Cemetery Dance Publications & 25th Anniversary of Stephen King's IT

Look what UPS brought me tonight!

A few weeks ago, I heard that Cemetery Dance Publications was going to be releasing the 25th Anniversary Edition of Stephen King's IT. Now, I am a huge fan of Stephen King, and I hadn't previously heard about this anniversary edition! I was so excited to hear about this and was even more excited when I learned that I would be able to receive a copy to add to my already-large collection of Stephen King novels.

Cemetery Dance Publications was personally commissioned by Stephen King to publish his Special 25th Anniversary Edition of IT. IT features a brand new afterword by Stephen King, a beautiful full-color wrap-around artwork by Glen Orbik, and nearly 30 original color and black & white illustrations by Alan M. Clark and Erin S. Wells.

The 25th Anniversary Edition of IT is easily the biggest and most lavish production Cemetery Dance Publications has ever undertaken and their efforts have clearly paid off! This special edition goes completely beyond the scope and quality of their other much-acclaimed Stephen King special editions (From A Buick 8 and Blockade Billy), which I am sure is why Stephen King personally chose them to handle this publication!

The deluxe, oversized Gift Edition is one-of-a-kind, printed in two colors and beautifully bound. I am having a hard time putting it on my bookshelf - it looks perfect standing on the coffee table in my living room, it is so beautiful!
