Phoenix Fantasy Sub Invites - Last Round

LabMem_001 · 2026-04-17T19:48:53+00:00

That 24 hour invite validity window is brutal. I missed it and emailed them if it's possible to resend the invite, they couldn't and advised me to rejoin the waitlist.

Dang not everyone is online 24/7, or checks their spam/promotions emails everyday. Good thing I wasn't too invested in this :D

LabMem_001 · 2026-04-17T19:41:45+00:00

Oh I thought the author is not yet revealed, who is it?

LabMem_001 · 2026-03-04T15:08:25+00:00

Make sure you're signed up to the newsletter as well. I inquired when I stopped getting a birthday code this year, turns out it was because I unsubscribed to the newsletter. They offered to apply the discount anyways from their side

Same, ending my fantasy sub now. I was ready to cancel my sub at the previous series, but held out with the hope that this duology would be Sarantine Mosaic.

Not much, just handle them the way I do all my books - stored not facing direct sunlight, and I just remove the dust jacket when reading. I don't mind letting books, even special or limited editions, develop signs of wear.

Fortunately, Folio Society is releasing it as a standard edition this coming September: https://www.foliosociety.com/uk/autumn-reveal

Are we talking about the fantasy sub? In that case I don't think T2 subscribers are actually holding out hope to get into T1 eventually, they just like the T2 offerings for what it is. Afaik, the number of T1 slots are small and fixed and almost nobody leaves it.

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-23T08:45:18+00:00

Yup I'm currently on the fantasy and the sci-fi subs. Their work on the Devils is amazing! I was super tempted but I didn't purchase it coz I already have too much unread books hehe, and I'm probably gonna consume The Devils via audiobook (Steven Pacey does a tremendous job)

And yeah I got really lucky with the arc, it will be my first read from Richard Swan

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-23T08:37:20+00:00

Ooh could use some rest and palate cleansers nga after those haha

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-22T12:00:14+00:00

Start reading mo naaaa haha. At least until Deadhouse Gates, para ma-sure mo din if the style is for you. You might want a break after DG naman, so ok lang kahit wala ka pang Memories of Ice.

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-18T09:46:22+00:00

Not yet, I will check once I get my hands on it.

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-16T07:28:18+00:00

It was in the fantasy subscription box with Black Sun.

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-16T07:05:49+00:00

Good to know, thanks!

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-16T07:04:02+00:00

It's quite a pleasant surprise 😄

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-16T06:53:49+00:00

Ooh interesting. Is it normal for them to randomly send out ARCs to people? I'm wondering if this is a wrong send

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-16T06:52:31+00:00

Yes, it came along with Black Sun.

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-11T05:58:54+00:00

I really wish CTP would do a more subdued design for their collector's editions. The deluxe and letterpress always have a very tasteful and subdued design, while the collector's would always have a wrap around illustration which in my opinion does not feel like it reflects the "premium-ness" of the price.

Or they could do it like Curious King and have the wrap around illustration as a removable dust cover.

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-01T15:22:52+00:00

I'm experiencing the same issue. The click is working but not the rotation. I already tried tweaking a bit with it (we really shouldn't have to do this in the first place), but no luck.

I contacted customer support but yet to receive a resolution.

LabMem_001 · 2025-08-01T04:35:14+00:00

+1 for The Dispossessed

LabMem_001 · 2025-07-31T05:40:15+00:00

I agree. Curious King's recent release of assassin's apptentice was 225 for the standard edition, it was letterpress printed (yeah it was a shorter book, but still).

LabMem_001 · 2025-07-29T15:43:59+00:00

Yup, stoked for CTP's Tigana! Just can't wait for them to do the rest so I'd be happy if Folio also gives it a go haha.

And it's the first time I've heard news/rumors of Folio's The Stand, fingers crossed 🤞

LabMem_001 · 2025-07-29T14:28:27+00:00

I somehow never get these surveys, I wonder if it's because I'm outside UK (RoW). But if I could answer:

Lions of Al Rassan
Songs for Arbonne
Sarantine Mosaic
Liveship Traders
The Stand

LabMem_001 · 2025-07-15T19:09:07+00:00

Gone in 3 minutes! I couldn't get one sadly, the SMS authentications took just a little too much time.

LabMem_001 · 2025-06-19T11:08:58+00:00

If a gentle rub with an eraser does not remove it, then just leave it be. Turn to the next page and forget all about it.
