Buy the Fall now and try to get The Strain later. It is a beautiful book. I would like to know if all three of them are going to match up and look the same or what the thinking might be about them.
All three will have a similar style -- the scheme for the binding and stamping, etc, will be similar, for example, although the stamping itself will be a little different for each book to match the design of the book's signature sheets and the title page, etc.

This will be my third Lonely Road publication! Looking forward to it.
I've also been thinking about The Fall, but I too missed out on The Strain and don't think I can afford both right now.
Stepping away from the computer to self punch myself in the face for not getting this one!
Totally want a Lonely Road book! Had a chance for The Fall, but decided to pass since I don't have The Strain. (or enough money to get it off the after market + The Fall)
"The book is designed and being proofread now. We're still right on track for a summer publication date.
As I mentioned last time, originally I planned on having 6 color artwork plates in this special edition, but Caniglia went overboard and turned in 13 (!) color pieces, so I'm breaking the budget and adding all of them to the book.
In addition, Mr. Blatty has provided an introduction and an afterword that won't be appearing in any other edition, so those have been added to the Lonely Road Books special edition as an unannounced bonus.
Finally, there's also a special unannounced bonus for the Lettered Edition customers: because Caniglia turned in so much extra artwork, there will be entirely different artwork on the Lettered Edition's dust jacket.
I'll post more news as I have it, but you can also always email me if you have any questions."
