Lumlian 'Wants' List

[SpOOkshow]

Are there any of Brian's works that you are short of? Any particular editions that you've always wanted, but never had the opportunity to get?

I know the net has loads of out of print book sites - but I'm thinking of something a little simpler...

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm always on the look-out for Brian's books. Even copies of stuff I already own. Its those times...when I stand in a second hand bookshop, looking at the BL books before me, thinking 'I've got this - but I wonder if anyone else would need it?'

So - If you have any 'Wants', put them here.
Maybe we can look out for each other...

smile.gif

[Nathan]

Excellent idea, SpOOk! I too have extras laying around. Awww. Maybe they can find a home. smile.gif

I just need The Lost Years...both books, both in hardcover, and both UK edition.

Beyond that I'm just looking forward to...Deadspeak, Deadspeak, Deadspeak. And then...Deadspawn, Deadspawn, Deadspawn. (I speak of Tor hardcovers...for those who're thinking I'm nuts. :D) Bring 'em on!!

I can't wait. smile.gif

[Exsanguinator]

Up till the moment I menioned it (just now) Ive been lucky in being able to find odds and sods...

Though there are some things I'd really like...

Hard covers (UK editions) started coming out at a time when I really couldn't afford em, so I'd love HoDII, Lost Years 1 & 2 and Invaers in hard cover...

Also those rarities you need a second mortgage for...

...Caller of the Black, Horror at Oakdeene, Ghoul Warnings...

And not forgetting all those collections that contain those little seen short stories ...

But I'll keep my open for others... :)

[Mike C]

EBAY... EBAY... EBAY!
Hey guys! I am filling in most of my collection at Ebay because the local bookstores only carry multitudes of books that are going to sell alot of, because of a "household" name or a new movie. I figure there is a bookstore in the middle of Buttscratch, Oklahoma just dying to get rid of a Brian Lumley book that is taking up room on their bookshelf when they could make money on the latest King, Rice, or Koontz release... so I try to do them a favor.

And believe it or not I check to see who the high bidder is... I don't wanna get into a bidding war with someone from this site if I am picking up an extra copy and maybe one of my buddies here is looking for a hard to find edition to round out their collection.

[Lagula Longarm]

I require,...no...want...uh...need....arghhh...why can't I fnd psychomech, sphere, amok :mad:

please, please please, please and one for luck pleeeeeeeease smile.gif

ps, please don't tell me they are being released in the USA, I know they are, but I still seem to frown alot.

Hey N8, a friend of ours works at the forbidden planet in London, we'll ask him if he's got what you're after. If he has I'm sure something can be arranged smile.gif

[ShadoeWolfe]

Ok deano, I won't tell you that in August, Psychomech will be released over here and that in October, Psychosphere will be. And I'll be quite sure not to tell you that the final installment, Psychamok, is slated for an August 2002 release over here. I mean - it would be just wrong since you asked me not to. :D

Actually, the UK editions are just as hard to come by as the US ones from what I've seen, but someone was selling all three on ebay: [edit] but i just spotted the fact that someone named 'mazrah' has the high bid on both auctions going on right now! smile.gif hmmmm...wonder if I know who that mazrah is... :D Good luck on the auction deano!

[Lagula Longarm]

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ;)

[Lagula Longarm]

smile.gif :D Two down, one to go :D

[Goth Girl]

Nice one Deano!

Just to let you all know, if any of you didn't already, I'm always happy to help out with stuff like this, so I'm gonna print out this list of 'wants' (and whenever it is updated) and keep my eyes open for stuff... if I see anything from anyone's list, I'll buy it straight away and let you know... I'm gonna be making a trip to the Fantasy Centre soon, and they usually have a few goodies lying around!

So, it may be a good idea to either post (or mail me direct) if you manage to remove anything from your wants list... but then, I could always put it on ebay if I get a duplicate!

Happy hunting guys!

[Nathan]

Which one are you missing Deano?

I've got an extra copy of Psychomech if it's that one.

I've also got in paperback, extras of...

Tor...Invaders
Hero of Dreams (Two copies)
Deadspawn
The House of Doors
Malibu Comic--Necroscope #4

Not really anything rare, but these cost me next to nothing. I'd let them go for the cost of shipping only if anyone's missing them.

