Books : Dark Tower V Wolves of the Calla X18 Dbn (DARK TOWER)
by: Stephen King £450.00

Hello? A book kosting 450 pound sterling? What is is made of, pure gold? Can
anyone tell me why these are so special? I'm getting a more regular copy for
christmas (I hope), so i haven't gotten DTV yet, but this price knocked my
socks off... And I can't find why its price is so high anywhere. Must be
very special. Anyone have a clue?
Take care,
Jo

Probably a Signed and Numbered Limited Grant edition that is limited to 1300
copies. Those usually go up very quickly. Who is offering it?<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

It's a display case that contains 18 copies of the book. 18 X £25 = £450.

I'm pretty sure I'll read it more than once or twice, but I don't think I'm
gonna read it 18 times!

Ah! Now that makes sense! I'd never seen that being offered up online before
though. Interesting. Thanks:)
