SIGNED LIMITED EDITION OF ONLY 500 WITH ORIGINAL PUBLISHER ISSUED DESIGNER SLIPCASE



Hodder & Stoughton 2009. Stephen King "Under The Dome" Signed Limited edition of only 500 copies signed by Stephen King. Signed and numbered collector's edition in protective slipcase. Designed with four-color printed endpapers, a ribbon marker, and a set of 27 special trading cards featuring drawings of characters from the book (drawn by cartoonist Matthew Diffee). Number is uknown since the volume is sealed.

This edition is more rare then the US limited edition, with 1/3 of the copies produced. This special edition was clearly designed as a S/L edition with a dedicated slipcase and limitation page. This is in contrast to the US edition which only had Stephen King's signature on a blank page and no slipcase. According to this moderator post, the edition is limited to 500 copies because that's how many SK was willing to sign at the time.

 

COLLECTOR'S SET: SIGNED LIMITED EDITION & CARDS

 

Don’t miss the “harrowing” (The Washington Post) #1 New York Times bestselling thriller from Stephen King that inspired the hit television series, following the apocalyptic scenario of a town cut off from the rest of the world.

 

"Under the Dome"

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when--or if--it will go away.

 

Dale Barbara, Iraq vet and now a short-order cook, finds himself teamed with a few intrepid citizens--town newspaper owner Julia Shumway, a physician's assistant at the hospital, a select-woman, and three brave kids. Against them stands Big Jim Rennie, a politician who will stop at nothing--even murder--to hold the reins of power, and his son, who is keeping a horrible secret in a dark pantry. But their main adversary is the Dome itself. Because time isn't just short. It's running out.

 

Wikipedia entry:

 
Under the Dome is a 2009 science fiction novel by American author Stephen King. It is the 58th book published by King, and it is his 48th novel. The novel focuses on a small Maine town, and tells an intricate, multi-character, alternating perspective story of how the town's inhabitants contend with the calamity of being suddenly cut off from the outside world by an impassable, invisible glass dome-like barrier that seemingly falls out of the sky, transforming the community into a domed city.
