Subterranean Press just announced that it will be publishing a limited, signed run of 750 cloth bound sets (and 26 leather bound sets) of Hugh Howey's self-published Silo trilogy (
Wool,
Shift, and
Dust). It appears that the initial run for the limited edition was going to be 500. There has been such clamor for these titles that I fully expect even larger runs to sell out.
For you design geeks, the dust jacked was designed by
Jason Gurley. (and yes, those are other
Hugh Howey book covers, for
The Hurricane - self-published in 2011, and
The Plagiarist, and
Half Way Home on his Tumblr blog.)
Each of the books is signed and the leather bound edition is housed in a slipcase.
Limited edition: (set of 3 cloth bound, signed) $180
Lettered edition: (set of 3 leather bound, signed) $500
Century (an imprint of Random House UK) published an earlier signed, limited edition for
Goldsboro Books in the UK. Those copies are listing for $50 to $300+ each (on
Abebooks), and there are a few sets out there being offered for $600-$800+.
