    It was a pass for me as well. Too many other recent or forthcoming releases that I need to prepare to purchase. In terms of readability, I think they had issues with some of their first/earlier titles. I believe they squared that away as I haven't noticed anything with their more recent releases. In fact, I received and read Ring Shout a few months ago and the production values and readability were perfect!

    I don’t care for fantasy either, so skipped this one and all the other very popular, recent fantasy releases from various publishers. I’m actually glad that I don’t collect fantasy, because the prices and output these days are considerable.

    I jumped on it. I think Glen Cook is a great writer. I enjoyed the Series years ago, hoping they will do the whole set.

    No. I'm not into fantasy anymore and hadn't read this book and/or series. I've only bought two books from them and one was nice and readable and the other had bright white paper. So my sample size is not large.

    Not me. I'm not really into the genre, so I wouldn't buy something like this without having read it first. There was another series that was being hyped up last year (Prince of Thorns was the first book, I think), but after I read it I really had no interest in reading the next book.

    I'm afraid my TBR pile has turned into a TBR room. I think I skipped the TBR shelf even . . .

    A few weeks ago, my first MidWorld book was delivered - Ring Shout by P. Djeli Clark.

    And by delivered, the Post Office said it was, but it really wasn't. Gave it a few days, filed a claim. Nothing. Contacted MidWorld to see if maybe I could get a replacement copy (maybe for a discount?) but they sent a new one for no charge.

    When that one was delivered, it was actually delivered.

    Looks like a nice production, just have to get around to reading it.

    Awesome! While I haven't liked everything I've read by Carey, The Girl with All the Gifts is a special book and a limited edition that I would definitely want to own! Hope this comes to pass.

    If that comes to pass, I’ll finally have to pull the trigger on one of their books. That’s a great book and I’m a big fan of Carey’s work.

    So, I contacted Midworld inquiring about the JDatE release, and they said that they're aiming for Q1 '23, hopefully March. Signed and limited, cover art by M. K. Komins. They also have a contract for Spiders. I signed up for their newsletter, and I hope to hear more from them
