Just got my UK large print edition of NDOD by Chivers Press. Check out the all new jacket art. Not bad. I'm still trying to track down the Chivers Press HTTK.

Hmm...

Very interesting cover on the NDOD. Sort of evokes the old US Fleming MacMillan Book Club editions. Sort of. A little plain, but I like it.

The HTTK cover is nice, but clich

Where can people buy it from Zencat? I've checked out Chivers website and it's not listed. I'd like to put it as 'news' on the main site.

Sorry, I should have put that in my original post, Blue Eyes. I got it on Amazon.co.uk.

It takes 4 to 6 weeks to get it...but don't be too dissapointed if you get a notice in 4 to 6 weeks saying they cannot complete the order. That's been my experience in the past. Large print editions have very limited print runs--that's why they're fun to collect. I order large prints whenever I see one listed and I'm always pleasantly surprised when (if) they actually arrive. I just put in an order for a Chivers HTTK paperback (which I'm hoping is different from the one above).

I got to admit I actually like it then the US and UK covers of the book. There's just something really Bondish about it as oppose to a knife or the inside of an eyeball.

Hey, Blue Eyes, I did a search of "Raymond Benson" on the Chivers site and I was able to find a listing for the book (along with the paperback HTTK). You can even order direct.

How many large print editions of Never Dream Of Dying are there? I'm under the impression there are two: A British edition and an American one.

The UK one has different cover art, and (if) there is a US one, does it have different cover art as well?

Seeing the title of this thread made my heart leap. I thougt there was a new NDOD large print. And then I saw I'm the one who made this thread -- in 2002. LOL.

There are two NDOD large prints. US ed has the same cover art as the US hardcover. UK looks like this.

This is the only large print Benson book I've had trouble finding. It never seems to show up anywhere. :D
