This is a tasty, first printing, signed copy of the Gunslinger. The dust jacket was obtained from Donald Grant and folded onto the book. The book is as close to fine as you can get except for a bit of softening to the heel of the spine and a previous owners faint embossing to the illustrated front endpaper (which is not as obvious as would be on plain white endpaper).

Michael Whelan signed this in 1982, which is the publication date. Also signed by KING in that beautiful vintage style. A beautiful signed copy. More than likely this was signed by Whelan at the eighth annual World fantasy convention in New Haven Connecticut. It’s very likely that King signedthere also.

About "CUJO"

Cujo is so well-paced and scary that people tend to read it quickly, so they mostly remember the scene of the mother and son trapped in the hot Pinto and threatened by the rabid Cujo, forgetting the multifaceted story in which that scene is embedded. This is definitely a novel that rewards re-reading. When you read it again, you can pay more attention to the theme of country folk vs. city folk; the parallel marriage conflicts of the Cambers vs. the Trentons; the poignancy of the amiable St. Bernard (yes, the breed choice is just right) infected by a brain-destroying virus that makes it into a monster; and the way the "daylight burial" of the failed ad campaign is reflected in the sunlit Pinto that becomes a coffin. And how significant it is that this horror tale is not supernatural: it's as real as junk food, a failing marriage, a broken-down car, or a fatal virus.

Cujo is a horror novel by Stephen King, published by Viking in 1981. The book tells the story of the middle-class Trenton family and rural Camber clan in Castle Rock, Maine. Mundane marital and financial difficulties plague disgraced advertising man Vic Trenton and his adulterous wife Donna. Their domestic problems are dwarfed by mortal danger when Donna and her four-year-old son Tad are terrorized by a rabid St. Bernard named Cujo. The novel was adapted into a 1983 film of the same name.

The book is a semi-sequel to King's earlier work The Dead Zone. "Cujo" makes several specific references to the events and characters of "The Dead Zone," even so much as to lead the audience to believe that Frank Dodd (committed suicide in The Dead Zone) is possessing Cujo. King made later reference to the dog in his 1983 novel The Body, fromDifferent Seasons.

A reference to Cujo is made in the short story Mrs. Todd's Shortcut, where it mentions Joe Camber getting killed by his own dog.

The name for the dog originated with King's research for a novel regarding the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) and the kidnapping of Patty Hearst. One of the members of the SLA, and Hearst's lover during her ordeal, was Willie Wolfe who took the name Cujo as his nom de guerre.

Pay the Piper (Signed & Slipcased Limited Edition) (preorder)

by George A. Romero and Daniel Kraus

Publication Date: Est. August/September 2026

First Hardcover Edition

“Not only is this deliciously gruesome book teeming with classic Southern gothic trappings, it also resonates with a socially conscious message. . . . For fans of both Kraus's novels and Romero's films, this bloody Southern story highlights the strengths of both auteurs.”—Library Journal

A terrifying tale of supernatural horror set in a cursed Louisiana bayou, from the minds of legendary director George A. Romero and New York Times bestselling and Pulitzer Prize–winning author Daniel Kraus.

In 2019, while sifting through University of Pittsburgh Library System’s George A. Romero Archival Collection, novelist Daniel Kraus turned up a surprise: a half-finished novel called Pay the Piper, a project few had ever heard of. In the years since, Kraus has worked with Romero’s estate to bring this unfinished masterwork to light.

Alligator Point, Louisiana, population 141: Young Renée Pontiac has heard stories of “the Piper”—a murderous swamp entity haunting the bayou—her entire life. But now the legend feels horrifically real: children are being taken and gruesomely slain. To resist, Pontiac and the town’s desperate denizens will need to acknowledge the sins of their ancestors—the infamous slave traders, the Pirates Lafitte. If they don’t . . . it’s time to pay the piper.

Praise for Pay the Piper

“A captivating triumph for horror fans.”

—Tananarive Due, author of The Reformatory

“A great action-packed horror novel . . . for fans of waterlogged southern gothic with monsters that prey off the complicated history of a land and its people.”

—Booklist

“Not only is this deliciously gruesome book teeming with classic Southern gothic trappings, it also resonates with a socially conscious message. . . . For fans of both Kraus's novels and Romero's films, this bloody Southern story highlights the strengths of both auteurs.”

—Library Journal

“Pay the Piper features many of Romero's creative hallmarks—creepy creatures, icky deaths, and under-the-surface social commentary . . . The novel demonstrates a knack for the kind of patient, expansive storytelling Romero couldn't always squeeze into his big-screen efforts. . . . To those who celebrated (or perhaps derided) Romero as the dean of the dead, the completed novel offers a chance to reconsider his legacy.”

—New York Times

“Romero and Kraus start with a fun monster-fighting book set in the swamp. While they have us looking over our shoulders, they end with us looking within. . . . Accountability, with destruction as the consequence should we not fulfill it, is the cautionary tale with the possibility of a hopeful resolution we crave.”

—Southern Review of Books

A haunting meditation on the dichotomies—and surprising parallels—of science and the soul, Kate Wilhelm’s Where Late the Sweet Birds Sang is one of the most celebrated science fiction novels of the 20th century. Winner of the Hugo, Locus, Jupiter and John W. Campbell Memorial awards, it remains as poignant and prescient today as when it first appeared.

