Midworld Press...

[Sock Monkey]

Well, crud. Midworld just mentioned that they will be opening up preorders for M.R. (Mike) Carey's The Girl With All the Gifts soon. I guess they are dead set on getting me to buy one of their books. Frankly, I'm surprised that it's taken this long for the book to get the limited treatment. I figured this would have been right in Sub Press's wheelhouse.

I don't have Facebook so was unable to watch, but my understanding from a tweet I saw, if accurate, is that it's planned for release around November or December of this year. That seems rather ambitious, but we'll see. I'm afraid I have no idea on the pre-order date, but my guess is that price point will be similar to their other releases, around a hundred bucks.

Thanks, Ron!

i absolutely loved WOUNDS when I read it recently and I’m glad that it’s getting the limited treatment. This looks to be the book that will knock me off the sidelines and actually purchasing a book from Midworld.

i didn’t have any opportunity to watch the whole video. Was there any specifics about preorder date, price point, etc.? The feel I got was that this is pretty early in production.

Well, I was way off-base. It's WOUNDS, his second collection. Kind of excited about it, actually, as I never did pick that particular book up. Looks like fate has stepped in in the guise of Midworld Press to fix that problem.

I've heard a lot of good things about this one and have never read it, so am very tempted...other publishers' releases and a pricetag of $100 is giving me pause, though. Going to have to think about this one.

Also, that upcoming announcement about Nathan Ballingrud -- I'm currently reading his recent first full-length novel, THE STRANGE...I wonder if that's the book they're doing a limited of. Figures that'd happen right after spending $30 for the trade 1st HC...oh well, my copy is a nicely inscribed (to me) copy, will probably just let that suffice for my collection...probably.

  I thought about Money Run, but in the end, I passed.

No idea what to expect as I’d never heard of the series nor the author, but the reviews I read make it sound very intriguing, and I wanted to support Paul’s most recent foray into crime(ish)!fiction. I’m usually not nearly this impulsive, but for whatever reason I was this morning. Hope my gamble pays off.

So I agonize over Davidson’s book, one that’s received a lot of acclaim and I’ve wanted to read for some time, for a week or two and still remain undecided, but then take a quick flyer on the (even more expensive) Thunderstorm offering this morning, THE MONEY RUN, a series of books that I’ve never even heard about but which sounded very interesting.

Sigh, sometimes I frustrate me.

I think I’m the only person that read In the Valley of the Sun that didn’t like it.

MIDWORLD does seem to be doing a ton of retreats on THE STRANGE

[mhatchett]

Remember when standard limited editions would only set you back like $40-50? It feels like the majority of titles been produced are $100+ now. It's really making me think twice about picking up titles by authors I haven't read before.

  And $100.00 almost feels like a deal HAHA!!

  I hope it's North American Lake Monsters