[Lagula Longarm]

Hi N8,

I'd be willing to give a good home to a couple of items on your list :D

Malibu comic-Necroscope#4
Hero of dreams

email me with shipping costs and I'll send you a cheque to cover it, unless you have paypal.

[topol_sheap]

Deano,

I have a spare copy of Psychamok if you're interested, and later this year (or early next), I should have a spare set of the dreamlands series (TOR editions). I wouldn't want to separate the series though.

Pybob,

I know where I can get you a copy of Invaders, UK HC, if you want it e-mail me and I'll see what I can do, although it'll have to wait until payday as I am skint after booking my holiday. Oh and it's cover price.

Did someone mention HoDII HC? I know where to get that for cover price aswell.

I'm missing Second wish and other Exhalations. That's it. Although I am building up my Ganley collection... I'm currently missing 6 HC editions. Then I'll stop. Although I will eventually get round to getting all of the wierdbooks with BL stuff that isn't printed anywhere else. I would like an origninal of Synchronicity or Something, but that is a rare find. Also a HC of ghoul warning would be nice.

Cheers,

Tops

[Vereor]

I guess I'll toss my hat into the ring as well. My wish list consists of only one book that I am missing. "Caller of the Black". Now I see this on E-bay quite regularly, however I cannot afford the 125.00 price tag at the moment. So if anyone of you happens to see it in the 50 or so price range then I would be the happiest Little Lumlian around. smile.gif

I wish I had extras around to help everyone else out, alas whenever I want to get an extra, my significant other whaps me!..lol.

P.s. I think I am missing 3 & 4 of the Malibu Necroscope comics as well.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Nathan:

I know I probably wrecked the quote thingy.. but not bothered by it..lol, let me know Nathan what you would like for the two of those please :)

Lost my HOD years ago and the Hero series is one that I've never read, but heard good things about.

Thanks :)

[Ema]

Ohh double posting but :-Þ!!!

NATHAN!! Thank you! Got the books yesterday and got a bonus! Your copy of Maze of Worlds signed by you & Brian and used for your bit on the Companion (and I don't mind the highlights at all!)! If you want it back since I already have a copy, I will send it.. but believe me.. I will treasure it!

Methinks Pratchett will just have to sit on the back-burner whilst I delve into Hero & his dreams!

Needless to say, you are seeing a Very Happy Wacky Yank! :-D

*Hugglesmoochies & HUGE hugglesmoochies to Scarlet.. just because :-D*

[Nathan]

LOL! Nah...I don't want it back. I'm glad you like. smile.gif

But I would suggest finding the other three Hero books before you delve too far into the first one. smile.gif Wish I could've helped with those too but...

Heehee...Cool! I got a "Hugglesmoochie". *blush* :D

[Ema]

Heh heh, are you saying I should have a Want's List of my own and add the Hero books? Ohh, really can't wait now then! Maybe I'll just have to hold myself back (yeah right!) and read HOD's until I can get the other 3... :)

Thank You again!

[Nathan]

Must...get...hands on...Primal Lands...books!!

That story about Tarra Khash is great!

More on that Monday. :D

[Goth Girl]

Just in case anyone was looking... Nathan now has Lost Years 1 in UK hardback, and Ema has Ship of Dreams and Mad Moon of Dreams!

Muchos gracias to Goth Girl and Tops for the escort to the appropriate places!

Cheers m8

[Nathan]

Necroscope: The Lost Years: Volume Two...signed, sealed and delivered. smile.gif

Thanks again to the greatest Sp00kshow on Earth! :D

(Somehow I never knew that the UK edition wasn't called Resurgence.) :confused:

[topol_sheap]

Deano, not a problem matey ;)

[SpOOkshow]

I'm glad it got there OK Nathan.

