In the interest of fairness to all, you may only purchase one (1) copy at a time. Do not add multiple books to your cart; these extra books will be canceled and refunded. In addition to this rule, for the first week after the General Sale begins, you may not buy duplicate copies of an edition: if you already own a Lettered edition, you are not eligible to buy another Lettered edition in the first week; if you already own a Numbered edition, you are not eligible to buy another Numbered edition in the first week.

A slipcase is available as an add-on to your purchase. Slipcases were made an optional add-on as part of the Kickstarter campaign for Empire of Silence, and we have elected to honor the optional nature of the slipcase for the remainder of the series. The slipcase is the same black imitation leather as the cover boards, and employs the same red foil in the stamped design, which features a round cut-out.
