Joyland

There is no UK-versus-US precedence question: Hard Case Crime is an imprint of Titan Books (Titan Publishing Group Ltd, London), and one Titan setting served both markets within the same week, with the US on-sale date first. The paperback original is the first edition; the limited hardcover from Titan followed one week later, on 11 June 2013 — it is the first hardcover state, not a simultaneous issue as sometimes claimed. That hardcover appeared in three states — a gift edition of 1,500 copies, a numbered edition of 724 copies signed by King, and a lettered edition of 26 copies signed by King — all with different cover art by Robert McGinnis and a Joyland park map by Susan Hunt Yule, and all are collected separately from the paperback first.
