Hi Al - loved this as you can probably imagine! - lots of stuff there that I've talked about - including Harrison, Ellison, Wyndham, Haldeman, Bester, Le Guin and Finney! - then you talk about Ray Bradbury!!!! :D Love it! Can't wait for you to read these books.

Me neither 😆, gimme a few years and I’ll let you know 😬

Great video mate! I need to read more Jules Verne and Edgar Rice Burroughs. The cover for The Body Snatchers is very cool. Hyperion is another book I need to read, I love his horror novels. Dandelion Wine is a beautiful book. Happy Reading! 😀

Aye, some very pretty paperbacks 😍

Ooh I read AE van Vogt’s Slan this week for Rocket Summer. Loved it. Must get around to Edgar Rice Burroughs. The Chrysalids is my favourite Wyndham novel. Also read Brave New World this year. Fahrenheit 451 is on my list too as is A Clockwork Orange. Great video. Gave me lots of ideas 😊

Wow it seems like you are getting to plenty of classics. I suppose Rocket Summer helps with that 🚀

Watching your Book Review videos is always a treat. You are very nice.

Thank you sir 🫡

I’ve read just a few of these of authors myself. I’d like to get to all these too! So many books and so little time. Good luck getting through these.

Soooo many books! 🫣

There are so many authors here I haven’t read from. I also read Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea when I was younger, but don’t remember any of it. Some of the older sci fi covers are amazing.

They really are. That’s why I end up buying so many 🫣😬

Love that you have those original black spine SF Masterworks, so much nicer than the yellow ones. Also the Bruce Pennington Cover on A Princess of Mars you're making me jealous. Some real big hitters on that list. You've given me an idea though ........ hmm

High on my want-to- read list are Ben Bova (i have only read his short stories), Peter F. Hamilton, Larry Niven, and Phillip K. Dick. I also want revisit Phillip Jose Farmer. I started his Riverworld series long ago. I want to start it again with the aim of finishing it.

Nice 👌, a couple of these authors completely slipped my mind.

Man, I just want to GET THROUGH ONE adult sci-fi book. I just haven't taken to them, and I want to so badly!

They can be an acquired taste. Like most genres I think it’s best to find the author that works for you.

*Daemon & Freedom* by Daniel Suarez It consists of two books but is only one story. Murder and death from the getgo.
