Same (though I had no issues with A CHILD ALONE WITH STRANGERS). Too small font, too-bright white paper, etc...ultimately, for those of us who do read their limited editions, it's all about the reading experience, and if it's not done right that experience is easily undermined. I picked up Midworld's BLACKTOP WASTELAND when it came out, and after struggling through the reading of that book with its tightly condensed and bold font -- oddest choices I've ever seen in a deluxe edition, and it very literally hurt/strained my eyes to read -- I had to sell it as the reading and collecting experience was awful and I knew there was zero chance I'd ever pick it up again. Sometimes it's the little things that make the biggest impact.Twitter: https://twitter.com/ron_clinton -
It's refreshing to see Brian address this issue head on, and, pledge to keep doing so going forward. As Ron said above- most of us (I hope!) do read our expensive, nice books. Or, hope to anyway! It ain't all about cover art and slipcases. Glad to see the readability aspect implemented.Originally posted by sholloman81 View PostComment

Same, very appreciative. Not sure I would've been able to snag a copy without that early access, given that it sold out in four minutes from public announcement.Originally posted by sholloman81 View PostTwitter: https://twitter.com/ron_clintonComment

Well, I missed out on this one. Guess I’ll keep an eye out on the aftermarket.Comment

My guess is you can track one down with another seller. Good luck to you.

I'm torn on this one. I love NOS4A2 and the whole ethos around the story, but I'm not a graphic novel guy. Not sure which way I'm going to go with this one.Originally posted by sholloman81 View PostTwitter: https://twitter.com/ron_clintonComment

I feel the exact same way. I don't do graphic novels or comics anymore, so a lot of the extras don't hold as much appeal to me. That being said, I have everything else that Hill has published book wise, and it would be nice to keep the Lividian Hill set complete. I'd also love to have the novella, and all that interior art looks amazing; so, much like yourself, I'm feeling a bit torn as to if I will purchase it or not. Really, a part of me is hoping for a quick sell-out to take the decision out of my hands!Originally posted by RonClinton View PostLast edited by sholloman81; Yesterday, 07:40 PM.Comment
