True, but for me, the complete inconsistency would somehow make it okay. Almost by discarding the notion of uniformity in its entirety allows the mismatched set to somehow feel complete. While on the other hand, my set would be so close to matching that the number deviation feels more severe. I can't explain why my collector's brain processes it that way, but it does.
No worries, I know *exactly* what you mean. I suspect we’re not the only two around here who would.
It could be worse… I don’t even have the SST editions of either DEVIL ROCK or CABIN (just signed trade 1st HCs) and of course none of my SST books have matching numbers, so it’s a bit of an inconsistent mess.

This was an easy decision for me. I pulled the trigger quickly. There was a lot of buzz around this book when it was first announced so it was on my radar anyways. I might have passed if this was a $135+ Suntup offering, but at SST's super-affordable price point, it was a done deal.
I am kicking myself now that I'm hearing we're getting another Tremblay from SST. I've been getting matching numbers through Camelot, but once we got to the "Sleep" books, I passed as I already had the Thunderstorm editions and just don't like to do multiple editions of books. Now, I that their doing another I might be able to snag a copy, but it won't be my number...

Wasn't me who mention it as I know nothing. I am on the fence, leaning against todays offering as it is not an author or story I know much about. The reasonable price my swing me to give it a try though.
The more I think about it, I think I might’ve been TacomaDiver. Or not. Either way, they are doing PALLBEARERS CLUB, and I hope to snag a copy whenever it’s offered. This new one, though…still not sure yet.
It’s one I’ve always been curious about and have meant to read, but just never got around to it. Haven’t decided yet if this is the edition I need to finally do so.
I was hoping it was going to be THE PALLBEARERS CLUB, but no such luck (yet). Martin (?) mentioned they’d be doing one, and I also personally confirmed with Tremblay last night over Zoom that SST will indeed be doing a limited of it.

Anyone else receive the secret email this morning? Book looks interesting but I hadn't read it. Anyone read this one and is it good?
Yep, I received it too. I am on the fence about it. Book has received a ton of accolades; however, there is just something that has been holding me back from given this author a shot. A part of me is hoping for a quick sell-out!
In terms of Ron's post, I'm glad to hear the Tremblay book is getting the SST treatment. Will be nice to keep the SST Tremblay set going. Hope he can keep the same artist.

Ah! I was wondering just that. Can you tell you about how long ago you received "Exorcism"?
At least a month ago. Shipping from across the pond is hit or miss this year. Its taken me 10 days to 6 weeks to get books from SST once I've received a shipping notification. Paul is very good at helping out with issues like this.
