As we mentioned the other week, we’ve been way too busy shipping The Stand to carry books from other publishers lately, but we don’t want our collectors to miss out on this one, so we’re going to point you toward some other great places to order:

Stinger by Robert McCammon is a Signed, Numbered, and TRAYCASED Limited Edition from SST Publications in the UK and they’re only making 500 copies of this amazing edition. SST always punches above their weight in the production department and this sounds like another major winner.

For our friends in the United States and Canada, Brian over at Lividian Publications has added the book to the Lividian online store. He’ll handle the shipping costs from the UK and any tariffs or taxes that pop up, and then ship your copy to you from either a US or Canadian address.

If you’re in the UK or Europe, you can order directly from SST Publications to save on postage and taxes. Don’t miss out on this one!

Lividian Publications is proud to be publishing a deluxe signed, numbered, and slipcased Limited Edition hardcover of A Prayer for the Dying by Stewart O’Nan.

This special edition has been lavishly crafted with collectors and readers alike in mind. François Vaillancourt provided stunning color artwork for the dust jacket and frontispiece, plus ten black and white illustrations for the interior, making this a true work of art. As a special bonus, “Good Man Mad” by Patrick McGrath is included as an afterword.

About the Novel:
Dark, poetic, and chilling, A Prayer for the Dying asks if it’s possible to be a good man in a time of madness.

Set in leafy Friendship, Wisconsin, just after the Civil War, A Prayer for the Dying opens harmlessly on a languid summer day; only slowly do events reveal themselves as sinister, bloom gently into a shared nightmare, as one neighbor after another succumbs to a creeping, always fatal disease. Our sole witness to this epidemic is Jacob Hansen, Friendship’s sheriff, undertaker, and pastor, a man with a large heart and conscience.

As the disease engulfs his town, breeding hysteria, Jacob must find a humane way to save those he loves, short of calling up a full quarantine and boarding up the sick in their houses. And what of the tramps slipping nightly through the tinder dry woods, and the spiritualists on the edge of town with their charismatic leaders, Chase. Who will bury the dead properly, if not Jacob?

A Prayer for the Dying is a rare and scary book, Stewart O’Nan’s most astounding achievement yet, a sunlit Gothic painted in shimmering prose that darkens and disturbs your complacency the further you go into it until – as in the best Poe and Flannery O’Connor – there is no going back.

Emma Ríos, a cartoonist who has won the Eisner Award, is coming out with a new book she both wrote and drew, titled Anzuelo. Anzuelo has been described as “ eco-horror” and “gorgeous and brutal.” Ríos spoke to Cemetery Dance about her inspiration, writing the Sea under her skin, and her creative process.Continue Reading

We’re working hard to catch up with our hardcover publication schedule in 2024. In some cases, we’re at the mercy of overworked and understaffed printers and case manufacturers, but these companies are committed to helping us get back to a normal release schedule, and Dan Franklin is learning the ropes to help keep things moving.

Here are updates on just some of our projects in progress:

The Best of Cemetery Dance 2 Lettered Edition
Traycases are finished and approved, and we expect to ship in 1-2 weeks.

So Cold the River 
Books are finished at press, waiting on the final approval copy to arrive at office. Expect to ship in 2 weeks after that.

Stephen King Revisited
Rolling at press, expect to ship in 6-8 weeks.

Little Boy (unannounced)
Rolling at press, expected in 8-10 weeks, will be announced closer to publication.

The Stand
Books are at the press and we expect them to finish their work this summer. Slipcases and Traycases will be later in summer because we need finished books to get the sizing just right. For a book of this size, a dummy book isn’t reliable, and we want to be sure they’re perfect.

A Face in the Crowd Artist Edition
The books finished and in hand! Slipcases should be finished in 6 weeks.

A Face in the Crowd Lettered Edition
At the hand binder, who is also making the Traycases. Will ship as each batch of 10-12 copies are sent to us.

Gwendy’s Final Task Limited & Lettered 
Sig sheets are signed and the books are at the binder. We’re expecting to ship this summer.

Gwendy’s Magic Feather Lettered Edition 
Wooden feathers are completed. Books are finished and in warehouse. Traycases are being worked on at the manufacturer now.

Shocklines
Rolling at press and expected in 8-10 weeks.

We’ll share more news on these as they get closer to shipping, and we thank you for your continuing enthusiasm and support!
