This conversation makes me regret not ordering this one. Guess it is another I have to find on the secondary market.

I can only imagine what it will be like in a beautiful traycase... Mmmm.

I read Legion when it released and in it was the blurb about how the novels were meant to be read right after each other. A year later I read The Exorcist. For years I had a paperback of each. Now that I have this stunning edition, I was able to read them both as one novel. I particularly enjoyed Brian's "Conversation with WPB"; a fitting coda to a magnificent edition. Kudos all around to every one involved!!!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the production values of this book. The stories are fantastic and it looks good to boot!

I think that just shows why CD does so well. People can tell it's being run by people who are really fans of the genre themselves and love the books as much as we do.

I would check out EBay or Amazon marketplace (usually Ebay is better, but have found some stuff cheaper on Amazon). I know I saw at least a couple copies of this book go for a lot cheaper than I would sell mine if I ever did.

For anybody debating tracking down this title, it is VERY WORTH the effort. It's a stunning oversize title. Great art and production values!!

A Note From the Author:
"I have for many years envisioned The Exorcist and Legion to be one continuous read, even though the former is a fact-based, clearly 'religious thriller,' while the story of Legion delivers more excitingly on the level of a pure 'entertain-ment.' Never-the-less, it is Legion and not The Exorcist that is by far the more ambitious work in that the demonic homicides that police Lt. Kinderman is investigating are of much lesser concern to him than solving that case of cosmic homicide that for eons, and for so many and for so long, has been the foremost stumbling block to belief in a benevolent Creator, namely the so-called 'Problem of Evil,' to which Legion brazenly offers a solution."
