Keeper of the Lost Cities #1 Signed First Printing + Upcoming KotLC Posts

Over a year ago, I posted about my quest to find all of the Keeper of the Lost Cities books in first printing copies.  I found a first printing of #2 early last year, and that left me with just #1 to find. 

It took a year to finally get there.

In late March, I found two copies of #1 in first printing copies, one of which was signed.




It was pretty exciting to finally find a signed copy of the true first printing of #1.  The series was unknown at that time, and it's been apparent from my online searches that the first print run of #1 was quite small.  

Also, I've been kicking around some other theories.  This has to do with some characters mentioned/featured in #9.5 Unraveled.  This post will be designated as spoiler-free, so I'll be vague.  If you've read Unraveled, then you know that late in the story Keefe has an interaction with a character on the streets of London.  I think I've figured something out.  It just clicked yesterday.

I have two new Keeper posts written.  One involves the KotLC fan echo chamber where the "group think" ideas are all that can be discussed.  The other one explains what I now think about two certain Keeper characters.  I may not get those posts published for a couple weeks.  Whenever I have new thoughts, I like to mull them over and edit them until I have them the way I want.
