I havent finished looking through all my Steven King books yet. Scared to look at anymore. Each one I open pages are marked on.. have to look carefully because sometimes only one page is written on and can be easily missed...still have another 40 or so King books to go through.
    Sheez- you really should have unloaded the dishwasher that one night...

    Seriously, I am sorry for your loss. Not the woman but the collection. That is horrible.

    Did you get Gauntlet Press reissue edition? It had a really nice optional slipcase with Bradbury art on it.

    That just sucks dude. What she did is wrong on so many levels and I feel your pain. Best of luck and hang in there.

    Can't wait to get my hands on A Dark & Bloody Ground by Ronald Kelly!

    Of course, I'll have to wait 'til 2012, as he's still writing it...

    But he says that it will be published by...Cemetery Dance!

    Corfimation? Denial? Not comment?

    Ouch!!!

    And I thought losing an original "The Empire Strikes Back" movie poster to a vindictive...hmmm...was bad.

    I can appreciate the 30 years of collecting King's work. I've done the same thing...

    Damn!

    Wow. I'd suggest taking her to court for that. I'd suggest destroying things she values too but that could result in issues with the law lol

    Actually I'm looking to purchase almost all the 1st editions of Stephen King books.

    My wife and I seperarted almost 2 months ago and yesterday I noticed the my gift edition of Lisey's stoty was out of the wrapper so I pick it up took it out of its slip case to find the it was marked all over in permanent marker and pages were ripped out. Then I noticed that The Stand Complete and Uncut was gone and so was Dreamcatcher. Now I was really starting to worry so i started going through my Stephen king books and so far 22 of them have either pages torn out or marked on. Now theses were all first edition hard covers The Stand , Christine, Cujo, Different seasons, It, the bachman books, Thinner, She missed Carrie thank god. Creepshow, Insomnia, Nightshift. and so on most of these books i had before we ever met. I started getting Stephen king book 30 years ago And some of theses I finally got the real first edition instead of the bookclub edition. the shining was the only one i had to get for the real first edition. Now starting all over again. So once my house sells it will be time to start buying again. She also marked over 3 of my Cd books I recently bought . Glad she missed the rest of them ... There done bitching .....
