Theli's Collection

Great collection, Dan - and I fully concur with Brad, Ghost Story is brilliant!!!

I am hoping, Really hoping, that CD release a super deluxe 35th Anniversary edition of Ghost Story this year. That I would jump on before you could say "BOO!!"

A lettered edition of Ghost Story would be a holy grail for me. One of my favorite books of all time. I think that CD should definitely do an anniversary edition.

Really nice books, some great artwork.

That's a cool looking book, Dan!!

And as I mentioned elsewhere, I got; Tobe Hooper's 'Salem's Lot: Studies in the Horror Film, in the mail today. Sewn paperback, with high end glossy paper stock, unsigned, but limited of 3000. I would love the hardcover, but couldn't justify laying down $250 for it, hell even $40 for a paperback is a bit, but once it arrived I know it was worth it. I actually saved a bit ordering from Amazon, $35, no shipping, but I sort of paid for it in the end, it has a few bumps and crinkles from being shipped in an envelope.

Yeah, I would love to get a nice L/E to read of Ghost Story.

Got a couple more nice books in the mail this week:
Brian Lumley's Fly-By-Nights. This is my 3rd Lumley book with Eggleton art, signed by both, leatherbound, textured endpapers, limited of 250, and I got #1

'Hill House' did a limited edition, back in the 80's.
I have the UK 1st edition, which has a really nice wrap-around dust jacket.

Have not read Ghost Story or Swan Song yet, I was pleased to get them for a cheap price.

[bookworm 1]

Great books. Swan Song is great.

Ghost Story is brilliant!!

[Lincoln]

Nice, especially 'I Shudder at Your Touch'.
Have you read 'Ghost Story' before?

^Just finished The Interview With The Vampire a little less than a month ago, a bit of a slog at times, but really rewarding at others. I do like Ms. Rice's flowery language and use of imagery.

Picked up a few books at a book sale a couple weekends ago. A couple vampire novels for the collection, a couple novels I have been meaning to read for a long time, a couple anthologies and the screenplay for the Dracula stage play from the early 1900.


Got a few hardcovers too. Already had the Donaldson books, but I like having a uniform hardcover set. I assume these are from a book club, because I have another hardcover first ed. of The Power That Preserves and it is taller (and way more beaten up). Also picked up I Shudder At Your Touch a cool anthology which I mainly grabbed for the Barker and King stories, but I must admit the titillating title makes it hard to resist.

[T-Dogz_AK47]

That is a great addition to your collection, Dan!!! The Vampire Chronicles are an awesome read - super cool!!!

[srboone]

Great set! Thanks for posting these. I've passed several times on the EP Vampire Chronicles myself...

At least they put a protective cover on the books, but yeah still a bit annoying.
