Sock Monkey's Collection

[Theli]

Outstanding new additions!

Tell me about it! By my estimation, TSB has published around 30 books this year and with their price point being between $65 and $85, that adds up to a whole lot of money. I'd be able to swing more if I only bought TSB books, but I also buy the majority of what CD puts out along with the occasional Sub Press, Centipede, and Earthling book, which means that my budget gets stretched pretty darn thin.

Exactly! And that's not counting trade/mass market releases from the big NY publishers, either.

My only issue with TSB is I want to purchase everything they publish, but can't afford to do so.

If you're taking the pictures with your phone, even though your phone might know which way is up, quite often when you e-mail, or in this case upload, the picture will default to how it was taken.

Not sure if that's what's happening though. I experience this whenever I e-mail a picture from my phone (an iPhone) to work, Windows will almost have it rotated 90 degrees.

That explains a lot. Thanks for the heads up!

I love what Thunderstorm is producing. Great additions.

Thanks!

How are the stories? I've thought about getting this series.

Unfortunately, I am SO far behind in my reading that I haven't been able to get to the first two books in the series let alone the two new ones. I got a promotion at work back in May and since then I've only finished one book. I'm starting to get a hang of the new position so hopefully I'll be able to get back on track with my reading.

Awesome! Now what's the secret?

I copied your photos, rotated them, then reposted

The last addition is the first book in Thunderstorm's new Misteriosa Diablo line. Essentially, the series is set up as an incentive book for members to purchase at a discounted price if they meet a qualifying event (the first was being a member having purchased a book from Thunderstorm in the last 90 days, the second book was part of bundle package of four Bryan Smith books). The title and author are not revealed at all, even upon the shipping invoice so it is a complete surprise until you open the box. Think CD's Forthcoming Grab Bags, but with the book being even more rare (Book 1 only had 30 copies made) and not being able to be purchased by the public afterward.

I was nervous with the purchase, but after I received it I was happy I did. I really like Kelli Owen's work so I was happy to add this to my collection.
