Centipede will be releasing.....

Anyone know how much next week's Straub title is going to be? I recall seeing it listed in a previous newsletter but cannot seem to find it.

The last estimate from Jerad was $275, but a final price had yet to be determined. I hope we get it on Sunday

I grabbed a copy as well, and was similarly pleased to see that price drop...I went to bed last night thinking, damn, I'm going to have to spend nearly $300 tomorrow morning, so to see that reduction was a nice surprise. After finally seeing the details, it looks like it's going to be one helluva package as well.

Agreed.

Based on the newsletters over the last 6 months or so, I was expecting the book to be around $300.

Pleasantly surprised to see the book at $225.

I wonder if the limitation number was raised.

Isn’t 750 a large limitation for a Centipede Press title?

Looking forward to the Weird Tales anthology that Centipede announced today. Pleased to see that it was a little bit cheaper than I imagined it was going to be. Still not cheap at $225, but I thought it was going to be closer to $300.

Yep, been waiting for this one as well. Nice that it's already in stock and shipping immediately, too!

This another half forgotten, paperback original title from unlikely publisher, The Playboy Press. Editor, Ray Russell, was a horror author himself and published some really good and eclectic titles like (I believe) Blood Innocents, Closed Circle, the Russ Martin series and some Charles Grant anthologies. This might make a nice research article for Weird Fiction Review. Thanks

I have actually given thought to Playboy Press for my CtMM in WFR, but the interview-heavy, collectible-focused approach I like to utilize wouldn’t work, unfortunately. But it’s interesting that you mention author/editor Ray Russell…he’s someone who certainly deserves attention.

I have the original paperback 1st of it which I still haven’t read, even though I’ve had it for many years, so I think in this case I’m going to hold off on the Centipede reprint. Probably save my pennies for next week.

I ended up splurging too! Nessie & druids, sign me up!

Nice! In fact- I just received it. And, it has all the cool vibes I suspected. Also, it is HEAVILY illustrated. I mean, there's a lot!

[sholloman81]

I splurged on the Spruill book- even though I'd never heard of it until today- purely because of my inner child's love and awe for the Loch Ness Monster. I'm sure many of us older folks remember In Search Of? And, it just has really good vibes. Neat!

I have not—and I’ve never even heard of it before this release— but I’m excited to read this one.Â

Me too, it sounds bonkers! I think I'm going to pre-order.

Anyone ever read "Hellstone" by Steven Spruil? Thinking of picking this one up and am hoping that someone can push me over the edge. Also, just noticed that SubPress has a pre-order for it available even though Centipede hasn't announced yet.
