Limited Edition, numbered 135 of 300 and signed by Dan Simmons.


This is not just any ordinary item. It is a precious collectible that holds a special allure. The fact that it is limited to only 300 copies and numbered 135 makes it even more unique.


Accompanying this limited edition is a short story that delves into the many ways people die. The author, Dan Simmons, presents a thought-provoking concept with the statement, "Death is a Pepsi truck with no place to go."


This short story takes readers on a journey through the various manifestations of death. It makes us ponder the inevitability of this universal experience and the different paths that lead to it.


Whether it is a sudden accident, a lingering illness, or an unexpected event, death can come in many forms. Simmons' words encourage us to reflect on the meaning and significance of our own lives and how we approach the inevitable end.


This limited edition, with its signed copy and captivating short story, is a must-have for collectors and those interested in exploring the deeper themes of life and death.

Limited to three hundred numbered copies and one hundred deluxe copies specially bound, all of which have been signed by the author.


Unfortunately, for most of us, the chance of reading this particular work is rather slim. It is a limited edition, and it is not available in libraries, at least not in any of the ones I researched. One used copy is listed on Amazon for a whopping $99, and Abebooks has several for sale at even higher prices.


However, there is some good news. As of 7/17/11, this novella is included in Dan Simmons' book of novellas called Lovedeath. This means that those who are interested in reading it may now have a better chance of getting their hands on a copy.


If you do manage to pick up a copy of this novella, whether it's the original limited edition or from the Lovedeath collection, please do let us know what you think. We would love to hear your thoughts and opinions on this unique piece of literature.
