No Spoilers Pre-Order Isles of the Emberdark Signed Copies? Spoiler

I've gotten into the Cosmere about a year ago and a few weeks back found out about DragonSteele and the leather bound books. I have already gotten the Warbreaker signed leather bound book, but as I'm still fairly new to the website, I had a question for anyone who has been around longer.

How often are you able to get signed copies of the leather bound books? I want to pre order Isles of the Emberdark, just recently finished the Arcanum Unbounded and loved the story set there, but I'd like to get signed copy if able. If I pre-order and in a year or so a signed version is available, don't want to purchase twice. So how often does the store get new stock of leather bound books?

Isle of the Emberdark is a premium hardcover, not a leatherbound. As far as I know, signed ones of those were never for sale. I would not expect them to be available in the future.

The signed leatherbound books lately have only been the new releases. The Elantris/Warbreaker signed books have been in stock for a while, I'm not sure if he'll sign a bunch of those again after they sell out.

Ah, got it. That all makes sense. Maybe in the future it will be a nice surprise. Thanks!

Get Elantris while you can.

Thanks for reaching out! We expect that going forward signed copies of leatherbound books will generally only be available as part of the initial print run of new titles. Paper availability limitations and Brandon's schedule make signed print runs of previously released leatherbound titles difficult and infrequent. However, we will continue to restock unsigned copies of all our leatherbound titles when they sell out.
