Stephen King books published by our Cemetery Dance Publications
hardcover line:
  In
October of 2007, Cemetery Dance Publications announced The
Secretary of Dreams (Volume Two). This second venture into the world
of Stephen King's stories will contain even more artwork and detailed illustrations
that could only have come from the inspired hands of artist Glenn Chadbourne.
As you venture into this new volume of The Secretary of Dreams you'll
discover "The Monkey," "Strawberry Spring," and "In
the Deathroom" presented on beautifully designed oversized pages. These
stories are heavily illustrated with spot artwork, full page illustrations,
and even multiple-page art spreads. Dozens of painstakingly crafted illustrations
bring King's characters to life. Also within this collection are "Gray
Matter," "One for the Road ," and "Nona," which appear
for the very first time in full graphic format as imagined by Chadbourne. Not
one word from King's original manuscripts has been left out. Instead
Chadbourne presents the stories through a variety of techniques: traditional
paragraphs of text merged directly into the artwork, handwritten bursts of dialogue
to convey emotion, and even multiple fonts to match the mood of each scene.
An original Cemetery Dance Publications publishing event, this deluxe oversized
hardcover edition is the World's First Edition and there are no other editions
planned of this title at this time. As with the first
volume (of which there are only a few hundred copies remaining), we will
not be selling this title at a discount, and we will not fill any orders for
distributors who will be selling it at a discount. Amazon wanted over 2,000
copies of Volume
One (which would have sold it out on publication), but The
Secretary of Dreams (Volume Two) will only be available directly
from Cemetery Dance and a few independent booksellers we've worked with for
years.
In
December of 2006, Cemetery Dance Publications published a deluxe Limited Edition
of The Secretary
of Dreams, Stephen King's first ever unabridged graphic short stort
collection. Featuring a half-dozen classic tales of terror personally selected
by King, this collection presented his stories for the first time in the tradition
of the pulp horror comics. Spanning close to 280 oversized pages, the hundreds
of illustrations and full comic panels from acclaimed Maine artist Glenn Chadbourne
transformed The
Secretary of Dreams into a work of art. Not one word from King's stories
was left out — instead they've been brought to life by hundreds of pen and ink
drawings by Chadbourne. Stories featured in this volume were: "Home Delivery,"
"Jerusalem's Lot," "The Reach," "The Road Virus Heads
North," "Rainy Season," and "Uncle Otto's Truck." Samples
of the artwork are available online.
In October of 2002, Cemetery Dance Publications released a special Limited Edition
of Stephen King's From
A Buick 8. The book was published in Gift, Limited, and Lettered states.
Illustrated by the legendary Bernie Wrightson (artist for The Stand and
Cycle of the Werewolf), the Cemetery Dance editions featured unique binding
and endpapers, oversized design, and amazing artwork (both full-color and black-and-white
interiors by Wrightson). The book sold out before publication (and the Limited
and Lettered Editions sold out in less than 24 hours!), but some artwork,
covers, and photos of the various editions are available online.
Cemetery Dance Publications has also published several of King's shorter
works in hardcover:
"The Road Virus Heads North" in 999
"One for the Road" in Legacies
"Autopsy Room Four" in Robert
Bloch's Psychos
"Chattery Teeth" in The
Best of Cemetery Dance
"The Reaper's Image" in Great

unpublished 1970 novel Sword in the Darkness appeared in Stephen
King: Uncollected, Unpublished
