So, yeah, the first and only printing of Vornheim (a three year old book) went for 170$.
That's more than ten times the cover price for a 64-page black-and-white book. So if you're still on the fence about buying a second (or, god forbid, first) copy of 200ish page, full color, gold trimmed, embossed Red & Pleasant Land, there's one more reason.

ReplyDeleteZak, do you know if James plans on reprinting Vornheim? Do you know an approximate date for a reprinting?
ReplyDeleteshould be soon
DeleteSo, what you're saying is... we can hold off on beating people up for their copies of Vornheim. Maybe. Dependent on James.
ReplyDeleteI regretted not buying the print version while it was around.
ReplyDeleteSorry I couldn't find your email so I thought I would ask in the comments, my name is Andrew L Kolodziej and I run a blog called www.thedailyrpg.com and was wondering if you might be interested in exchanging links with me. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWhat does "exchange links" mean?
DeleteI think means place a link to his site on your site and he'll link to yours on his?
Deletewell, this tells me 2 things
ReplyDelete1) that this is a damn good book, and worth owning. and
2) REPRINT THE DAMN BOOK!
sorry, got a bit excited there...
I feel even luckier to have both of these books now (especially Vornheim).
ReplyDeleteAlice and Dracula? You are clearly insane. I must have and review this. And I shall since I just found a German shop that has it! YAY!
ReplyDeleteI used to read my copy of Vornheim it first, till it tired me; and then I kept it in a pouch next to my skin, till it galled me; and now usually I hide it in a hole in the rock. ... And still sometimes I read it, when I can not bear to be parted from it any longer, or when I am very, very hungry, and tired of slim jims.
ReplyDeleteWow I completely misread "hide it in a hole in the rock"; now there's something Rule 34 hasn't manifested yet (ow?). I love my RPG books as much as anyone, but I don't *love* love them. For those so inclined I can see how Vornheim might fit the bill - hot, fast, and a little dangerous. Maybe that's why someone was willing to throw down $170 to wrap their hands around the hard copy.
