Re: Reggie Oliver

I ordered one. Even though I have all of his stuff, I can't turn down a Reggie Oliver book, I know better by now.

YES... I could not pass this up either. I'm especially looking forward to the new art purported to be in this new edition - I understand there will be upward of 72 pictures, many of which will be brand new!!!

Re: Reggie Oliver

I got an email tonight saying that the book is shipping this Wednesday. That was quick. I literally put the order in yesterday. Something to look forward to, for sure.

Re: Reggie Oliver

I was on the fence with this one too, as I have all Oliver's previous books. However, the added artwork and fine presentation won me over. I'm a sucker for Centipede Press books.

Re: Reggie Oliver

Just came home from a lousy day at school/work and found a big box from Centipede Press in the lobby. My copy of Dramas from the Depths has arrived.

What a way to start the week

This is my first time reading Reggie Oliver.

I feel like I should sacrifice some Easter Peeps in gratitude.

Hope everyone else gets their copies as quickly.

Re: Reggie Oliver

Oh, I am so envious! I hope my copy does not take too long to reach me, but one can never tell with Canadian customs.

Re: Reggie Oliver

I desperately ordered a copy on Sunday (April 4th). Saving $25 means everything these days. Other than a story published in Zencore!, this will be my introduction to Mr. Oliver's work, too.

"What does it mean to be alive except to court disaster and suffering at every moment?"

Tibet: Carnivals?
Ligotti: Ceremonies for initiating children into the cult of the sinister.
Tibet: Gas stations?
Ligotti: Nothing to say about gas stations as such, although I've always responded to the smell of gasoline as if it were a kind of perfume.

Re: Reggie Oliver

Yea I ordered a copy Saturday, though I have never read Reggie's work. Is he kinda a modern day M.R. James? Seems like. I'm an artist also so the drawings will be cool also. It will be something to pass the time till Conspiracy gets here Anyone know when Conspiracy is shipping btw? I know April but early or late?

Re: Reggie Oliver

M.R. James is definitely in there, but I see a lot of Robert Aickman too. You're in for a treat.
