Which is just fine with me. Paid good money for a book. Not porn.

Yes! I thought 'Phantom' was SUCH a well done book. I thought it was just as good, if not even better then the original. I could actually feel Erik, and know exactly what was going through with him during the whole book. Especially when he was with the architect. It's my favorite book right now, and I'm so excited it's going back into print.

Chapters does not even know that the book is even being published again...
Grr...
So I PM''ed the publisher of the Publishing Company...
Asking if they were going to distruibute the book to other stores...
I''m awaiting a reply...
Edit: Well not anymore I just checked my junk box
(I have a high filter set on lol)
and I got a reply!!!!
Here is what I wrote

~*~*~*~

I noticed that your company is reprinting the Susan Kay, Phantom novel. I am greatly interested in purchasing said novel, but have come to a tragic roadblock. Due to my parents lack of trust in the internet, and me not having my own credit card, I am unable to purchase items online from any other place then Chapters.Indigo.ca
I was curious if the novel was only selling on your website, or if you will distribute it to other bookstores/online book stores to sell as well?
I have read Gaston Leurox''s original Phantom of the Opera novel and fell greatly inlove with the story, but as stated on your website... the novel left more questions then answers. I desperately wish to purchase and read Susan Kay''s version of the sad tale.
If you have not considered it already, I hope this email atleast convinces you to consider distributing the novel to other stores. It will help to share the beauty of the story.

I am sorry if my email was by any chance an inconvience for you, but I felt that this idea needed to be stated. Thank you for reading, and I hope you consider.

This was the reply!

Hi Samantha,
We will be distributing the book through as many channels as we can. But we''re planning to save most of this first run for the fans who helped get the book reprinted. It will be in the bookstores. I''m just not sure when as yet.

Sincerely,
Deborah Greenspan
Llumina Press

~*~*~*~

EEEEEEE I actually got a reply!!
And I sent the email TODAY!!!
Wow... <.<....
*giggles* I''m so happy...
I hope they sell it in chapters! I desperately want a copy!
The cover is so pretty!!!



So there is one question answered...
the novel WILL be sold in as many stores as possible!

When they do the second run,
it's going entirely to stores I believe!

whee I'm very excited about getting it - whenever I read phanphiction I see loads of references to 'Phantom', but second hand copies are so expensive D:

Did anyone here enter the cover design contest ( http://www.llumina.com/phantomcontestpics.htm )? I didn't, I am talentless D:
PostPosted: Sun Sep 25, 2005 9:54 am


I'm so excited. I can't wait to get it. As most of you know by now, my parents wouldn't let me buy it, so I went crying to one of my friends and he bought it for me... I can't WAIT to get it. D:
