    Anybody familiar with Grabinksi’s work?
    I have the Ash Tree collection, and decided that was adequate for me. Been mulling this one over for the last week, but am content with my decision…mostly. He’s quite good, so it was a difficult choice to make.

    Somebody else pointed out that CP does about 25 books a year, so yes, it will be a long and winding road lol!! Push, Jerad always drops a few surprise titles, so we will see.

    I've almost bought this twice since the newsletter. Think I'm passing but I will regret it later. I hadn't read this book but sounds like something I would get a kick out of.

    He missed one: I recall a newsletter (?) mention of a MotWT volume of Joseph Payne Brennan. As a huge JPB fan, that mention was burned on my memory, and I hope each week it’ll be up for order…so far, no luck, but I’ll be there for a copy when it is.

    Hi Everybody, Hope you are having nice Easter Monday. A friend of mine over at the Centipede Press Collectors page, Logan Giannini, put in a lot of work to compile of list projected upcoming Centipede releases.

    Yeah, both of those are pretty hard to find. I mean, you can get them at Camelot, but THE FAR CRY is a cool grand. THE PLASTIC NIGHTMARE is reasonable in comparison at $495, but those are both at the high end of the market price. Older Centipede Press books are popping up with a little more frequency in the aftermarket now, so I'm sure that these will turn up. Hopefully at a price that fits your budget!
    Thanks -- from your lips to the Book Gods ears. I try not to kick myself for passing on them initially -- I have the Black Lizard paperbacks, I thought, why do I need another edition? -- but it gets tough when the books are so damned expensive now. Ah well, live and learn.

    THE FAR CRY by Fredric Brown.

    Oh, and I was incorrect...there are two crime titles I still need: The other one is THE PLASTIC NIGHTMARE by Richard Neely.

    Both of these titles are incredibly scarce...no idea if I'll ever have a shot at either, but I remain hopeful.

    Thanks. It wasn’t too bad…more than I would’ve preferred to pay, but less than what I’ve seen other copies go for (on those very rare occasions when they pop up), so in that Happy Medium range, I suppose. Definitely thrilled to have this one in hand, and looking forward to reading all that supplemental short fiction, might even revisit the novel. This was the Big One for me.

    I think that only leaves one Centipede crime title that I still need, so I guess that’s now Number One with a Bullet. But if it never happens I’ll still sleep contentedly with this Fisher volume on my shelf.

    I picked up another — quite possibly my (older) Centipede grail — a few days ago…should see that one in a week or so.
