"Earth Abides" is truly timeless.

[Dnto]

"New Bookpilled just dropped!"

*drops everything to watch*

[Arational]

Keep your eyes pealed for Mick Farren, especially The DNA Cowboys trilogy.

[zardoz_the_great]

"That's gotta be a rare book"
*throws it carelessly back into the box*

So jealous of your finds, looking forward to the Roadside Picnic review, one of my favourites.

Robert Silverberg is SO underrated. He always delivers.

[HigrationsMintergrund]

I'm so jealous man, I live in Germany and I have to order all the vintage scifi books over ebay so I can enjoy them here... Only great books you show us!!!

"Lord of Light" is one of the five I'd take to a desert island with me.

Those books would be my dream collection! I have some of them, but most I have never read. Have you heard of the "12 Planets of the Intergalactic Map" series? Book 3 called "The Vandekirians" was just released. It's main plot is: "What happens when 12 civilizations from different planets meet for the very first time? Will their common origin unite them? Or will they destroy each other?" The world-building alone is so imaginative and creative to behold, and the character-driven and grand mythos of this universe the author has created is very engaging and mesmerizing.

A World Out of Time is one of my favorite Niven novels.

[JohnInTheShelter]

Damn, what a haul. Cordwainer Smith is a write I wish more readers would investigate. THE INSTRUMENTALITY hardcover is one of my most precious possessions. He had a VISION--that's what I love in a writer, a unique look at the world. Ellison...Leiber...AH! Enjoy your reading, man, good stuff coming you way.

Roadside Picnic is so freakin rad. When I saw the previews for Annihilation, I couldn't help but think it was a nearly direct ripoff of Roadside...ultimately this detracted from the movie because I couldn't separate the two in my head. Still a great movie on its own, but it makes me want a new adaptation of Roadside. If you haven't seen the Tarkovsky adaptation Stalker, I highly recommend. It's a very moody and dark film, but it definitely captures the essence of Roadside.

On and off for about 6 months, I've been trying to remember the name of a book I read long ago. As soon as I saw it, I knew it was Niven's A world out of Time. Thanks, its been killing me.
Shockwave Rider! I love that book.

Neverness - 1st of the series and good place to start. The one you got is it’s beautiful original paperback. Slow psychological and philosophical character drama. Series ramps up in pace as the books go on.

Save that and read it asap. 🎉

I haven't read that Mike McQuay Robot Series book, but his Mathew Swain series of pulpy, sci-fi, noir fiction novels is absolutely awesome. McQuay wrote a good bunch of stuff on his own, a load of pulpy series material (like the Robot Series and Mack Bolan books), and a collaboration with Arthur C. Clarke called Richter 10. I'd suggest the Swaim series as a beginning and if you were a fan of Escape from New York (the movie) he wrote that novelization.

Your videos give me a sense of enormous wellbeing

I read wizard of the pidgeons a long time ago, thought it was pretty good at the time, cant remember much about the plot now. Great haul of books though.

[drmidnight]

The Peirs Anthony book must be scarce because I never saw that one back in the day when I was collecting sf paperbacks.
I can paint these covers in acrylic. I show my paintings around and people who know nothing about SF also like them, both men and women.
The cover art is part of the reason these books sold when they were new. And they sold lots of them.

This immortal has been at the top of my tbr for awhile now. The cover on it is fantastic!

[mescalito]

For your information : Gérard Klein is a French author.

That pebble in sky book is awesome. Great finds man!
