I agree there guys. 11/22/63 is for sure one of my favorite King books. TCCBodhi, good to hear it brought you back to the fold and I also wasn't a big fan of UTD, although I did finish it. As soon as I finish what I'm reading now, I'm on to Finders Keepers, then another non King book, and then I may finally read Duma Key. That's the plan anyway.
I very muched enjoyed Duma Key. I think you will too, Paul.
I guess I'll have to read Duma Key after I finish Revival and the other couple books I have out from the library.There's never enough time!!

Here's how DUMA KEY ends....just kidding!
Thanks for the BAG!
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...
Good one Steve. You almost had me there. Good to hear the bag arrived.
I love Grimwood's Replay!

Yes it's really brilliant and so well written. I couldn't put it down.
Since it's release day. This one I got the old-fashioned way. I walked into a bookstore and bought it! Didn't want to risk getting a damaged copy via Amazon. Just waiting now for the UK editions...
And I managed to get the "ARL" via eBay.
If you haven't read FK yet, you should. Great book.
^I picked mine up today too. Even had 40% off, woo!

The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
Just something quick. Got in a nice copy of the UK DT IV. I had been missing this edition and just received it recently. Ended up with an extra copy if anyone's interested.
Is that the Hardback? If so you know thats not the 1st edition right? It's an export edition. The Original UK was a soft 'French Fold' Cover.
EDIT: Now that I look closer, it does not appear to be a hardback, difficult to tell
"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
Yes, this is the softcover. And yep, I know this one is considered the 1st edition. I do actually still want the hardcover export edition. Any ones I've seen for sale haven't been in the condition I would like so still looking.
What does the export hardcover look like? I only know the signed limited 1/500 with slipcase, and the small BCA hardcover.
It has hard boards (I think black) and a dust jacket the same design as photo above. Most went to Australia I think.
I don't have one so can't say for sure but my understanding is basically what Jon said. It looks the same as the BCA or softcover editions in terms of cover art. It's just a hardcover version which I also believe went mostly to Australia.
That looks to be a perfect copy, Paul. Congratulations!
I think it was ONLY sold in Australia. Here are some photo's. Mine has the full numberline, but there is no price on the DJ which I *think* is correct.

That's the one. Thanks Simon.
I didn't even know there was a normal Hodder DT4 hardcover!
*puts it on wantlist*
Thanks for posting!
Learn something new every day here don't you....
Thanks Alan. Yes, it's a really nice copy. Took some time to find one in this condition.
Congrats Paul !! always sun outside your window
Another cool addition! I'm curious though, where/how did you get the letter that came with FK?
