The Listener by Robert McCammon

[Dan Hocker]

Books are here. Should start shipping tomorrow. I expect it to go pretty quickly though.

Got my copy from Alabama Booksmith today. Also got Headhunter.

I got two separate shipping notices for the trade edition. I’m hoping it’s an error and one is really the limited.

It's not the limited. The slipcases for the limiteds still have to be created.

EDIT: I see that Brian stated that earlier in the thread.

Hunter

[TacomaDiver]

I remember that now. Thanks.

Do wonder why I got two different notices. Maybe it’s to make up for the occasional shipment that just arrives with no notice. Hmmmm ...

If you indeed receive two copies of the trade edition, and would be interested in a trade, let me know. I just redid my shelving and I have quite a stack of books that I could offer up to swap. I have the SST edition on order, but am tired of waiting and would just really like to read the thing.

[TacomaDiver]

Will do!!

Well I did in fact receive two copies. I’m not sure how I messed that up but I did, so let me know and let’s see if we can work something out.

Great! Sending you a PM shortly.

[Marmaduke Grigsby]

Any word on the progress of the slipcases for the signed/limited edition of The Listener?

[Marmaduke Grigsby]

Still on schedule for early summer!

I didn't know the approximate ETA. Good to know. Thanks!

Finished THE LISTENER; I liked it very much. I don't know that I'd say it lived up the pre-pub hype, but I think it did so better than THE BORDER and I thought it was quite good...really enjoyed it. I'd label it mid-grade McCammon, better than some of his others, not quite up to par with his classics (e.g. WOLF'S HOUR, SWAN SONG, BOY'S LIFE, et al).

[Tommy]

I need to read The Wolf's Hour, so many TBRs!

WOLF’S HOUR is so good. That and SWAN SONG are his best.

[Tommy]

WOLF’S HOUR is so good. That and SWAN SONG are his best.

OK, I feel like I'm in a safe space here so I will go ahead and admit....I haven't read Swan Song yet either. Please don't judge!