Glad you like it, and glad to help

smile.gif

[Psykhopaf]

Any help on getting the Hoose of Doors book wid be gratefully recieved http://www.type.creechur.btinternet.co.uk/lair/fang2.gif

Thanks tae SpOOk fir the Hoose of Doors Book II

[Nathan]

Well, the book from SpOOk has now got its mate. Thanks Debs. smile.gif

I should probably thank Deano publicly for the Compleat Khash book too. (Delivery in six to eight weeks. :D) Thanks m8! smile.gif

Now if anyone has an extra Shaithis diorama laying about that needs a good home... :D

Creech--If you're looking for the Tor edition of HOD, just gimme a holler. I see it in all the bookshops I frequent all the time. I don't think it ever came out in hardcover though. :(

[Psykhopaf]

Nathan Tor edition would be great :D.

I dont wanna start reading the 2nd one first.
How much u want... And is a Cheque ok? or what other form of payment is suitable for ya.
Oh is the TOR edition any different? Or is it only different in the cover?

[Nathan]

Hell, I don't even know that the cover is any different. But no, it shouldn't be any different other than the extra "u" in certain words and the absence of periods from things like Mr. and Mrs. :D (Mr and Mrs)

A fiver should work. I'll let you know when I have it. smile.gif

[Ema]

Just call me One Happy Camper!!! *HUGE hugglesmoochies to GG!!*

Heh ehh, David & Eldin are on another adventure... albeit sailing off (UP?) into the unknown! LOL Got home yesterday and found in me mailbox... Ship of Dreams & Mad Moon of Dreams!

Sorry Nathan..heh heh, just HAD to start on them.. but still have Demogorgon about so I can twiddle with my brain on the Group Read!

Debs... I tell you what.. I can't wait until I can get myself over the Pond to visit you!! Thank you!! :-X's

[Psykhopaf]

Right u will think me quite mad :D But here goes...

I am going to get my paws on the following books...
Necroscope: El Que Habla Conlos Muertos – Spanish Version.

Necroscope - The Czech Republic Version.

Necroscope - Russian Version.

I am quite sane ;)...

Any help from my fellow Lumians would be gratefully recieved.

[Mike C]

I am with Creech on getting the Necroscopes in Spanish.

I also need to add the "Dreamland" series to my collection.

And does anyone know if House of Doors has been released in Hardback?

Peter:And not to rub it in but,six months ago I got "Caller of the Black" on ebay for about $60... so keep your eyes open.

[Psykhopaf]

heheheh Just ordered the French version of the first Necroscope book smile.gif

[topol_sheap]

for Jason's eyes!

What did we say... Caller for $60 !

[ShadoeWolfe]

Mike,

FYI - House of Doors was never released in hardcover, US or UK. HOD II and MOW - both were though....

[Goth Girl]

Creech, I'll try asking my friend in our Spanish office about the Spanish version... I'll admit to looking for it myself when I was over there!

[Mike C]

Thanks Shadoe... no sense in chasing things that don't exist.

[Lagula Longarm]

I've trawled through ebay, and quite a lot of old book shops, but I can't find Necroscope in hard back.
If anyone can enlighten me as to where I might be able to find it, I would be deeply greatful. smile.gif

[Nathan]

Good luck mate!!

I got mine when it came out and then got Wamphyri when it came out, but I missed the release of The Source. It took me about a year to finally find a copy...and it was only six months past the release date when I started searching! There are a limited supply of these and they are going to be very difficult to come by. :( EDIT--at least for a decent price, that is.

I'll keep an extra eye open for you though. smile.gif

ANOTHER EDIT--Don't miss Deadspeak in December. :D And I hear Deadspawn is the Xmas gift for the following year. :D JOY!!

Deano.... I have a extra copy of Necroscope in Hard cover. Only one problem... no dust jacket on it. Apparently when I ordered it they sent one without a dust jacket. They replaced it and told me to keep the other one without the jacket.

[Nathan]

Okay so it's not so hard if you've got buddies who know where to look on a computer! Or buddies with extra copies. redface.gif

Looks like you're in business one way or another...

It dosen't matter about the dj, i'll just have to trawl some book shops and borrow a dj if I see one ;)

[SpOOkshow]

Many thanks to Nathan for helping
me aquire the first two Titus Crow volumes from Tor.

I usually stand with the 'UK Covers' banner, but in the case of the US versions of these books, I'm swaying...

