Centipede will be releasing.....

I've actually never ready anything by Masterson. He's one of those authors that I've always meant to get around to reading but just never did. Also didn't help that for the longest time, I confused him with Graham Joyce. Â

AW, you've gotta read THE MANITOU!

I received mine this last Friday.  It’s a pretty nice edition.  I was looking to post some pictures, but it’ll have to wait a few more days.  I’m hoping that I’ll like this one more than my last Masterton read, which was a real stinker.

I splurged and pre-ordered a copy of The Hell Candidate yesterday.  This one has been on my radar for a while; so, I'm glad it's shipping soon!

Same. I’ve read a number of Masterton titles, but not this one.

I’m displaying mine the same way. Â In fact, I’ve begun doing that with more and more of my Centipede books.

I only have a handful of Centipede titles, and this is actually the first like that.

My copy has arrived, and I agree with your assessment. I am not a big fan of slip cased books that do not have the title treatment on the dustjacket, but this one has great title treatment on the slipcase. I just have to display it backward on the shelf.

My copy is just leaving Denver tonight, so it may get here by the weekend.

Received my GHOST STORY today. In a word: Stunning. I have to say I was nervous that the high price point wouldn't justify the end product, but, it exceeded what I expected. It's on the level of A MOUNTAIN WALKED, which is one of the best-looking books I have on my shelf. It's really gorgeous. It was a stiff purchase (for me these days), but I am now relieved that I ponied up. It's going to be a "classic" CP book.

I received mine on Friday and I have to agree with your assessment. It really is a beautiful book. I will say that I wish it matched Centipede's edition of JULIA a little bit more--JULIA has the title on the book spine, GHOST STORY pulls a Thunderstorm Black Voltage and just has continued dustjacket art; JULIA's slipcase is plain, GHOST STORY has title, embossing, and inset art akin to, but not the same as, THE CLUB DUMAS--mostly because it would look better on the shelf together. But I'm viewing them as a set and Jerad probably was not. It is a VERY minor quibble for what is another great Centipede edition. Maybe I'll get some pictures posted over the next day or two.

Now, I'm looking forward to SHADOWLAND! And I kinda wish that Jerad would give us a new complete set of the Blue Rose books. Heck, just give me a complete Peter Straub Library!

Great to hear that. My copy is not scheduled to arrive until Thursday but is already one state away. At this point I expect to see it Monday afternoon.

Received my shipping notice for Ghost Story. Should be here by Tuesday. I'm very much looking forward to seeing this one in person.

Was there a newsletter this weekend?  Don't recall seeing one.

Definitely not, according to Facebook. I figured there'd be nothing to order, as Jerad didn't mention anything in the last newsletter.

[sholloman81]

Don't believe so. I didn't receive one either.

Thanks, was hoping that was the case!
