All Things Earthling Publications

Did anybody pick up the Jeffrey Thomas title? I was a little on the fence, but the low ($35!) price point helped me take the gamble. With all the high price points that seem to be dominating right now, I was very happy to see a lower price point title.

I'm also curious as to what the next lettered edition is going to be. I'm sure that I'll be priced out since Earthling's lettered edition price points have increased, but I'm always curious as to what it might be.

I picked up the Thomas title also.

I really like his stories set in Punktown and Hades.

His other works not set in those two worlds I’ve found to be more hit or miss, but I find he’s still an author worth taking a chance on.

He’s also written some good Lovecraftian stories, though based on the description his new book it seems to be more of a ghost story.

$3K and it looks lovely.

You nailed that price point! The book does look beautiful. At that price, though, even if I LOVED the book, I couldn’t make it happen.

I have the Centipede Press PUNKTOWN books in the TBR pile. I real need to get around to them. I’m also curious about his HADES books and I’m kinda mad at myself for not picking up the new signed editions from Weird House.

Anyways, I haven’t read anything from Thomas yet, but the description intrigued me and the price point sealed the deal. If it was like $50 or more, I probably would’ve hesitated on pulling the trigger.

 Earthling is having a Halloween sale today. I picked up the Sarah Pinborough Halloween book for half off, and a scratch and dent Michael Marshall Smith collection for seven bucks.

Nice haul! I have both and they are great reads, especially at those prices!

Nice! I almost swung for a title or two, but more frugal and responsible minds prevailed. There's been a lot of books coming out lately and the old wallet is bouncing back as fast!

[Ben Staad]

Me too. I had things in my cart twice but never completed the transaction.

I was able to snag a copy of Jeff Strand's "Pressure" via the Earthling newsletter for $25! This will be my first read by Strand. One of those authors whose name I've heard a lot but never actually read. Hope I end up liking it!

Congrats! I saw that newsletter and was tempted, but ultimately decided to pass.  You used to be able to find the limited of PRESSURE all over the place and for pretty darn cheap. Not so much anymore.

I loved it. It was my first exposure to Strand’s work, and I’ve been a fan ever since. Keep in mind, though, it is a little atypical of his work in that there is very little humor to be found.

I'm actually glad to hear this.  I'm rarely looking for humor in my horror reads unless it's incidental which is why I think I've steered clear of his stuff in the past.  Perhaps this will be the book to make me dive deeper into his previous stuff.

It's my understanding we should be on the lookout for an Earthling newsletter. I think it would be today but I'm not 100% certain on that.

I received it this morning. I'm especially excited since I purchased Gothic directly from Earthling. Always nice not to have to stress out about a book that is going to quickly sell-out.

I received the newsletter as well. While I wasn't blown away by Gothic, I enjoyed it enough to give this new one a shot. Similar to sholloman, I purchased Gothic directly through Earthling so the preorder window will be nice.