If any Lumlians in the USA should spot the third and final Titus Crow volume in large paperback or hardback, give me a yell !

Thanks again Nathan

smile.gif

[Lagula Longarm]

I'm begining to believe there's a Lumlian working for the usps, I've been waiting nearly six weeks for two seperate items to arrive here from the US.
and I thought our post service was bad ! :mad:

[Canker]

Spook......check out this website www.barnesandnobles.com (http://www.barnesandnoble.com) and do a search for the 3rd volume of Titus Crow.

My birthday was July 30'th and I got all three volumes through them then. :D :D

Good luck. I'm sure they'll be able to set you up. :D

EDIT = I just re-checked the site and the they have those volumes in paperback and hardcover. The paperback are the larger paperbacks that are hardcover size, hence the $14 price tag.

The Psychosphere is a first edition I think… There are slight creases to the spine bout other than that it’s in v good condition.

[VonDarkmoor]

folks just an update, managed to get

The House of Cthulhu" and Other Tales of the primal lands from abe in paperback.

Still on the lookout for "2nd wish "

ive got a few duplicate tor paperback editions of hero books if anyones in the need.

[Canker]

Hey Deano I just sent you a PM today. :D I forgot about the above post about the Necroscope book that i have.

Let me know if you're still interested. My e-mail is bblache1@yahoo.com

I'll need an address to figure out the shipping.

Again the Hardcover doesn't have the dust jacket on it but the book itself is first rate. smile.gif

[Ema]

*hops up & down waving hands!* Creech!! I want Titus! Heh ehh, let me know how much okies? Already got the Psycho books :-D And you all know me, I go for whats inside a book, not the way it looks.

Also too, before you send it, I want you to sign it for me okies? Gotta have all my books that are send to me by friends signed by them!

[topol_sheap]

Creech,

that psychosphere would be a nice editon.. hint hint ;)

Oh and I am on the look out for a second wish as well... although if I wait long enough and get Beneath the Moors and Darker PLaces, then it'll be fine and I'll have all the stories that I miss from that collection ;)

Any help wouldbe appreciated guys

Later,

Tops

[Psykhopaf]

Titus Crow :D Need addy to post the book 2? Don't want paid for it.
If you can find a copy of Mad Moon of Dreams. I would be a extremely
happy Cree'Chur

Psychosphere. Damn. Deano contacted me this morning he wanted it...
Sorry Tops :(. I will keep my beak out for it again.

Again Tops I am sorry m8...

Paul - Cree'Chur

[Ema]

YAY! Okies, sent addy to ICQ Creech. :) I've got Mad Moon of Dreams... but since my Favorite Goth sent it to me.. I'm Never giving it up!!

Tops? If you want, I can give you my copy of Psychooooooooo (lol, gotta look and see what one it is...come on comp... bring it on!)...sphere! :) Its not that copy though with the cover that Creech has, just your regular PB from the US. With the regular cover, not the new one (which I don't think is out yet).

[Canker]

Hey Deano... not sure if you got my PM but I need your address to post the book to you. As soon as you send me that I'll have the book on its way to you. :D

As far as "wants" ....there are always the books I don't have that the Master Brian Lumley has created. Plus House of Cthulhu and Caller of the black but from what I can gather those are few and far between. :D

I have the Necroscope series , Titus Crow series, Fruiting Bodies, Whispers and other Voices.

Any suggestions on other Brian Lumley titles or even UK related items (non-expensive ofcourse) that I wouldn't be able to come by around here would be great.

Anyways.... e-mail me your address and the book will be on it's way.

[topol_sheap]

Ema,

I've already got it.... but I thought the cover was cool smile.gif

Thanks for the thought,

TOps

[Ema]

Heh heh, the cover is a cool one! Anyhoo.. I checked when I got home, and forgot I got the whole series at the Paperback Exchange... so its got their stamp on the inside cover.. which doesn't make any diference to me since I could care less what the book looks like.. just as long as I have all the pages in it! :)

[The Bloody Lady]

for some reason imissed this thread


i want............everything.........

well......almost........i have about 21 books but i can't afford any right now so it will have to happen slllllllloooooooowly


:(

[SpOOkshow]

Just a quick word to Lumlians in the UK.

