I guess that bums me out a bit, I mean I pluncked my $125 down a year ago to support the project, presumably I (and others like me) helped make it viable and now it's about to be printed... but I could have waited for the same product and price? That disappoints me.Here's a quote from the author from last year http://www.acaeum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=10007&hilit=slumbering+tsar&start=20"Now, having said all that, if you subscribe you get the hardback (~800 pages) for the cost of its shipping. The subscription allows us to both know the number of the big books that we need to print and have the capital to pay for them. This isn't going to be some 1000-copy print run. We're going to print the books for the people who purchase them and probably a few extras, but that is it. Anyone who wants to buy it after that will have to absorb the cost of a single-copy print run which is substantially higher than bulk. Plus there will be a bonus chapter for subscribers not available for those who buy individually later. This and signed and autographed print copies for all subscribers is how we're rewarding those folks who invested in us to make this all possible. Yeah, it's on the priciny side, but it's a BIG book with a small print run, so it's not going to be priced as cheaply as other bigger operations can do. "That blurb got me excited... I guess I should have waited & bought now.
