Any chance of a Nightmare Factory reprint?

[Lugosi]

Hello all,
I would really love to get my hands on a copy of the original Nightmare Factory, but the only copies that I see available are at ridiculously high collector prices (over $200!!!). Is there any chance that this book (that I understand is VERY GOOD) will be reprinted so that we non-Rockefellers can get a reading copy?

Thanks for the help!
Jim

My basic understanding of Tom's agreement with Fox Atomic is that they own publishing rights to both THE NIGHTMARE FACTORY as a trademark title as well as the stories contained therein. I am not certain of the latter conditions and how it might relate to having individual stories published in other collections. I believe this deal may also have an expiration date. I am reaching into a haze of memory at this point, which could mean that I dreamt the whole affair in the first place.

Have you read THE SHADOW AT THE BOTTOM OF THE WORLD from Cold Spring Press? It includes quite a few stories from THE NIGHTMARE FACTORY and the Trade Paperback edition is quite a bargain.

My greatest wish for a reprint is to see TAROVF in a new edition. This is the last big Ligotti collection I haven't yet had the pleasure of reading, and unfortunately, the prices are through the roof for this rare tome.
