Yep. It's a nice looking book. I'm pleased with it.
It's hard for me to comment on price because I don't think I've come to grips with the current economy. :-)
It's comparable to other publishers and Midworld is certainly on my publishers to buy from list. Some of their titles aren't to my taste but I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them in the future. I did order a copy of Blacktop Wasteland from them and still thinking about Ring Shout. Blacktop Wasteland for the story and Ring Shout mainly for the art.

I am still hopeful there is a change to this before production.

Too true. I bought BW in spite of the dj art, certainly not because of it. It’s really too bad, as there was such an opportunity to have something truly noirish and dark and midwestern American to befit the work, but instead it almost suggests a video game which I think tends to undermine the serious themes of the novel.Looking for the fonting of youth.

I see another pre-order up for MidWorld. Not really my favorite subject matter but I like the price point. I may give this a go.

I did end up ordering TATR but that was a put off for me as well. However I was very interested in the artwork. At the end of the day I was happy to have made the purchase.
Still haven't pre-ordered this current offering. I probably will not but time will tell.

That being said, I do completely support any author's choice to do whatever they want with their art and am happy I could find another title by this author to try instead.Looking for the fonting of youth.

A few weeks ago, I placed my first order - Ring Shout from P. Djeli Clark.
Not sure where I first heard about this author (I know I have a free eBook of his - perhaps from Tor's monthly free ebook email . . .) and I remember coming across a new/used paperback of this book but I didn't buy it. AND while cataloging our book collection, I realized my wife has one of his books (Black God's Drums - it's still amazing to me when our book collections cross paths ...)
Looking forward to having a nice signed edition from yet another author I've never read. But mean to.
