BLACK HOUSE

First UK edition, first printing. Signed by the author Peter Straub. Publisher's original black boards with silver titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. An excellent near fine copy, the binding square and firm with a little bumping to the spine tips and board edges, the boards bright and fresh. The contents, with a tiny production flaw (small nick) to the top edge of a couple of pages, are otherwise clean throughout and without previous owners' marks. Complete with the lightly rubbed and creased dustwrapper that is without fading, loss or tears. Not price-clipped (£17.99 to the lower front flap).

Signed by Peter Straub in black ink on the title page. A sequel to 'The Talisman', this is the second of two collaboration novels by King and Straub. Nominated for the Bram Stoker Award for Best Novel. The UK and American first edition were published simultaneously on 15 September 2001. A third novel in 'The Talisman' series, written by King alone after the passing of Straub in 2022, is scheduled for release in October 2026.
