Two new updates regarding publications. The first from Centipede Press:
THE EXORCIST
Studies in the Horror Film
This title will also be available in about three or four weeks. The hardcover edition is signed by editor Danel Olson, William Peter Blatty, Thomas Ligotti, and a few other writers. More information will be coming soon!The second, from Lonely Road Books and Brian Freeman:
Here is the new update about The Exorcist: The 40th Anniversary Revised Limited Edition by William Peter Blatty:
Caniglia has turned in all of the color interior artwork, and he really went overboard. The original plan was 6 pieces, but there's definitely more than that here. I'm going to break the budget a bit to include ALL of them. Final count will be unveiled in a future update, but I think our collectors will be blown away.
The book is being designed now and we're moving along at a good clip. We hope to have design and proofreading completed by April and then the book will be ready for the printer for an early summer publication date.
Also, there's a special unannounced bonus for the Lettered Edition customers: because Caniglia turned in so much extra artwork, there will be entirely different artwork on the Lettered Edition's dust jacket.
Thanks again to everyone for your support of Lonely Road Books. Keep watching your inbox for more exciting news and announcements.
Regarding The Exorcist: Studies In The Horror Film…
Â
I don't mean to sound like a pessimist but are we going to get the same stuff from this book that we've gotten from other books about the making of The Exorcist. Â Do you know of possibly any new never before seen pictures are going to be in the book or will we get the same standard crop of pics. Â Normally I wouldn't be this rough but, the book is listed at $35 on Amazon, which I'm more than happy to pay, if it offers something new.
It's now available for pre-order with the contents listed here:

The latest:
http://www.lonelyroadbooks.com/news.html
The book is designed and being proofread now. We're still right on track for a summer publication date.
As I mentioned last time, originally I planned on having 6 color artwork plates in this special edition, but Caniglia went overboard and turned in 13 (!) color pieces, so I'm breaking the budget and adding all of them to the book.
In addition, Mr. Blatty has provided an introduction and an afterword that won't be appearing in any other edition, so those have been added to the Lonely Road Books special edition as an unannounced bonus.
Finally, there is also a special unannounced bonus for the Lettered Edition customers: because Caniglia turned in so much extra artwork, there will be entirely different artwork on the Lettered Edition's dust jacket.
