First try I didn't like it but then I changed my mindset and then, I could not stop reading.

Yes indeed, I ordered the limited edition, and if I'm remembering correctly the publisher sent out an email saying that they were waiting on the slipcases to be made before they shipped the limited out. Thanks for answering so quickly- I hate worrying about having something get 'lost' in the mail these days- like my limited edition of King's 'One For The Road' that the mailman swears he handed directly to me, which he never did!

My experience with ordering limited editions is that mostly, nobody has any real idea of when they are going to actually be published. It seems like every time I order something from Cemetery Dance, it ends up being delayed months and months and months. I've never ordered from Subterranean, though, so maybe they're different. Probably not, though; I know the limited edition of NOS4A2 just got delayed.

The Dark Tower Companion by Bev Vincent
Besides a personally guided tour by Stephen King himself, no one could do more a more insightful overview of The Dark Tower saga, and by extension the body of King's works, than Bev Vincent.
Long acknowledged a master of King lore, Bev uses that acumen to succinctly tie everything together. Not only does the book include a handy reference guide to the major characters, places, themes and tie-ins, but in typical Vincent fashion, Bev raises interesting possibilities beyond the material itself. Some are conjecture. Others of an insight that only comes to those mastered in their subject.
Bev Vincent proves himself a King Master with this book.

Totally agree. A must for all DT readers.

Ironically, I just opened an email from Sub Press and the limiteds will be sent out in the next couple of weeks. They also state that McCammon has plans for several sequels to this tale!! WooHoo!

I looked at McCammon's website today and it said that "I Travel by Night" is 90% sold out! I'd better hurry up and order a copy!
