The book sounds great! Got its attention in an online shop because of the great artwork. 36:00 But I've the same problems with it as you do. I'm no big Gaiman-fan and I don't want to be patronized. It appears that is collection is a victim of its time. Unfortunately you can't give it the 'dead poets' treatment, because of the content warnings in front of every chapter.
This was awesome. I never knew he was the most-decorated author of all time
I love silverberg but I haven’t been so keen on what I have read post 70’s. I put down star of gypsies this week because I really wasn’t in the mood for the fantasy and the humorous tone. I will try it again when in a better mood. Can’t wait to read some of the earlier works not read yet though.
After 'Shadrach in the Furnace' he took a few years off. When he returned, something had left him- I collect and read the later ones, but they are not the same as the 66-76 stuff, all of which is amazing. He was fed up of putting his soul into his books, getting great reviews but no bestsellers. So he made it less personal and then had a bestselling trilogy....
awesome news, steve. that is definitely something to look forward to. take care of yourself, buddy!
In another video you called the collection The New Tomorrows edited by Spinrad as the best new wave anthology.
I did.
For Disch, another good starting point is Puppies of Terra, aka Whitefang Goes Dingo.
Yes, covered in my Disch overview. 'White Fang Goes Dingo' is the short story title, the alternative title of the novel is 'Mankind Under The Leash'.
I've read some of Shea's mythos stories but had no idea about his sword and sorcery writing or that he wrote a sequel to Eyes of the Overworld. "Against the World. Against Life" is indeed a monumental title. Fantastic video. I now have a Nifft book in the mail.
You were lucky to find any Nifft title. Watch more of this channel and you'll learn more about SFF...
Too bad I'm stateside. Don't mind me, I'm just the kid outside the candy store with his face smushed up against the glass wishing I could eat some chocolate. Cheers Steve. - Sean Ford
Very nice looking books. I might grab used copy of frontera from amazon. It sounded interesting.
It's excellent. There was a print on demand trade a few yrs back, hideous design, but great book.
Some great books there. Best wishes.
I'd love the Benfords but I live in France. 😔 I have a paperback copy of Bear's Slant with the same cover, bought here for €1 😀 I also have a copy of Clockwork Orange in a 1973 edition - it has the nadsat glossary but is divided into 3 parts, each with separately numbered chapters, so no chapter 21 as such. Good luck with the sale - some cracking stuff there (I'd also like the Disch, but tant pis).
I love Michael Moorcock. I already have 90% of his books though.
What are you missing? I used to have pretty much everything, but I have sold some of the margu=inal stuff- nonfiction, chapbooks etc.
Hi Steve, apologies for asking further questions but what is your asking price for the Hodgson book? I don't think you state it in the video. Thanks
Put in a bid, but not below £10. Cheers.
Didn’t like World of Tiers?! Oh well, too bad I’m not in the UK, I’d gladly take the Philip Jose Farmer books off your hands. PJF is my buddy, he comes over to my house all the time and we lift weights & punch dinosaurs
I may get back to you on that. I have a five volume set, hardcovers, two signed, beautiful set. I love some Farmer, but not these.
@@outlawbookselleroriginal Just to spare you any more typing (sorry!), that was more of a wishful what-if post than a serious offer. I live in the United States and I'm also super budget conscious (i.e., poor) so I don't buy anything fancy that a more serious collector might want. I usually just get the cheapest, most beat-up reading copies I can find on eBay. Sorry for the confusion I may have created and I wish you success in finding a home for those books!
@@CptSamelsSigils Thanks
The Mule 🐴 made you fall. I am about 2/3 in to foundations edge and I am enjoying it so much.
Great video, I Just finished it and loved it. As I read more new wave SF I’m finding that a lot of it is more about the people dealing with a weird situation and not necessarily the tech or aliens. But I understand why people keep saying that this shouldn’t be considered SF
Watch my 'elements of Science Fiction' series here for a real understanding of how SF is structured. But yes, it is not just a collection of tropes.
I will take all your signed Ballard Cape hardcovers for the £20 asking price, Or was that just my afternoon fevered cheese dream?
LOL. They're part of the Mediterranean getaway retirement plan....
Oh, to own a book from the Outlaw Bookseller's collection. Sadly, alas, I am in the US.
Those Asimov books are absolutely mint, you don't see that often!
