    Congratulations on a fine haul! It’s always enjoyable to get many books from a favorite author. The glass tower book and the world inside sound interesting, I agree.

      Thank you sir! Reading Nightwings at the moment and really enjoying it.

    You definitely have upped your game. The new camera is a great addition. The thumbnail is eye-catching, and you certainly present with more comfortably.

    That thumbnail! 😂 I really enjoyed the world inside and the stochastic man

      @ those sphere editions look fantastic. Hard to find non-US Silverberg in Canada (damn copyright lol)

      There are so many great US covers that I can't get too

    Jack the guy on the cover of Time Hoppers looks like Clint Howard, Balok from Star Trek’s “The Corbomite Maneuver".

      Hahaha I had to look that up since I'm not a Trekkie. I see what you mean!

    Up the Line is my favourite by Silverberg - and it’s in my personal Top Ten SF books I ever read - so I do hope you give it a go. Dying Inside comes close.

      I will definitely read it, glad to hear that. Might do a Silverberg ranking video after I've read a good amount of his work.

      We don't even have that cereal here in the UK so it's a joke that I'm sure is lost on most of my British viewers. Thanks for watching!

    Great haul! I haven't got to Robert silverberg as of yet but I've got the world inside and Lord valentine's castle to get to at some point next year.

    • @SciFiFinds
      @SciFiFinds  Месяц назад

      Thanks mate, look forward to hearing your opinions. I haven't got Lord Valentine's Castle yet since I believe it skews a bit further toward fantasy than most of his other work.

    I just picked up that same edition of The World Inside! I'm thinking of adding it to my January TBR

    • @SciFiFinds
      @SciFiFinds  Месяц назад +1

      Maybe I will read it at the same time and we can discuss! Sounds really intriguing

      @@bookspin it’s an entertaining novel. Brave new world collides with the seventies

    Those silverberg novels are all bangers. Wish I knew where to get in such good condition. WOB will send out stuff in poor condition when they describe as very good condition

    • @SciFiFinds
      @SciFiFinds  Месяц назад +1

      I've found the same with WOB. I got these on ebay where you can often see pictures of the books from multiple angles. Thanks for watching and commenting. Do you have a favourite one?

    • @nicholasjones3207
      @nicholasjones3207 Месяц назад

      @ it’s written in a different style to most other silverberg books I have read, but I have a fondness for nightwings (btw I think it’s expanded in the novel compared with the short story version). Also dying inside is very good.

    I know you said time travel stories aren't always your jam, but if you're down to read a manga, I highly recommend Steins;Gate. Perhaps my favourite sci-fi story of all time - just silly until it's not

    • @SciFiFinds
      @SciFiFinds  Месяц назад

      A friend of mine loves that manga/anime. Thanks for the recommendation, I'll look into it.
