Would love to get one but they quickly went out of my reach……
WANTED:
Any DT S/L’s #181
Posted on fb earlier, and thought I’d post here too.
Huge delivery day today, my first ever Suntup lettered, and what a beauty.
No prizes when I say, to me, that this is the top none King book to be published. Some love it, some think it’s meh! I love it.
Many years ago a close colleague recommended it to me not long after it had been released, and I had to order it from the US as it hadn’t had an international release as yet. She told me it was mind blowing, thought provoking, and would stay with you long after you’d finished it.
I’m going to be as honest as I can, my young typical boy thoughts tended first towards how much action and fornication I could get through if it happened to me, then to the other end of the spectrum, of the implications of reliving those lives over and over again, to the point of how it could change your soul and existence and the knowledge that you could garner and use, to the ultimate question of why don’t I do all those things now, in the real world..
Jeff Winston is far from faultless, but who is? He isn’t a hero, or a villain, just an everyday guy, who relives his life over and over. The rush to the last chapters, after so many revisits, just blow me away, like a whirlwind, just don’t want it to end, so I read it ever year or so, love it, just as much as my first time.
I’m sure it wasn’t my first time travel story, (the time machine I think) but the first that really gripped me as deeply as this. Morlocks scared the life out of me, this just made me think beyond the book.
Paul’s first surveys were returned, with Replay up there at the top, always. My posts always had a footnote, and many emails sent to the suntup team begging for it to be printed. Now I’m not saying it was my sole efforts that got this published, it wasn’t, but I’d love to think I was a big part of the tug of war that dragged this book over the line, and one day, a replay arc turned up on my doorstep, with compliments. I love that about Suntup more than anything, they pay attention.
One thing I do know (other than that the book isn’t real, I know that) is if it happened to me, I most likely would be buying an eyes of the dragon portfolio (numbered and lettered) on each pass! And nagging for this book to be made again too!
Thank you and sorry, I needed to get that off my chest.

I agree. SH5 looks like an amazing book. I only have 1 and half shelves left for my Suntup books. But, it should be a while. At least until those two monsters show up. But I still have a lot coming my way, so hope I can make it a little further with my one book case. But those two monsters have me concerned, in a good way . Including today, I still have 16 books I have to figure out where to put. Man, nobody warned me .

Really excited about 'Slaughterhouse Five' - if any numbered are available Saturday I'll buy one. The numbered edition tics all the boxes for me - great art, very classy & restrained binding design, and printed letterpress on a nice paper. Printing looks to have a pretty serious bite to it, based on the photos. Just going off the mockups, this might follow just behind 'Blood Meridian' and the lettered edition of 'The Lottery' for my favorite Suntup book overall.

I am stoked for Slaughter-House 5. One of my favorite authors and beautiful designs by Team Suntup. Looking forward to both the Numbered and the AE.

I hardly ever figure out the hints for the books in the quarter. But, it really doesn't matter because I am going to buy them anyway. Come on 12:00 EST .
BTW, there are 6 left now. They may not make it to 12:00 EST 9 PST, and if they do, it may be
a frenzy if people can guess the next books.

My guess is:
WAR AND PEACE by Leo Tolstoy
THE BLAH STORY by Nigel Tomm
The entire MISSION EARTH by L. Ron Hubbard in ONE volume
Of course, I could be wrong.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.
And the people bowed and prayed, to the cell phone god they made...
If the small rectangular thing(s) on Paul's desk in the last live were a hint of things to come this quarter (or the next) then my guess would be that maybe American Psycho is in the mix. Because those looked like business cards to me. 😊
But hey, i'm just random guessing and speculating here. 😅

The Stepford Wives is the last title, i think. 😉
