Ferris reads from most weeks:The NEW AND MASSIVELY EXPANDED 4th edition is available in four formats. For a limited time, they're at a discount. OUR PRICES ARE CRIMINALLY INSANE!! Your options are...1) The Uncut Standard Version: Paperback, 6x9”, 639 pages, includes a full index, annotated endnote citations, and a works cited / bibliography section.2) The Oversize Version: This monster paperback is 8.5x11”, 580 pages, with larger type. The format has size limits, so it omits the standalone works cited section and a few of the less awesome photos. It still includes the full annotated endnote citations and 50 b&w photos. The full real content is there.3) The ebook has no index, but it's cheap, and it features two additional appendices, with mostly color photos.4) The paperback 6x9” Long Story Short… and Cheaper Version runs 400 pages. It features full research citations, and most b&w photos, but no appendices, index or standalone works cited section. It's the story of Slayer, and nothing but. You're missing a ton of good stuff. But, hey, it's your money and time. Do what you will. We get it.If you want to buy an autographed copy directly, reach out: slayerbook@gmail.com
