That sort of explains it then -- Scribner never had the rights to those books before. They must have reverted from Random House and been assigned to Scribner.
Me too! As a combo, I like these better than the original Black House and the reddish (?) Talisman reissue.

The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
Damn nice covers. I can't wait until a Talisman/Black House 3.

As you might know, Scribner is publishing stunning new hardcover editions of
The Talisman and Black House by Stephen King and Peter Straub. Due to
popular demand, we'll be creating a special slipcase to house both books in
stylish fashion for our collectors, and as a special bonus we're including
an incredible poster created by Tomislav Tikulin just for this set! This
poster will feature original, never-before-seen artwork and it'll look great
on the wall of your office, reading room, den, or library.
We'll only create enough slipcases and posters to fill our preorders, so
there might only be a couple dozen or a few hundred (at the very most!) of
these collectible book sets anywhere in the world!
About the Book:
This fall, Scribner will be publishing stunning new hardcover editions of The Talisman and Black House by Stephen King and Peter Straub. Due to popular demand, we'll be creating a special slipcase to house both books in stylish fashion for our collectors, and as a special bonus we'll be including an incredible artwork poster created by Tomislav Tikulin just for this set! We'll only create enough slipcases and posters to fill our preorders for the two book set, so there might only be a couple dozen or a few hundred (at the very most) of these collectible book sets anywhere in the world! Place your order early so you don't miss out!
Included in this Collectible Set:
* the new hardcover edition of The Talisman, to be published by Scribner this fall ($35.00 retail value)
* the new hardcover edition of Black House, to be published by Scribner this fall ($35.00 retail value)
* a special Limited Edition Slipcase custom-made by Cemetery Dance specifically for this set. This huge slipcase will be sized perfectly to protect both books and the design features will include custom hot-foil stamping and the high production values of our previous Stephen King slipcases. ($29.95 retail value)
* an original full-size poster featuring original artwork by Tomislav Tikulin that is being commissioned by Cemetery Dance specifically for this set ($20 retail value)
So that's nearly a $120 retail value for just $99, and the slipcase and the poster will not be sold in stores! If you want this very cool collectible set for your Stephen King collection, this is the place to order!
I ordered the set (despite the insane shipping costs to Europe). Looking forward to receiving it!
I'm not a big fan of the new covers. I think it's the bland font.
I ordered the books through Amazon. Nice discount, plus very low shipping/handling costs.
The slipcase I hope to order from CD at a later date.

I understood that CD will only produce as many slipcases as needed for the number of sets that are ordered.
There are always extras.....(I hope..)

Co-signed. I don't get why his covers are getting simplified with the advance of tools available to artists. His older fonts were, at least to me, much more eye-catching: It, Misery, Bag of Bones, The Shining, The Green Mile, most DT books etc. These two fonts in particular stand out too much. Maybe a different shade and a little more blending into the picture would've worked better.
I'll still buy them but I wish his camp cared enough to put a little more thought and effort into it.
I ordered the slipcase with books from CD. I want to see how many items I can get back-ordered from CD. It's a contest I'm having with myself; the anticipation is killing me, but it's FUN waiting for all these books and things to come out (I realize that's a contradictory statement, but it's still true). Once they arrive I look at them and then put them on my groaning bookshelves, only to see them again when I dust them.

Dust? We're supposed to dust our books? Nobody ever told me this ...
It's a serious situation! Dust mites lay 30 to 50 eggs every few days, and dust accumulates mainly on books and carpeting, causing allergic reactions and breathing problems. I read it in the newspaper, so it must be true.

These new books draw zero interest from me. Great books but I already own them...
I like these covers a lot so I will be getting them anyway. But the humongous shipping costs ($64!) are starting to gnaw at my conscience... maybe Siep's way is the way to go after all.
Well, to put it into perspective, I almost didn't buy the 2nd printing of THE GUNSLINGER trade hardcover from Grant. After all, I already had two editions of it. I doubt these books will increase in value that much, but you never know!
