Doesn't make sense but wanted this number. Originally wanted to get The Stand from my proceeds of Joyland, but didn't quite work out when the bill for the car came, so this was my little bit of extravagance.

When I received this, the packaging was so extreme, it took 20 minutes to just get the parcel tape off. Nothing barring a steam roller would have got to this book.

It was my intention to read this book as my finale to the series last year, while drinking champers but couldn't bring myself to read it. I do read the Long Walk pictured above often, but can't with any of my other limiteds.
Settled with a mixture of reading the Artists edition and the audiobook whilst driving to work.
More to follow in the next few days but as said it is a humble collection and not much more. Hope people don't mind some of my none King books appearing too. If not I will delve into some more of those.
Other than some random cd grab bags I try to collect the books I've enjoyed over the years.

Excellent stuff Dave - and, yes, please post your non-SK prizes as well - I, for one, would love to see them here :smile:
-
Yes, me too! You own many King editions that I don't have in my collection and I look forward to seeing what non-King stuff you have.

I have about 4 from this book signed and framed.
When I ordered them, I think it was Darrell sent all 4 but only charged my for 3 of them, so contacted the guys and, long story short, gave me the fourth for free, very cool of them and makes me appreciate them all the more.

Again this needs replacing with a real one, from US.

A few more pics from other authors. Back to the Weaveworld. Can't even remember buying this! But remember reading this and re-reading pretty much within the following months. Great read.

Irvine Welsh, very gritty Scottish writer, this book is vile in parts, but something about it, so different. Very good.

Philip Pullman is pretty cool. My girlfriend was reading one of his books from our local library, and on the title page he has put in an inscription to the library encouraging the local children to read as much as possible.
Wasn't expecting to see that in a library book!

I love the Dark Materials trilogy!
