New Cover! The Shining from Stephen King and Subterranean Press

Back in the fall, I shared an announcement from Subterranean Press concerning an illustrated limited edition version of The Shining by Stephen King. Today, they revealed the cover. The artwork is by Vincent Chong.

You have to be a hardcore King lover as the book is not cheap and it is a limited Gift edition: 1500 Deluxe Hardcover copies, housed in a custom slipcase, with bonus chapbook: $95. If you order The Shining before the end of business on June 7, 2013 will also receive a bonus chapbook of Vincent Chong's sketches available nowhere else.

New Signed Limited Edition of The Shining by Stephen King

Subterranean Press announced they are publishing a Signed Limited Edition of Stephen King's seminal novel, "The Shining". The luxurious hardcovers will be published in three formats and will feature over 40 illustrations by acclaimed artist Dagmara Matuszak. The signed editions will be signed by Stephen and the artist. These special editions are not cheap by any means; if you're a hardcore Stephen King fan, they might be worth it. I'm a mild fan at best so I won't be buying any of these but I will say that I've ordered other books from Sub Press and been  pleased with the quality.

Signed Limited Edition of 750 numbered copies, housed in a custom traycase: $450
Signed Lettered Edition of 52 copies, specially bound, housed in a custom traycase: $2,500
Gift Edition of 1500 unsigned copies, cloth bound, housed in a custom slipcase: $95

Preorders for these books will begin in January 2013. News regarding preorders will be sent first from their newsletter, "Notes from the Underground".
