Centipede will be releasing.....

[RonClinton]

I'm as broke as hell, but I couldn't pass up the new edition of 'Salem's Lot. My criteria for limited editions these days is "Can I get this in any other form?" If it's a novel, and I know an e-book is coming, I'll go that route. But for something like this, and PS's MIDNIGHT MOVIE MONOGRAPHS, where the limited is probably the only way to get it, I feel like I have no choice. I'm kicking myself for spending $200.00, but, man.....Centipede can really bring the production values. The book feels like it weighs 10 lbs, the paper is amazing, the photos and artwork are perfectly reproduced...It's a gorgeous book. If anyone ever asked me "How could you spend X amount of dollars on a book?:, this would be the one I took out to show them.

Don't tell my wife how much I spent.

Save some money for next week...if the schedule holds, the new issue of WEIRD FICTION REVIEW is releasing on Saturday, and anyone who's been around the genre scene for a while will likely find my new "Collecting the Modern Macabre" feature of interest.

My copy shipped in the same box as Night Train and The Best of Weird. I'm a little worried about how heavy that box will be, haha!

I picked up the new 'Salem's Lot book today. Anyone else?

Definitely. Been waiting for this one, as I sold my trade paperback years ago after Jerad said he would be doing an updated version. It's crazy how expensive those older trade paperbacks of Studies In The Horror Film had gotten. I'm sure that film geeks discovering them- who are not necessarily small press book collectors- have been an huge part of that. Incidentally, I remember Jerad used to toss those in as extras with book orders: I must have ended up with 4 'Exorcist's' at one point, ended up donating to my book store. Wish I still had them now! The new SL looks fabulous and can't wait to get it.

Very nice. I will not be picking this one up but it looks awesome.

Just received my copy of "Night Train". Jared did another bang-up job with this one. It looks great!

I'm holding out for the 'Salem's Lot book on Sunday, and I'm sure I'll be getting a bill for the next Dune book soon.

I passed on the Monteleone book, but did pick up the two volume Algernon Blackwood set from the week before.

Looks like a great story. I guess I didn't get the email on this one.

Anybody grab a copy of "Night Train" this weekend? It sounds fun and the price isn't too bad; so, I took a chance and ordered a copy. Have never read it before but assume that I will like it as I haven't had a Centipede book let me down yet!

[Dave1442397]

When Centipede does a reasonably-priced book, I'm always tempted, and I almost bit on this one, but then I remembered some of the hate Monteleone was spewing all over the place a while back, and I decided that I just can't put a single penny in this idiot's pocket.

And besides that, his own press spits out books with an incredible number of typos. I would hope Jerad has proofreaders who would catch the errors, but you never know.

Anyway, I decided not to buy it...it's just not a book I have a lot of interest in, and there are plenty of expensive titles coming this year.

I did and I'm pretty excited for it. I know that the "big ticket" items like Dune get the most attention, but my true love for Centipede is all the smaller, and often offbeat, titles they put out. Those are my jam and this one seems to fit the bill.

Shadowland arrived this morning and, to be completely honest, I might actually like this presentation more than the limited of Ghost Story. The boards on the book are just gorgeous and I really like the interior art and design. The only drawback, and the area that the Ghost Story limited trumps this one, is the lack of an authentic Straub signature. It's a very minor quibble for what is a stupendous edition. As a Straub fan, I'm happy to see his work continue to get honored in this fashion.
