2 new items in my Werber's collection!
magazines that did publish short stories!
one of them, published 3 years ago was the short version of the novel published last year...
----
isnt an ARC, but it's the ONLY ONE i have ever seen : a review copy of the french 1st ed of CARRIE !
how do i know? the punched SP is used by some publisher to say "service presse"... p
I am SOOO HAPPY (even if the book isnt in great shape...)! ok, now i need to find a french ARC for the same edition xD
Imagine my suprise when I found a package awaiting me last night on my door step. I figured that it was the book from Ari, but upon closer examination, I see that the name on the box is a known person; and in hand script 'Randall Flagg'. I couldn't find the keys to my door fast enough. My amazement was furthered when I found a hardcover copy collection of the seven comics in The Gunslinger Born. I was speachless. Had it not been for my computer not working at home, I would have come on that very instant last night and wrote this.
I will post pictures tonight
Congratulations to both!!
Wanted list:

Wizardsrainbow sent me this copy--its such an amazing thing, my collection has started just the way I have always dreamed.
Added bonus, its through the generosity of real people and that makes the books even more special imo.

Congratulations, Matt. Just remember that collecting King is addictive! There's ALWAYS something else out there you want!

Congrats, Matt. Wiz, you're a good man!

well done! (even if the cover looks not really nice :p )
last thing recieved : not a King related item, but for my Werber's item collection.
(Werber is a french 'fantastic'-SF-philosophy author....)
1st time i did see it, a promo item (pins) for his 1st book : les fourmis.
I don't know Werber, but congrats on finding an item on a favored author, herbertwest!

Well after three years the 25th Anniversary of Dark Forces finally arrived (numbered edition). and it was worth the wait, it is really a beautiful and HUGE book. The traycase is almost 4 inches wide. The paper is the same that was printed by CD for From a Buick 8. And it's got a cool fold-out traycase. And there's a lot of illustrations for The Mist, so they didn't skimp out on Kings story.

The kindness of close friends is like a warm blanket
