While I agree that the movie and the novel Jaws have stark differences, I feel both are very good and am hoping the July book is indeed Jaws!

While I really like HHGTTG, the Folio Society edition is adequate for me. I am not aware of any nice editions of 'Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency' or the subsequent 'Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul' though, and as I've gotten older I find those are actually my favorite Adams novels.

All three sound like good ones to me. No guesses though.

I've now convinced myself that September is definitely Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Also, I can see why the print run is being bumped to 1250 for the artist edition. A very popular work that appeals to all ages. Maybe Paul will have a golden ticket contest or something like that.
I'm still hoping for a Suntup edition of Where the Red Fern Grows. The very first novel I read as a kid.

Do you think the numbered Jaws is going to fetch high prices on the on the secondary market?

One thought that has occurred is that the Sept book is signed by Paul, but apparently not (in Numbered/Lettered/Roman editions) by an artist. I wonder if this means that the book is using previously published art? Paul is doing the art? Hmm...

If it is Jaws ...

As if we needed one more reason to say that it will be Willy Wonka, this is the 50th year anniversary of the book.

I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

Paul has done a great job mixing in various blockbuster books with more obscure titles. Something for everyone. Beyond the "anything King-related" books my wish list boils down to three books:
1) Under the Skin
2) 1Q84
3) The Man Who Fell to Earth

Thanks. TBH, I really loved the movie and I knew it had a fan base, AND I think it set some box office records... Wait, what was I trying to say? I guess I can see how people
would become intrigued with the movie enough to collect the book. I am looking forward to it. I have no doubt it will be a great ed.
And I see your point as well Kris.

Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies.
Just received my numbered edition of The Exorcist! Extremely cool looking - I really like the purple cigar box and the black book with the priest's collar. One of my favorites so far!
Checking the box contents: Carefully boxed, beautiful Suntup edition? Check! Bookmark? Check! Unexpected bonus item? WOW! I guess I finally earned my Suntup merit badge!
EDIT: Hid image as I realized this could be considered a spoiler.