In a near-future ravaged by ecological collapse and human infertility, the Sumner family, a large and wealthy clan in Virginia, takes drastic steps to preserve the species—through cloning. Initially, this strategy ensures survival, but as generations pass, the cloned society begins to experience a quiet unraveling. What begins as a utopian solution soon gives way to existential questions about identity, creativity, and the cost of conformity. With prose as elegant as it is unsettling, Wilhelm explores what it truly means to be human in a world where individuality is the ultimate rebellion.

Before the publication of Wilhelm’s novel, part one of Where Late the Sweet Birds Sang was featured in the fifteenth edition of Orbit, an anthology series celebrated for showcasing boundary-pushing science fiction that challenged the norms of the genre. Upon the novel’s full publication by Harper & Row in 1976, Where Late the Sweet Birds Sang was universally hailed by critics and peers alike as a landmark work of speculative fiction by a pioneering voice.

Wilhelm’s novel endures as a profound exploration of humanity’s essence, reminding us that survival devoid of individuality and creativity leads to a hollow existence.

SYCAMORE by Ian Rogers

Back in 1945, the first portal opened–a tear in reality leading from our world into the mysterious Black Lands, a realm of perpetual night filled with strange and deadly entities. Soon another portal appeared. Then another. Today, the government secures every portal they find, but with more and more opening, and no idea how to predict or prevent the next one’s arrival, society is teetering on the brink of panic.

Felix Renn knows the Black Lands all too well. His career as a private investigator has dragged him closer to it than most, and has garnered him a reputation for dealing with supernatural threats. But people who interact with the Black Lands have a habit of turning up dead in horrible ways–if they turn up at all–so when the chance comes up to take on a simple missing person’s case in the small town of Sycamore, he eagerly jumps at the opportunity.

Only, something else is happening in Sycamore too. A serial killer is on the loose, and as the bodies continue to pile up, it becomes clear that the perpetrator may be something less–or someone more–than human.

Felix may have thought he was done with the Black Lands, but he soon discovers a terrifying truth: the Black Lands isn’t done with him.

This signed limited edition also included a new 32,000 word novella, The Sun Never Rises.

EMINENCE FRONT

by Rebecca Rowland

A winter storm ravages a small community in New England, but the residents of one street are unprepared for what the snow brings: an ancient curse, an entity that knows both their sins and their regrets and will stop at nothing to consume what belongs to it.

When John Stephenson peers out of his window on a Tuesday morning, he sees nothing but clear, gray skies hovering above the houses on his staid suburban street, but the next 48 hours will prove to be a waking nightmare from which John and his neighbors cannot escape. As the first flakes fall, the whispering begins. A woman walking her dog leans into the sidewalk as though something buried beneath speaks to her. As the storm grows in ferocity, each of the residents hear the storm calling.

What it says, however, few may survive to repeat.

From Shirley Jackson and Bram Stoker Award finalist Rebecca Rowland comes a winter horror novel of cosmic proportions, one in which one neighborhood comes face to face, and ear to ear, with a malevolence as old as the world itself.

NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN by Cormac McCarthy, Suntup Numbered Edition, There are no purchase rights for future Suntup Editions included with this purchase. The book will be packed carefully for the utmost protection and will be shipped fully insured. Descriptions and pics courtesy of Suntup Editions.

The Numbered edition of two-hundred fifty copies is a full leather binding with the title blind debossed into the leather, across the entire cover using a heated die creating a deep, branded impression that darkens the surface and enhances the natural grain. The effect is raw and elemental, aligning with the stripped-down brutality of the narrative.

We have selected a distinctive vegetable-tanned leather from the renowned Badalassi Carlo Tannery in Tuscany, Italy. Known as “Pueblo,” this leather is hand-finished to achieve a uniquely distressed, almost sand-worn texture that evokes the parched desert landscapes and sun-beaten terrain of Cormac McCarthy’s borderland setting. The surface of the leather bears a subtle rugged grain, its visual irregularities and tonal depth suggesting scars and weathering that echo the characters of the novel.

Endsheet papers are Napura Khepera and head & tail bands are handmade with leather. The edition is housed in a clamshell enclosure covered in Dubletta cloth with velour lined trays. It is printed letterpress on Neenah Cotton paper and is signed by Joseph Zbukvic.

Please note that I will ship these the day after I get them from Paul, which should be no later than July 12.

It is designed by Bradley Hutchinson and printed letterpress on his Heidelberg Cylinder in Austin, Texas on mouldmade Hahnemühle Biblio. The artwork is printed from the original blocks and the typeface is Espinosa Nova. The title and first page are printed in two colors, requiring two passes through the press. The volume is 24 pages and is hand sewn into Arches Cover wrappers by the printer and features a letterpress printed cover label. It is signed by the artist.

First published in the Christmas 1897 issue of The Graphic and collected two years later in Tales of Space and Time, H. G. Wells’s “The Star” stands as one of the earliest and most powerful works of apocalyptic science fiction in the English language.

A strange luminous body enters the solar system and collides with Neptune, forging a blazing new star that hurtles sunward, passing perilously close to Earth. As the celestial intruder draws nearer, its gravitational fury triggers earthquakes, tidal waves, and melting ice caps, while humanity cycles through wonder, denial, and terror.

Wells tells this story not through a single protagonist but through the collective voice of a world under siege—scientist and laborer, believer and skeptic—building a remorseless planetary tension that culminates in a final shift of perspective so coolly devastating it has haunted readers for more than a century.
