    Great Addition to the Collection

    These books look great and I'm very happy with my purchase. Also shipping was fast, especially considering it was international, and the books were well packed. Will definitely be watching Illumicrate for more of my favorites.

    Great buy!

    The Murderbot Diaries are some of my favorite books, and these special editions absolutely do them justice. The details are lovely, the dust jackets are really pretty and there's quotes and sketches of characters and events in the books on the hardbacks themselves. I love the end page art, even though it's not how I pictured some of the characters, I love the artist's renderings of the characters and events. They shipped fine, and Illumicrate always adds plenty of stuffing to make sure nothing gets damaged in shipping. Overall, they're beautiful, and I'm very happy with them!
