The Lost

Jack Ketchum · Leisure (Dorchester) · 2001

Both the Leisure paperback and the Cemetery Dance hardcover appeared in 2001; several source listings suggest the Cemetery Dance hardcover may have preceded the Leisure paperback, but firm precedence between the two 2001 issues is not established. The Leisure paperback original is commonly cited as the first edition, while the Cemetery Dance signed limited (and the 52-copy lettered state) is the collector's issue.
