. But as you may have observed, not all editions end up being complete at the same time. The Auctioneer is a good example. The Numbered has been published, and we're still waiting on the AE and the Lettered. It's not uncommon for each edition to have different timeframes. There are a lot of moving parts in every production, and I provide my best estimate based on where we're at when we announce. I hope that answers your question.

As an aside, we all know this year has been challenging for obvious reasons, and as a result, production has been moving slower than I would like, but despite that, I just recently looked at what we shipped in 2020, and we shipped 19 different editions. I really try hard to keep the ratio at a comfortable level, between what we announce and what we ship. And it's also part of the reason why we work on books for at least 12 months before announcing.

Guess it’s just priced that high, don’t know what it’s been sold for in the past at least.

i saw one go for $125.00 on eBay October 17, 2 others for $50 and $60 .
it is a beautiful broadside! these cool gifts mark your time collecting Suntup books in the most wonderful way.
I wont sell mine but i enjoy watching auctions of items I also have, not to buy, I just keep an eye on prices paid so I have a better idea of its value
does anyone else do this?

[CyberGhostface]

In regards to Cormac McCarthy I was just wondering how was Joyce Carol Oates’ introduction for The Road? I read elsewhere today she’s been harsh on his work before (especially Blood Meridan so I’m guessing she won’t do the intro for that one unless it’s a roast ).

Speaking of Blood Meridan I will hopefully start it soon to prepare for the Suntup edition. I’ve heard lots of good things and the Judge sounds like a great villain.

Absolutely agreed with that.
Rarity drives the price : if there is no copies for sale, someone can put their own at any price. That doesnt mean that it will sell. But that means that this is the only copy available publicly

I have a copy of this book. First to reply get it free. With the case. Thanks.
