Cemetery Dance discussion thread

Given that "The Stand" still hasn't been publicly announced and that I haven't seen anything about "Pet Sematary" yet, am I right to assume that no preorders of any sort have been done so far?
But the book is still being "considered" / worked on, as part of the Doubleday Collection?

I am talking about "Pet Sematary"

https://www.cemeterydance.com/stephe...-book-set.html

I ordered the full 6 book Doubleday set in May of 2014.

Can someone please remind me when was "released" the limited edition of "Gwendy's Magic Feather"?

(It it already had been. Otherwise when was it announced? Thanks)

I ordered my copy on May 1, 2019. I think that was the first day it was available to order.

[herbertwest]

Thanks !

Brian, How long after the Gwendy's Final Task Feb 15th trade release date do you expect the limited editions to be completed and released?

I couldn't hazard a guess on that yet, unfortunately. The printing industry is such a mess. I wish I could give you a date, but I'd rather not guess and set wrong expectations.

Hi Brian I was just curious if I was reading the price correctly on the Lettered edition of "A face in the Crowd/Longest December"

What is the page count on this?

$4000 is what I saw too. Wow!

Yep, it is correct. The elements that play off the "double" nature of the book should be very, very cool. CD has never published a Lettered Edition quite like this one...

And I haven't actually seen the designed file yet, it should be hitting my desk next week to start the proofreading process, which shouldn't take long since both manuscripts were super clean, of course. I will confirm when I know that count!

Best,
Brian

Correct. I think Mindy is holding one or two copies for collectors who are working on their payment, though.

So Cemetery Dance wants $4000 for a book that's likely years away from being published...

That certain tiny cramped signature really does hold a lot of power! Even knowing you won't be able to hold it in your hands for years.

Did enough that 52 people bought it. I did. And word is by end of this year… in hand.

Very excited about Thus bad boy!! Plus the artist is one of my favs!!

[richardsrarebooks]

Well, on March 9th 2018 I paid $1,500 for the lettered editionof "Fright or Flight" and am still waiting for that elusive "third person" to sign the book. Sure hope I see it by the end of the year but I doubt it.

Well no doubt. A new lettered edition with Kings sig. It's definitely going to sell no matter the price.

I'm just speaking for myself personally. I'd be reluctant to buy a book from Cemetery Dance for thousands of dollars knowing it could be years before I have the book in hand.

Although I say this knowing my financial situation and not being able to have that amount of money stuck in limbo for who knows how long. I'm sure a lot of the people who are purchasing the lettered are already financially well off so it's not as big of a deal to them.

[ajw2910]

Yeah, if I had an extra $4k I would be going after a couple other S/L’s on my list!!!! I guess if I had all of them then I would pursue this, but alas…….

[playdohman]

If this new lettered is supposedly to be in hand by end of this year, does that mean the other King lettereds, Flight or Fright (Mar 2018) Gwendy's Final Task (Apr 2021) and Night Shift (last update Dec 21), will be in hand as well, before this new one? These three are just scratching the surface of the huge prepaid backlog.

[Splync]

Too rich for my blood, but congrats to those who snagged a lettered!

[ICry4Oy]

Glad I'm not collecting any more!

[Stockerlone]

It is probably the English language HC first edition of A face in the Crowd,
the German HC edition was published in 2013.

It's unfair for Bev to hold-on everybody




(just teasing bev )

[herbertwest]

I was obviously not in the market for the lettered edition, but I personally found a shame that the product page didn't have any prototype pictures / idea/mockup project in order to show what the copy may look like in the end
Same with the artist edition. Wouldn't it be better than just showing the cover?

If end of this year would be very cool. But even if not, I wouldn't personally have a problem waiting in the queue for a book that promises high production value, original art, and a King sig.

[mcbanick]

I'm also somewhat surprised the AE still hasn't sold out...