If you have a branch of the bookshop chain 'The Works' nearby, keep an eye out in their 'Miscellaneous Fiction' section. Today in Derby, I turned up a Lumley 'Ship of Dreams' paperback. I asked if they had any more, but were a little vague...

However - the prices were good !

I picked up 4 copies - Headline books, First published in GB 1989. All in pretty good condition. They were, frankly, amazingly cheap - £1.50 each

If anyone wants a copy, let me know.

smile.gif

[SpOOkshow]

A friend of mine arrived at my house today, with a fair condition paberback Khai of Ancient Khem. It's the Grafton UK edition...probably early 90's(?).

If anyone's interested - he'd like a swap !

He needs House of Cthulhu, Tarra Khash : Hrossak! and Iced On Aran.


If anyone has a spare, and would like to trade, please get in touch with me.

smile.gif

[VonDarkmoor]

im still on the look out for the following:

second wish and other....
house of cthulhu.. as abe failed to deliver!

above would be ideal in pb.

non lumley : a copy of "bloody red baron" by kim newman in paperback if any can help me out.

got in duplicates

pb hero of dreams, ship of dreams (think early tor editions) uk paperback necroscope (most of them), uk some titus crows and coven of vampires pb.

any one interested contact me via PM for details etc.

[SpOOkshow]

During my usual wanderings in Derby's second hand bookshops today, I saw a copy of:

Necroscope: Avengers - the UK HB edition, of course smile.gif

It was priced at £6.99, and the condition was pretty good. If anyone fancies it, let me know, and I'll pick it up.

smile.gif

[Canker]

Many thanks to my friend, Deano! I recieved the paperback "Khai of Ancient Khem" and he did me one even better....signed by The Master himself at the Con!!!! :eek:

Just finished Never a Backward Glance. Man, was that a good one! I was pulled into his adventure almost as much as Harry's (Keogh that is)! Strange how stories published in various different places come together to form chapters for a kick ass book! smile.gif

Thanks Deano!! smile.gif

Now I want the second one! Can it be found in stores across the way there? Or would ebay or Amazon (B and N, Abe, etc. :D ) be my best bet?

[VonDarkmoor]

N8, you might be able to get a copy on your side of the pond quite easily for "sorcery in shad". i managed to pick up the ganley HB for about $20 on abe. but im sure if youre not too fussed about format you can get a paperback from probably anywhere and cheaply.

they are hard to come by in the uk. OOP an all that.

(if you enjoyed the first one then, get your mitts on the second installment as there plenty more spoils and fun in it, to rival the first).

I must be mad, but Deano, I'm the gal you need to talk to! Email me, and we'll talk!

I kinda like the idea of the swap thing, although I'm not sure if KeoghCon is the place... there might not be time, unless pre-arranged between members... but if anyone has any better ideas, I'd love to hear them! Just think of me as a kind of Noel Edmunds... actually, no don't, that idea is too distressing!

Anyone seen a copy of the UK H/C of The Lost Years vol 1, I've got vol 2 but can't lay my hands on the first - and help would be greatly appreciated?

Ah, The Saturday Morning Swap Shop - I'd like to exchange this used handkerchief for any original work of Leonardo da Vinci... Shame noel swapped any snese of humour he had for those woolly jumpers...

Have you tried FP in London, you can get the number for them off the driectory enquiries people, it's on New Oxford Street.

Or even you could try the fantasy centre...

I do believe I have 2 copies of Lost Years Vol 1

I would be willing to part with one of them. Send me a PM if you are interested.

[JB_Lestat]

Hey, hey all!!! Just needed to spread my joy!! After searching for a LONG time, I found 3 of my desperately wants last night on Amazon zShops: Return of the Deep Ones, Dagons Bell and Other Discords, and Second Wish!!! It cost me a *pretty penny*, but I feel it was well worth it! :D tongue.gif smile.gif ;) :D :D :D

[Goth Girl]

Nice one honey!

[topol_sheap]

JB,

Did you spend as much as I think I saw them for on amazon? PM me if you want to know what I saw them for.

