Your spoiler images are blank. Any way you could try reposting? Would love to see what may be announced soon.

They're Cannibal Creator by Chad Lutzke and Depraved 4 by Bryan Smith.

Yeah, these lettered editions are part of a line called Screaming Cacti, which are first offered to members who have access to the Thunderstorm Clubhouse page. The non-traycased editions (like the ones you posted) are limited to only 26 copies with previous buyers of the series having "rights" to the next book. I know that the first two books (Depraved 4 and Life After Dane) sold out pre-publication, but I'm not sure what Paul's plans are for offering them for sale to the general public if they don't sell out via the Clubhouse.

Thanks!

So apparently Thunderstorm is doing lettered books but they're not being announced via the newsletter or the site? I only found out about them because the authors posted them on social media.

I decided against dark kin. Next on the hunt list will be inner demons. Which will probably be another fun one.

I know a couple of the stories appeared in Terror is Out Business - maybe I assumed they were all reprinted elsewhere? I'll inevitably pick it up later, like I do with everything else Lansdale.

I'm trying to remember why I didn't order this one.

I skipped it as well, which is unlike me when it comes to Lansdale. My thinking was that it was five "classic" tales -- that I then must surely have somewhere else in other collections -- with one original novella. His daughter's name was on the cover, so I assumed that original novella, the only content that I didn't have, was a collaboration. Nothing wrong with that, of course, but if I'm paying $125 for, essentially, a novella, I don't want a collaboration work. That was my thinking. If you have regrets on passing on it, it looks like there are copies still available:

Just received my copy of Joe Lansdale's Dark Kin. It turned out amazing. The color scheme/design truly works for this one. The artwork is also top-notch. Also don't mind the lettering on the spine, though it will look a bit odd next to other BV books. Overall, I'm very happy to add this to my Landale collection!

The title is on the spine of the dust jacket? That's bizarre for their titles.

Just received my shipping notice for Dark Kin! Can't wait to see how it turned out! Reminds me that I need to read his new one, The Donut Legion, soon.

There are only 350 copies. Once gone, they're gone...no pre-order period to establish the limitation.

Got it!

If you can find a reasonably priced copy of the aftermarket, you totally need to remedy this! It's a truly batshit book (in the best way). Not sure what it's going for these days, but that Centipede omnibus edition from a few years back was pretty sweet as it included all the books in one place.

I do own the Centipede edition, and I think I may have a paperback of the first (maybe second?) that I was given along with an Landsale auction that I won ages.  So many books; so little time.

[RonClinton]

I read it as a pre-order like he's been doing for a few releases this past year where as long as it was ordered before the deadline you were good....I might be wrong there??

I'm very surprised as well!  Much like yourself, between all those signatures, the Lansdale connection, and then Keene & Golden giving it an extra push to their fanbases, I thought it would sell-out almost instantly, so much so that I kept checking before bed Saturday to be safe and first thing upon waking up Sunday.  Paul's twitter did recently indicate that it is more than three quarters sold-out; so, I would guess a sell-out at some point this week once everyone checks their email from the weekend.  Either way, I'm glad I got my copy pre-ordered.  No way was I missing out on this book!
