As part of our commitment to going “back to the future of publishing,” and based on the Mastermind’s obsession with bookbinding, Candlemark & Gleam has been offering handbound editions through our print pre-orders; now, you can get a handbound copy through the website, too!

Unlike the pre-ordered editions, these will not be signed, limited-edition copies. They will, however, be individually handbound.

We think the trend towards eBooks and the digital revolution is awesome, but we also remember the magic of holding a beautifully crafted book in our hands. We do our best to make sure our trade paperbacks are gorgeous – high-quality creamy paper, great covers, fabulous design – but the book isn’t just a content wrapper. It’s also a work of art, when done right. More mainstream publishers are starting to realize this, too, according to the New York Times. And around these here parts, we’re all about making beautiful, covet-able books.

Hence, our handbound editions.

First up is this one: Based loosely on the description of Erlen’s own notebook in the novel, we’ve created the handbound edition of Erekos.

 

It’s made by hand, to order, with all archival materials, so it’ll last for years of reading enjoyment.

Textured felted cover, handpainted gold lettering, and an exposed Coptic spine.

You can order a handbound edition (with free digital download bundled!) in our store.