[Exsanguinator]

A big thanks to Dark Crystal - a HB copy of Lost Years vol 1 landed in the post this morning...

Cheers bud! smile.gif

[Ema]

Came home to a package! Thank You Dark Crystal! You didn't sign them though :-( But that's ok, I signed: Adopted from Dark Crystal's House! :)

And forgot I already had Ship of Dreams from Debs! But hey, who say's you can't have more than one of each of Brian's books! Got two of Maze of Worlds also... the other one happily adopted from Nathan! Will be delving into the mind of De Marigny tonight!

[Goth Girl]

Remember Ema, when you're done with your delving, to leave everything how you found it....! Don't want you leaving De Marigny's mind all untidy! tongue.gif

[Ema]

Heh heh, can't wait to read it! Have heard so much about that character. I know I will be wanting the rest of the series too!

And XOXOXOXOOXOX Just seen the new name! :-D

[DC 1]

Just noticed people buying "Necroscribe - Brian Lumley in his own write" on e-bay for upto $17.00.

I have just bought another copy from the publisher: www.necropress.com (http://www.necropress.com) for $5.95

[JB_Lestat]

Figured since I gave you my great news, I should also share the bad. When I ordered Dagon's Bells, everything was normal... then today I found out they did a search and it turns out they don't have a copy for me... :confused: :(
So, figured all of you that were previously happy for my rare find should know my loss...WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!! :( :( :(

House of Cthulhu for sale on ebay.

House of Cthulhu (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1542918283)

DJ not in good condition but worth a look if you havn't got this rare to find book.

[Exsanguinator]

I recently got my grubby little hands on the Ganley editions of the Dreamlands trilogy... and volumes 20 and 21 of his Wierdbook magazines both featuring works of BL...

Now all I need is The Caller of the Black to have a near complete collection... but have you seen how much this goes for on eBay?

I think I'd better start saving up! lol

[NightMare]

I was wondering if anyone had the complete set of Necroscope World roleplying books and if you are willing to sell them if so for how much.

[topol_sheap]

I think you might have to trawl through e-bay and the like for them... I check e-bay a lot and it's quite rare to actually see then there... you could try abe (http://www.abe.com/) and do a search for them... not something I've seen though, although not that I've ever looked for them.

HTH

TOps

[Nathan]

I have the complete set but would rather not part with it...

However...

I do have an extra copy of The Masterbook if you'd like to start your collection with just the one.

nathan@brianlumley.com

Lemme know...

Caller of the Black now showing on E Bay.

Caller (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1545214942)

[Llamedos]

Anybody got a spare Psychomech, that I could purchase off of them.

Or a House of Doors, no #1, already have 2nd visit.

Or an Iced on Iran.

Condition not that important as long as pages are in English.

(No point them being in other languages as I wouldn't be able to read them. Useless at languages, just about manage English, that's talking never mind reading and writing. As for pronounciation and grammer, horrendous!)

[topol_sheap]

can't atleast 2 of those on amazon???

psychomech (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0312853718/ref=sr_aps_books_1_1/026-8858636-2163662)

house of doors (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0812508327/qid=1025528624/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_1/104-9494445-2891158) - they will send to the UK

iced on aran might be harder to find... the z-shops on amazon have it:)

HTH

tops

[Llamedos]

Not got those yet, but did manage to pick up a copy of 'The Burrower's Beneath'.

A Grafton UK Paperback Original 1988. Is this a good find?

[topol_sheap]

I think if you like the George Underwood covers, then it's a must, although the original printing from 1977 (?) is quite good as are the Ganley edtions... personally for me ganley editions are best, but most expensive, but they are HC and that way they'll last (for me) a good few more years than the average paper back....

Still a good find as these days the Underwoods are harder and harder to come by:)

[Llamedos]

Just checked it out:-

Front cover by Alan Hood. It's a PB.

[topol_sheap]

must be from before Mr Underwood did the covers then... can you scan it and send it to me? wouldn't mind a gander at that!

[Exsanguinator]

Alun Hood used to be fairly prolific - I've a couple of books with his cover art, the first Nec, Masques 2 (very similar to his nec cover) and a couple of others I can't remember without checking.

