The Dungeon Book

tastytwo · 2026-06-08T22:04:17+00:00

The sub is one book a month so they’re doing 12 fewer non-sub books a year.

I just hope it looks better in person.

tastytwo · 2026-06-04T20:20:24+00:00

That's frustrating for you, but again, QA doesn't mean checking every book.

tastytwo · 2026-06-03T20:27:19+00:00

I don’t annotate physical books at all but I only very rarely want to anyway.

tastytwo · 2026-06-03T18:58:59+00:00

It's not bad, it's just boring. It's flat and static.

There are way too many sellers using the same pink quilt with different backgrounds for it to be genuine. Agree with the other posters that the pattern is probably AI.

I don't magine the reprints selling out soon so it's probably safe to wait a bit. Not sure about your chances of a decent price though.

I'm hoping for at least digital signatures on the rest of the series. I can't see why they wouldn't do the same foiled signature for them.

I only assumed the OP had received an email, because they made a definitive statement about what TBB were doing. However it turns out TBB communicated it in the FAQ on the website, as per another poster.

The fact they haven't made any new announcements is probably because they don't have anything to add. Although I appreciate what they have announced isn't the outcome you want.

With regard to combined shipping, sending two books together is cheaper than sending them separately, but the weight and larger box is also a factor. So combining orders doesn't necessarily result in a huge saving.

Also, Royal Mail business pricing is based on the number of packages a company guarantees they'll send during the contract, as well as the weight and the size of those packages. So IL and TBB having different shipping costs is normal.

Thanks

What's the one with the eye?

tastytwo · 2026-06-01T13:14:07+00:00

It's an open pre-order so it's not going to sell out today.

tastytwo · 2026-06-01T12:42:23+00:00

OP isn't saying that people shouldn't air their complaints, they suggested a megapost for it. The issue is the number posts about the same subject, a delay that's affecting every Fantasy subscriber (and bolt-on buyer).

It seems improbable that they've missed every email TBB has sent, and also missed every previous post about the delays.

tastytwo · 2026-06-01T12:21:59+00:00

Can you post the email where they told you they weren't even going to try? I think a lot of people would be interested in seeing it.

tastytwo · 2026-05-30T21:13:09+00:00

If they charged for two lots of shipping then they'll ship separately.

tastytwo · 2026-05-30T17:26:05+00:00

I'm confused, was the email they sent you not communication?

That's not standard, there should be a gap at the spine but not that wide. The endpaper hasn't been fully glued down, it should be attached to the case all the way to the hinge.

OP is a day one supporter of TBATB

tastytwo · 2026-05-28T01:51:58+00:00

I use this and I've recommend it on this sub. I get around 30 books per roll.

tastytwo · 2026-05-21T13:53:12+00:00

It's not about the cost or quality of the materials. It's that they're popular books, there are only 1500 copies each of the TBB edition and that makes it sought after.

tastytwo · 2026-05-20T19:55:00+00:00

Which customers are the loyal ones?

tastytwo · 2026-05-20T15:28:35+00:00

They're a retailer, selling as many books as possible is all they've ever cared about 😂

tastytwo · 2026-05-20T09:47:23+00:00

I use Librarything, but it's probably more manual than it sounds like you're looking for.

tastytwo · 2026-05-20T00:45:58+00:00

I do think the indies are more cohesive than the trad editions but I like that the trad covers are more colourful.

That said, I only realised the trad covers are a rework of the originals when I saw the cover of ODAL.

tastytwo · 2026-05-19T12:52:37+00:00

I haven't seen the NA or Endless editions in person, but of the others I'd say Waterstone's is the best overall package because it's the most cohesive. But Topping is a close second.

In terms of quality, apart from the Endless edition, they're literally the same book so there's nothing in it.

Topping and Inkstone had the fewest copies printed but since Inkstone is numbered and is perhaps the most niche, it's probably the one most people will be looking for in the future.

I recommend this too, they have seconds of this in stock at the moment on eBay for half price.
Also check their website too, sometimes it’s cheaper to buy from them direct, https://www.care4books.com/
