So SGJ's "Mt Heart is a Chainsaw" sold out pre-announcement and thus never got announced. Since it had not been announced, I would have expanded the print run by a few hundred to help meet unexpected demand. Looks like Camelot and Bad Moon never got allotted copies, or they also sold out pre-announcement. DRP had 7 copies when I got there, was sold out soon after.

I wonder why there has been no further word on this for a week. I managed to snag a copy from DRP before they were gone there too.

Are we allowed to talk about the ultra-quick sellout that just happened? I waited and missed out on a copy.

Same here. Was away for the weekend and I missed it.

I have two I've never read sitting on my shelf.

I believe you have one I read as it came from NRB. What I have read has been highly praised and I so wanted to like. They just never found their way out of mediocrity. With every new release I think that it sounds interesting and reviews are positive. I ponder giving it a go and then remember what I have read. I have come to believe this are just an author I do not click with.

My previous readings from the author did not meat my expectations so I am passing.

Very happy with today's advance pre-order notice that was sent to the newsletter subscribers and LOVE that price-point for it. I immediately purchased a copy. Wish I could write more about it, but, Paul has asked us to wait until it is officially announced to everyone.

I just ordered two more books from SST - about $110 for both, after shipping - which is a GREAT deal, especially when you factor in the shipping costs. Admittedly, I feel guilty at times using SST's discount codes, but Paul tosses them in every order, and I shouldn't feel guilty about it.

My copy should be here soon. And I agree, really loving what SST's doing and for the price it's a bargain!

I hear ya', but, I really try to keep the price points in perspective: I think $50 (ish) is a very fair price for these books. I think most other publishers lately have been frustratingly overpriced. I really do mean that, getting some publishing quotes myself recently. Paul has maintained these sane prices because he is truly a one man operation. He's been going gangbusters lately, though, and I hope he doesn't burn himself out!.

Just received my copy of Mongrels from SST. Another amazing production by them. Love the cover and interior art for this one. No idea how they can offer books this good looking/well designed at this price-point but am glad that they do! Am very happy to have this on my shelf next to their edition of The Only Good Indians. Hope that they continue their recent trend of publishing limited editions for Stephen Graham Jones and publish a limited for My Heart Is A Chainsaw next. Will definitely be purchasing it if they do!

[sholloman81]

Just got my shipping notice as well! Am very excited about this book. Hope SST keeps up the limited edition treatment for Stephen Graham Jones' books!

Just received a shipping notice for SGJ's Mongrels - Paul is on fire! I hope he has help with shipping. Sometimes SST books get to NY faster than Thunderstorm books.

Based on the Tremblay books they've published and will be publishing, it's probably a safe bet that we'll see more from Hendrix and SGJ.