Aside from the first Necroscope and First UK run of Burrowers He also did the original covers for the Psychomech trilogy. There runs weren't exactly huge in numbers and if I'm right when the meade the switch to George's covers existing retail copies were recalled and re-jacketted.

What I'm trying to say (I've been up for 54 hours, so please forgive me!) is any of Brian's books with Alun Hood covers are something of a forgotten collector's item. If you have them treasure them - and if you don't want them give me a shout! tongue.gif

And ditto on the request for a scan there Llamedos! smile.gif

[Llamedos]

Having problems with scanning at the moment, but as soon as I've got it scanned in or photo'ed with digital camera, then I will post it to Top's and he can put it on board, 'cause I don't know how to.

[EDIT] DC got copy aswell so will post on board somewhere.

Ok, I know I am early on this.. at least for here in the US.. but have a request if I may :)

Would LOVE to have a UK version of the Brian Lumley Companion Book when it arrives.. of course as always signed by whomever can get it for me and if Brian can sign it ohhh all the more better!

The catch... if any of my favorite UK people decide to take on this quest, conditions are that they let me know how much it will be to first buy the book, possible send, bring, etc the book to The Master for a signing (can be anytime too, if it is at the KeoghCon..then I would just love for everyone to sign it!!! And I mean Brian, Silky, and all Lumlians! And I know there is room for all that! If at a regular booksigning, then just as good!), adding the cost of having it signed (if sent by post to Brian for a signing request, etc), taken, whatever) as well as the final shipping costs to me.

I know in the past, books have been traded, given as gifts, etc, but this one I will definately be demanding to pay for myself (No exceptions... lol, you know who you are!! :-Þ). Yes I could just preorder a US copy or wait until it comes to a bookstore nearest me.. but to me, getting books from friends mean so much more to me. :)

This message will self-destruct in 376,999 seconds...

erm.. was getting into it :)

Anyone interested.. let me know here, by my e-mail or ICQ.. although the former two would be better to get in touch with me.

[Goth Girl]

It's a real shame that the Companion isn't released by KeoghCon, otherwise some of the other contributors would be able to add their scrawls, but as most of them are friends of yours Ema, I'm sure we can sort out some kind of signing thing, one way or another!

[Goth Girl]

Oh, and if anyone is interested, the Fantasy Centre in London has an unproofed, signed UK copy of the Lost Years Vol 2, bound with plain white cover. It's been there at least two weeks to my knowledge, but I can't afford it for myself, although if anyone wants it who can't get there, email me, usual address!

[Ema]

Argh, lol, took me forever to find this thread, couldn't remember that it was 'Wants' and not 'Wish'!

Anyhoo.. I am looking for copies of the Vampire World Trilogy as I gave my copies to George to have & read..lol, he also read 3, 4 & 5 of the series while I was at work! So, after re-converting him, thought it would be good to let him have mine.. the drawback is.. I cannot find them to replenish my collection!

Note: I don't order online, which I know would be the easiest way.. but members who know me know that I would much rather get the books from friends instead!

So.. if any of you have an extra set, or one of the three that you would be willing to part with.. please send me an e-mail with info on price (including shipping!) and whatnot.

Thanks! Oh, and another note.. all the books I have I read.. I don't keep them looking pretty, so the looks, versions or editions make no matter to me. They will always be read numerous times. I don't care one flip on what the outside looks like.. just so that I can read and enjoy them!

:) Can just imagine some of you die-hard collectors just cringing at the thought of me removing dust jackets so it doesn't interfere with my way of reading books! lol They get in the way!

[Sophie]

hmmmm, I've only ever read the Necroscope books, but I REALLY want all the other , but I'm on hunger reading strike because until I finish my first three chapters of my book, I'm not aloud to read anything.

:confused: the pain I put myself under lol.

Sophie

[Goth Girl]

But just think of all the delights you'll have waiting...!

I kinda wish I could delete my memories of reading all of Brian's work, so I could 'discover' it all over again. Still, I can re-read them constantly anyway, so not too much of a prob!

