My copy of "Two Worlds and In Between" came today. Although I know that Subpress does beautiful work, this has to be one of the best that I have seen. It's physically lovely (all of those wonderful illustrations!), and has a satisfying heft in the hands that no e-reader or tablet will ever be able to mimic.
For the first few minutes after it came, I felt like Carter at Tutankhamun's tomb, reaching into the box and gently scrabling the packing peanuts until I saw wonderful things. I've put it up on the shelf for now. I'm going to ration myself, because if I'm not careful I'll just gorge and read the whole thing without stopping.
Counting down to "The Drowning Girl", and to the trailer. The photos that you've posted are lovely. And the Michael Zuli art that was included in a couple of them reminded me a lot of Sarah's memory of the girl in the quarry in "The Red Tree".
