The listing, Hearts In Atlantis Hardcover Book By Stephen King Tiered Auction READ AD has ended.

Hello everyone!! I'm doing another tiered auction on books. For every 50,000 credits, I will include another gently used Stephen King's book and yes, it will be a different title. The higher the credits, the more books you'll get. Let's have a little fun with this and remember, Christmas is right around the corner. So, for your first book, you'll get Hearts in Atlantis by Stephen King.

Hearts In Atlantis is composed of five interconnected, sequential narratives set in the years from 1960 to 1999. Each story is deeply rooted in the sixties, and each is haunted by the Vietnam War. In "Low Men in Yellow Coats," eleven-year-old Bobby Garfield discovers a world of predatory malice in his own neighborhood and that adults are sometimes not rescuers but at the heart of the terror. In the title story, a bunch of college kids get hooked on a card game, discover the possibility of protest...and confront their own collective heart of darkness, where laughter may be no more than the thinly disguised cry of the beast. In "Blind Willie" and "Why We're in Vietnam," two men who grew up with Bobby in suburban Connecticut try to fill the emptiness of the post-Vietnam era in an America which sometimes seems as hollow and haunted as their own lives. And in "Heavenly Shades of Night Are Falling," Bobby returns to his hometown where one final secret, and his heart's desire may await him. Full of danger, suspense, and full of heart, Hearts In Atlantis takes some listeners to a place they have never been...and others to a place they have never been able to completely leave.

There's no GIN option as I want this to be a fun and fair auction for everyone. It's free shipping within the USA. Lastly, when you do get this, please leave a positive feedback so I can return the favor. Thank you and Happy Bidding!!

PS Remember, for every 50,000 credits bids that are placed, you'll get another book. Believe you me, I have A LOT of books to give away!

Perhaps tantalize us with what the next book will be? I think what is hurting everyone right now is the inflation. I want to say when this auction started it was close to $1 USD for 19,000 in a few days time it is at 21,500 and could easily be 25,000 by Sunday.

I wouldn't know what to put up next, since I have a bunch of his books. Perhaps the next book can be Faithful or Bag Of Bones? I hear you about the inflation going up and down. Sounds like a stock market. lol I wonder how it is that it can go so high and then drop suddenly. I believe it has to do with the people who are selling their credits for money. I don't know, I'm just as clueless about it as everyone else. :)

^ Darn and I was hoping you were going to have the answers LOL. Still it was a great auction and still has potential to skyrocket like most do at the end.

I hope it'll skyrocket too. Seems like everyone always wait til the end. Who am I to talk, I'm guilty of that too. lol

is this a 1st edition?
Oct 3rd, 2016 at 11:48:05 AM PDT by

Good question. I believe they both are, but I'm going by the manufacturing number that they have in there. Hearts in Atlantis # is 3-5-7-9-10-8-6-4 and The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon Is 1-3-5-7-9-10-8-6-4-2. I did some research with those numbers online and it states that they are indeed First Edition.

Examples:
"1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10"
"10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1"
"1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2"
all indicate a first edition.

To research this yourself, I've used this site, www.abebooks.com

Now, if I'm wrong, by all means, please correct me. I'm used to looking for the words First Edition, but for some reasons, they are now doing away with that in place of numbers. Hope this helps!