[topol_sheap]

I want to be there again... maybe we should tell people what to read again:)

have a look out for the pyschomech and titus crow stuff, in the UK I think the best best is to look out for the Mythos Omnibus stuff...

Later,

Tops

[Sophie]

My next Brian book will be psycomech, I nearly got that over the Necroscope 1 book 2 years ago, so I've had my eye on it for awhile.

Sophie

[Goth Girl]

Cool... next thing you know, you'll be buying every book in both US and UK cover, as well as in hardback and paperback!

You wouldn't be the only one around here...! I would but my clothes-shopping habit won't allow for it!

[Lupa the Ancient]

It is like a drug .... just can't stop spending????

Go for it Sophie.. and when you've finished, just start all over again!!!! Thats want most of us do... ;)

[Sophie]

Well I remember I got the Necroscope the lost years, and my copy had pages missing from it from a bad printing error. wasn't happy :mad: Then when I went to get the volume 2, it had been recalled redface.gif for re-printing in the uk... so lol, I had to get in the U.S cover, not too impressed by that volumes art work cover myself.

So I think I have a head start.

Sophie

[Scourge]

Hey all, I'm currently looking for (all in paperback, hardcover are too awkward):

Psychamok
Tarra Khash: Hrossak!
Dagon's Bell & Other Discords
The Second Wish & Other Exhalations
and, well, a lot of rares (aside from Khai, House of Cthulhu and Sorcery in Shad).


Have extras of (again, all paperback, various printings).
Necroscope 1-5
Vampire World Trilogy
Defilers
The Lost Years Vol. 1
The House of Cthulhu


Had I know Khai of Ancient Khem was rare, I would have picked that second copy up I saw in a used book shop a couple years ago. Dang.

[Goth Girl]

Would anyone be interested in buying a new copy of Demogorgon (US paperback)? Email me if anyone's interested, my usual address!

[sistermoon]

Have you tried used book stores or thrift stores? You'd be surprised what you can find there.

[WampyrLord]

Hello. Very long time since I last posted here. I know this is slightly off topic but maybe someone can point me in the right direction. I am currently re-doing my english GCSE (a couple of decades too late !!) and came up with a really good short story (well I'm proud of it anyway!). There used to be a section on this site for people to share their own stories but I'm bugered if I can find it, can anyone help me out ?

[Nathan]

I don't remember a time when people could do that around here.

But I read stories. Feel free to email me.

:cool:

Now that I've noticed your signature line I'm going to have trouble criticising anything you do... us Slayer fans are too few and far between to start criticising each other! We gotta stick together!

:cool:

Email coming presently...

[WampyrLord]

Well I guess Nathan kinda liked it, what about you GG

[topol_sheap]

Right, this has become completely off topic. I suggest if you want to continue with this topic, you do it elsewhere. I would recommend you use the retreat.

Thanks

good, glad we got that sorted out ;)

as for wants... hmmm, anyone got a spare UK version of Hrossak?

[DC 1]

HaHa

[Lupa the Ancient]

Tops,

Is this one on ebay the one?...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=72305&item=7959749762&rd=1

[sdkdmd]

i got one.........................but it's mine ;)

[sdkdmd]

joking aside, i think i know where to buy one, if you want to pay about 40.00 US

[AlvinFox]

I'm not looking for books or novels, but for uncollected short stories. Basically anything that hasn't been in a collection by Lumley. I have everything from The Caller of the Black, to Dagon's Bell and Other Discords to Beneath the Moors and Darker Places. But there are a good handful of uncollected stories. Such as The Kiss of Bugg-Shash, The Man Who Saw No Spiders, Spaghetti and Mandraki to name a few. I honestly feel that Lumley could do with one or two more collections. Or perhaps even 3 or so volumes of an Omnibus collecting all short stories.

Anyway, if anyone has any uncollected short stories in Weirdbook, Etchings & Odysseys, etc. I'm looking to buy.

[sdkdmd]

still waiting for for my limited to arrive grin.gif

[Llamedos]

I want loads more, but until I can get them.
I've just this minute borrowed Tarra Khash: Hossak from the local library.
So can anyone guess what I'm going to be reading later?

[topol_sheap]

welcome back senior

[Nathan]
