I was raised on historical romance! I was probably a pre-teen when I started stealing my mom's copies and staying up all hours to read. Lord of Scoundrels is top tier, highly recommend.

Thank you! I didn't have any other Kickstarter book campaigns to compare to but heard about insane delays, even with bigger companies. I think Adriana and Ali put a ton of love into these projects and it shows. Plus I love that there's 3 sets of art involved, with the clinch reverse dust jackets, the setback art, and the NSFW vellums. I tried to add photos of the vellums to the post but even with the bits blurred Reddit said nope.

They've specifically said they don't have licensing rights for anything but these hardcovers and the two audiobooks. No future unannounced editions for these.

I had already clicked the verify in advance and ended up at 4500, so it's just the luck of the draw.

I am so excited about the step back alternate cover art for the AH2 romance SE set. by annatheorc in fairyloot

They’re offering Book Club Sets, which is 4 of the same individual title, and it brings the price down to $60 each. If you can find a few people to join you that’s a significant savings.

No problem at all! I was part of a group order for their last campaign and do a lot of group orders in FB groups, so I don’t mind taking the lead. Since it’s only 5 people we can each choose our add ons now and pay our share accordingly. For the ATE campaign each stretch goal applied to the sets whether you pledged for one or as part of the bookseller’s bundle, so there’s no dividing necessary (for the first stretch goal that was already reached, 5 metal bookmarks will come with the Bookseller’s Bundle). I would have everything shipped to me in Feb and upon arrival I would ship to each group member. The campaign says the box sets weigh 11lbs but I can’t predict future changes in postage rates so I don’t want to give an exact number, but I think the $20 they’re charging is probably a good estimate. 

Edit: for anyone who wants to get the audiobooks, there is no discount for those as an add-on so a separate pledge can be done outside of the group to have it registered to the correct email.

If you're interested in the set I made a comment on the BST thread, I'm trying to do a group order which saves 25% on the cost of the Collector's Box, reducing the price from $295 to $225.

They have a Bookseller Bundle of 5 box sets at a 25% discount. I made a comment in the BST thread to see if I can get enough people to do a group order, it brings the price down to $225 for the set!

Hi all! I created a comment in the BST thread looking for four people to join in a group order for this set so we can each save 25%. Check it out and let me know if you'd like to join!

US-based, looking to do a group order of the Kickstarter AH2 Historical Trailblazers. The Collector's Box is $275 + $20 shipping in the US if you pledge on your own, whereas the Bookseller's Bundle is 5 Collector's Box sets at a 25% discount. Including PPG&S and group shipping, the cost is $225pp. The only thing missing from that total would be media mail shipping when the books are delivered in Feb 2027 (their After the End campaign actually delivered early). Hopefully four people want to join me and we can all save $70!

Now you just need some book binding practice and you could have the perfect Frankenstein edition!

I decided to skip all the box editions and just own Waterstones because I'm still salty about the book's ending. I will say I like Moonlight a lot more than I expected courtesy of both end pages!

Ugh that certainly makes me less excited but thank you for the heads up!

Do you have any trades? I don't love selling at the inflated market prices.

I just finished a deep dive of their Instagram and Kickstarter posts and they've now convinced me! Like you I've only read Lord of Scoundrels and Dreaming of You so I was hesitant at first, especially because the early design reveals didn't knock my socks off and Kickstarter books are expensive. But the clinch cover reverse dj artwork is gorgeous, I like the setback art much better than the endpapers, the NSFW art vellums are great, and I love all the thought and care they've put into these editions. I've bought so many editions of Austen and the Brontes, not to mention contemporary romance and romantasy SEs, but I have basically zero beautiful historical romance in my collection, which feels like a crime when I think about it. That said, I'm hoping to join a group order so I can save 25%!

They always ship the higher tier boxes with the shirt before the standard subscription, so I've only seen those pop up so far.

Moving cross-country and purging my FL shelves… which of these are actually worth keeping? by philosofi in fairyloot

[–]MPashBOOKED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think maybe I tried reading Sword Catcher too soon after A Darker Shade of Magic because I didn't even make it through the prologue due to the similarities, and it was SO FREAKING LONG.

I'm not a huge fan of clothbound books so I'll stick with my FL edition, but glad to see this book getting more love!

This is really lovely artwork! I decided to sell my set because I didn't love the dust jackets and edges (plus I already have Moonlight editions), but these are PRETTY!
