Happy to report that I got my replacement for Carrie today -- with no bites out of it!

That's great news. I never doubted for a second that CD would make it right.

I got my copy of the AE edition! All the advance pictures I've seen of this book have been nice, but, man, when you see it in person it is really impressive. An incredibly nice production. Fantastic job, CD!

+1, it is a really nice book.

Received my AE today. Really top notch!

Got any pics for us?

Absolutely stunning. The style looks somewhat similar to the lettered edition of Faithful.

Gorgeous! Now why didn't I order a copy!
(I know- I thought it was too expensive at the time. Still do, I guess, but it's one beautiful edition. To those who did order: congratulations!!)

Here's the official update for Lettered Artist Edition of CARRIE:

The Lettered Artist Edition books are nearly finished at the hand-binder and we’re extremely pleased with how they’ve turned out. This edition features a “three piece” binding of leather and Japanese book cloth, hand-made spine hubs, hand-gilded page edges, and other fine touches to make the edition truly special.

Now that the books are nearly done, the traycase maker is preparing the prototype for the traycase. We’ve never made a traycase exactly like this before, and each one will be sized by hand to fit the book. We think our collectors will be very pleased with the final presentation.

Since the process of making the cases will take at least a few months, we thought you might like to see two quick photos of the first Lettered Artist Edition book the binder sent us for our approval:

We're sending an email update to the CARRIE Lettered Artist Edition preorder customers right now that includes two photos. If you ordered this edition from us, you should receive the email soon. Send me a message if you don't see it in the next 60 minutes or so. I'll post the photos online for everyone after our direct customers have seen them.

It is looking like next Thursday for my copies of Carrie!

Yeah, not good for Carrie, but if this were Cujo, then yeah, you got a collector's item.

**spits coffee on to self**
Guess everyone should page through their books, but likely a weird fluke.

[jsweet]

That is odd. Contact Mindy, we'll get you a replacement sent out. Unfortunately this is the one downside to having them slipcased at the manufacturer. It means we can't really catch things like this before sending it out to you guys. That said I'm not sure I would've caught that, as I can't imagine it's all that noticeable unless you are paging through the book.

Thanks, will do. And yes, I didn't notice it until I started paging through the book, so would have been easy to miss.
