As previously noted, Subterranean Press will be publishing limited editions of Naomi Novik’s Temeraire books. They’ve now confirmed some of their plans.
The Subterranean Press limited editions will have a full-color dustjacket by Dominic Harman (the artist who created the original covers). Harman will also create four full-color illustrations for the limited edition. Anke Eissmann will provide a special, fifth illustration which will appear only in the lettered edition.
The signed, limited edition will be 500 numbered hardcover copies, with a list price of $125. The lettered edition, of 52, will be housed in a custom traycase and priced at $300.
And for true collectors, Subterranean notes that they have all four volumes under contract, and they can offer matching numbers for customers wishing to collect the whole set.
Additionally, they’re offering a 20% discount on the limited edition for customers pre-ordering by 17 August 2007. “To take advantage of the special, please mention it in the comments when checking out. The shopping cart and automatic email confirmation won’t reflect the sale price, but we’ll catch it when processing your order.” For more information, see this page.
