I just purchased DUMA KEY a few weeks ago from Barnes and Noble and they or somebody put an RFID tracking device right onto the opening fly sheet paper of this wonderful book.
I was going to try to find exactly that same book Reesespieces but I got sidetracked by DUMA KEY which has been a fantastic read from this old SK lover of his works.
I'll be finding it this week when I go back into our big city again. or rather, big town.
well, i just bought 20th Century Ghosts by Joe Hill, I guess that's kind of related
NOW THAT IS WHAT A CALL THE BARGAIN OF THE YEAR. YAHOO----Quote:

My most recent purchase was his latest book Duma Key. I paid like 20 somethin dollars for a new hardback edition when it came out.
Duma Key.
Saturday I went to a used book store and purchased Danse Macabre, Cujo, The Tommyknockers, and The Dark Half. The bookstore would take popular fiction for in-store credit so it only costed $5.00.
I'm replacing some loaned books that were never returned. I just got The Talisman hardback first edition used, and Nightmares in the Sky used. I got them from Abebooks. very happy with them.
I bought DT5 and DT7 hardcovers for $1 each at the library's used book sale :biggrin2:
I pulled my hat down low, put on my dark glasses and ventured into Walmart:oo: last week
(I'm not a fan of Walmart) for a prescription refill. While I was waiting I browsed the book section. I couldn't resist Duma Key HB for $16.95. After waiting 20 minutes in the checkout line behind screaming William, age 2, and in front of Mrs. Run her Buggy into my Ankles I was ready to drop it and run. But hey I'm a fan right and this was going to save me 3 bucks! Finally I make my way to the cash register and the total comes to $21.34. "What happened to $16.95 that is printed on the cover?" I ask the teenage cashier with a safety pin in his nose and more metal in his mouth than I had when I had braces. He very sweetly and patiently explained that I now had to go to Customer Service for price discrepancies. There I stand in another line, at least in this one I was entertained by a man who was arguing with security about someone who was stalking him in the store. Reaching the counter I received my $3 refund from a smiling Asian woman who spoke no English. 45 mins later I walk out with my very own hardback Duma Key. I'm either a dedicated fan with the patience of a saint or a nutball with too much time on my hands that day. I can't wait for the first bite as soon as the time is right to start it!!:biggrin2:
