Thank you, I had not seen that. Seeing the Krish book on video shows me that it shares production values with the 3 pack I received. That also helps me know that it is not a fluke and I can ignore future CD offerings.

Just out of curiosity, and since I didn't receive either the 3-pack or Husks, what is the issue in terms of quality that you see? I'm on the fence with a few on the recent LE announcements from CD, but if they are going to be of a lower quality, than I'd probably spend my money elsewhere. Curious to hear what you think.

Thank you. I was hoping those were an anomaly. It is becoming clear that the CD I loved is no more. It was a good run.

I'd say it's the same.

Husks was part of CDCC 10. Mine is coming next week. I have a question for those who have received this and also the recent three pack. Is this edition of higher quality than the three pack books?

Mine arrived today, 2 weeks after getting a shipping notice, lol. It just sat waiting to be picked up until a few days ago. I'm glad they are finally getting some movement on all of these CDCC books that we are owed....I have no idea how many are outstanding, but it seems like it'd be a lot. I feel like this must have been a mystery book, because it isn't something that I would have wanted, but, all these years later, who knows?

I washed my hands of Cemetery Dance years ago and asked for a refund on all of my orders, so I was genunely shocked when this showed up in the mail today. It must be one of those limited editions for the CD Collectors Club that I had given up hope of ever being published. Did anyone else get one?

I got it yesterday. It was a CDCC bonus book that I'd long forgotten about. I didn't have it on my order spreadsheet.

It definitely wasn't part of the 2018 forthcoming grab bag, because I got those books already.

I am going to be asking Mindy about those CD Club books soon.

I aim to have a full update for every item on the page in April, if not before! I know Rich circulated an email on what he plans for the limited line's first six months of the year, and those are definitely the priority at the moment--The Stand, Face in the Crowd Lim/Lettered, GMF Lettered, GFT Limited, Little Boy, Shocklines and one or two others? Maybe a GYE? I know the Koryta book is supposed to be shipping our way currently--but even if it's a "everything is the same, no new info available" I'll ask around regarding each item on the page

For Billy Summers, I'm still waiting on an update that's never come. No new information currently. Will ask folks. Have a new slipcase manufacturer I'm trialing out for Face in the Crowd, since slipcases seem to be a huge speedbump for us. They work pretty fast and their sample was very good and everything is paid for. Fingers crossed that avenue opens up for future things!

As for Dark Masques, I can't find much of anything here. If that's the case and it is lost due to dead contracts and time, something *must* be subbed in for it. I will see what I can figure out regarding, and what options we have available to substitute.Â

Here we are 17 years later and still nothing about Dark Masques. It's tough to continue to defend CD when its detractors consistently point out books that have been paid for that either never materialize or take 10 or more years to finally show up.

Can we PLEASE get something done about this missing book ... give everyone that ordered some store credit or something just don't ignore the fact that we paid good money for this book and have been waiting 17 years!

Thanks.

I saw that email from CD as well and am very close to pulling the trigger as I've always enjoyed Hodge's work, the price is very fair at $60, and that cover artwork is very cool. One question that I have, and maybe I'm blind, but did you notice a limitation for the book listed anywhere on the order page? I saw that they listed it as a LE and mentioned it being a one-time printing but I didn't see the number of copies anywhere. Just curious.

No, you are correct. I did not see a limitation noted for the book, either.

Don't really know where to post this and don't know if I want to start a thread, but I am very excited about the new Brian Hodge collection that CD just announced. I'm bummed that this might be his last, but will happy to have this in my hands once it's published.
