Dear Tolkien Estate,
If we can make epic fantasy books by a complete nobody look this good in comparison with the best that our competitors have done with your wonderful books, imagine how much more we could do with yours?
Love,
Castalia Library
Seriously, we have an amazing design in mind for those books already. As should be obvious from the picture, A SEA OF SKULLS volumes I and II have shipped out to subscribers. And in other shipping news, SWISS FAMILY ROBINSON has arrived at the warehouse and the shipments to subscribers are beginning this week.
Now, I cannot stress this enough. If you want to receive your books where you are living now, ALWAYS TELL CASTALIA SHIPPING WHERE YOU ARE VIA EMAIL. Do not use the online system at the store to update your address and think that the information will somehow magically end up in the right place. Do not email Vox or anyone who is not Castalia Shipping. The one place to ensure your books will arrive in the right place is Castalia Shipping, so please keep them updated as to your whereabouts and respond appropriately to shipping notifications. If you’re in any doubt at all, send them an email with your current address.

And in other Library news, Fandom Pulse ran a nice story about The Legend Chuck Dixon announcing his latest novel, GUNS OF MARS.
ANNOUNCING!
My latest novel!
It's GUNS OF MARS, an adventure set on the world of Barsoom, created by Edgar Rice Burroughs!
This story takes place 1000 years after the events of the last of ERB's Mars novels and tells the tale of a dying world where water is more precious than gold. A bounty hunter forms an uneasy alliance with an outlaw thark to look for the fabled Eye of Water, a deep spring that may not even exist.
Along the way they face betrayals, renegade raiders, mankillers, and the wild and dangerous flora and fauna that stalks the deserts and canals of a planet facing extinction. And, every step of the way, they are stalked by a mysterious gunman with a past cloaked in secrecy.
This one is first being released in a limited, signed edition bound in artisan leather.
There will be a cloth hardcover to follow as well as an e-book






We have that same set as well, but i would definitely go for a Castalia binding of LOTR any day! I hope they say yes!!
Things are looking up and if I'm able, I will be buying every single thing you make. My 9 books want some new friends. It's funny. I tell the "educated" people that I know about Castalia History and there is zero interest. It's truly mind blowing.
