The Vellum Media Preorder Is Open

Blog, Maggie, Merch POST A COMMENT June 8, 2026 by Ilona

::braces self:

If you missed the previous post, here are the highlights:

  • This is preorder, because our printer stocks vellum specifically for us and we don’t know what the demand will be.
  • The preorder will run 06/08/2026 to 07/08/2026; at which point it will start shipping.
  • US only for now. Working on UK, CA, and AUS. Need a fulfillment center for each.
  • We will include a map of Kair Toren by Becka Designs Cartography – the contracts has been sent, so unless something goes wrong, it will be in there.
  • If you want your bookplate personalized, write it in at the time of order in order notes.
  • The stickers will be random and may include other designs if we run out of what we have

You can find the link to the store in the banner above or you can click this button.

VELLUM PREORDER

Update: as of now, the orders have exceeded the initial print run expectations by 50% 150%. We are at 500% 800% 1,200% of the original estimated print run now.

PS: For everyone in the US who ordered the UK hardcover edition of This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me, UK hardback-sized vellum inserts will be added to the US store later this week, for US shipment only.

We are staggering the listings to avoid the confusion of two different sizes during the initial preorder rush. For reference, the UK hardback is the 16.5 x 4.1 x 24.2 cm edition.

    Is there enough vellum in the world to satisfy the BDH?
    Stay tuned to the next global shortage…🤣🤣🤣

    Question for the store overseers: which category does the International hard cover (listed as International HB on the Special Editoons page) fit into?
    US vellum fits
    UK vellum fits
    no vellum fits

      You can check dimensions in book listings 🙂

      International HB : 241mm x 164mm x40mm

      US hardback: 6.6 × 1.4 × 9.5 inches

      UK hardback: 16.5 × 4.1 × 24.2 cm

      Allowing for everyone listing their dimensions in different units and in different order, it looks like International HB is the same/within 1 mm from the UK edition.

    Love the 1,200% Update! 😍 the BDH is mighty 😂 (and apparently always underestimated by House Andrews 😂)

    Hooray for snippet!

    I love the ‘ratting out your siblings’ bit, especially.

    Thank you, thank you for adding the UK sizes for the U.S. soon. I’m excited!

    I didn’t realize the UK edition was a different size when I pre-ordered the vellum inserts. Is there any way to change my order when the new size is added to the store? How badly did I screw this up?

    Have the vellums for the UK Waterstones edition been posted yet? I’ve tried to be chalant and started checking just “late last week,” but I still haven’t seen them and wasn’t sure if I missed the link somewhere.

    • Moderator R says

      June 15, 2026 at 11:17 am

      No, they will be posted probably at the end of this week 🙂

      • ATMi says

        June 15, 2026 at 4:13 pm

        Thanks Mod R! Will keep holding back my chalant-ness then. (I got both the US and UK Waterstones versions because, hey BDH, and am hoping to place one order for both vellum sets.)

    I’m correcting a regrettable misunderstanding.

    HAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHA

    This book cannot come out soon enough. Sorry.
