  1. Exciting news!!! As Ariel said, “LOOKS AWESOME”, better than I ever imagined. I knew it was going to be worth the wait and it’s amazing to know that after 12 years, the wait is almost over. Thanks so much for the update, but even more importantly, a huge THANK YOU to everyone at Cemetery Dance, for ensuring that ‘Legacies’ will be everything you promised. You’ve made my day!!!

  2. Gorgeous tome. Great authors. I cannot wait for the stories.The signature sheet alone is going to be an amazing historic document. A powerful testament of 20th to 21st century Horror and Speculative fantasy/fiction writers. If I can afford another book-this season- this is the one. I cannot believe -that almost every day- Cemetery Dance publications has new works of combined literary and visual artistry, that become more and more aesthetically breathtaking. Thanks for finding the best teams of writers and illustrators. In a time when the book ,as an art form, is threatened -even at The Library of Congress- Cemetery Dance stands with the handful of purist art publishers – who know how much rare and collectible books mean- to both writers,readers,and visual artists. All of us who live for the feel, scent, and synergy of a great tales, with lush illustrative artwork, – bound together for aesthetic wonder, and journeys into the written word- thank you all. Keep on outdoing yourselves. I’ll keep trying to keep up. R.S.Sippel

  3. Looks to be an OUTSTANDING edition! Thank you for keeping the project alive despite the lengthy snags. Looks to be well worth the wait.

  4. When I first ordered my lettered copy, I was excited about receiving it and adding it to my collection. As the delays went on, I felt that a hole was growing in my collection that would never be filled. Ariel and others at CD kept encouraging me to wait and now I am glad that I did. I haven’t been this excited about a book since I ordered my first book from Arkham House in 1963! The only difference is I won’t be sitting in front of the house watching for the mailman every day. Patience does pay off in the end! Thank you CD for not giving up on this wonderful project! You are creating a legend.

  5. Amazing as always! Cemetery Dance does it again! Top Notch authors, great artwork, and stunning books that any collector would be proud to own! I used to only collect one author but since I’ve learned about Cemetery Dance I can’t get enough of their books. This is one I’m really anxious to receive. Great job, but that really isn’t a surprise, Cemetery Dance ONLY publishes the VERY BEST!

  6. It has been sooooo looooong, but truly seems like only yesterday that I placed my order! Thank you for hanging in there and getting it done for us. It looks wonderful and I cannot wait to get my grubby little hands on it!

  7. This book arrived safely at my office today. Just gorgeous. Feel privileged to have obtained this handsome book. Traycase is a beautiful frame for this tomb.
