That was basically how I felt. I looked at it, read a few reviews, thought about it, and realized I have no attachment to this book or story. However there is a $150 lettered, of a story I love, from an author that I like, which I keep not buying because I had become sidetracked by purchases like this. Trying really hard to get this lettered and bypass spontaneous purchases.

I'm passing as well. I'm sure it's a good novel, but I can't afford to be spending on $100 on random titles these days...Looking for the fonting of youth.

I certainly feel that way as well. One of the few times I've actually caught a title before they are sold out or one that is at a price point I could consider.
Oh well. Passing on it as Fantasy isn't really in my wheel house these days.

I did go for it after hearing that Dune won't be out until at least the last week of August. The other thing that swayed me was that Jerad hopes to publish the sequel. Apparently it was written, but never published, and if the author likes the treatment of the first book, and I guess the response from the collector world, he may let Jerad publish the next book.

The only disappointment within those I'd need is the price of the letterpress Klein...that's far more than I'd anticipated, and will likely be a Centipede Press book that I'd really like but just simply can't afford. I've been able to balance cost and need pretty successfully up 'til now -- justifying splurges and/or talking myself out of book(s) that I'd like but don't need -- but this one I need but simply can't justify the price to myself, not with a 1st ed. HC on my shelf already and PS promising at some point down the road a signed/ltd. HC to match THE CEREMONIES. I do think it's pretty damn cool that Jerad is doing a high-quality letterpress edition of it in a very small (100) limitation -- it's neat to see stuff like that be done -- but it will likely remain something I'll have to appreciate from afar.
