Yeah, I rarely see them in the wild, and they are always in bad shape, yet still expensive! It took some diligent searching to get my copy. I'm a little surprised they haven't done a revised version considering the enduring popularity of that show.

it would be great to get them in book form, but they ended up writing more for 7-10 online, at least. s7: http://www.mst3kinfo.com/guide/index.html s8-10: http://www.mst3kinfo.com/aceg/index.html

A few new books: This was recommended in the magazine thread:   I liked this guy's two books on the Zodiac killer, so I figured I'd give this a shot:   I had to pick this one up for myself:   A couple of silly book & record sets:     Finally, on the topic of silly, the Punisher is ridiculous, so of course I enjoy reading it from time to time:

 I love hobos and terrible fiction from self-published authors, so this one checks a lot of boxes for me. bad posts ahead!!! posted:i thought "slug signorino" (artist of that cb radio book) sounded familiar. he's the guy who did illustrations for cecil adams/straight dope Dude, "Slug Signorino" sounds like he should have been playing Fish Picker with Spit Spingola and the rest of The Fontanelles in Hobgoblins.

When I was in college, I went through a period where I collected Nexus erotica--late 90s, early 00s British porn (lots of sodomy). Here are some of the titles I still have (hidden behind spoilers for slight NSW): [url]https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/41FG9rU-YiL._SX300_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg[/img] https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1394324591l/8502359.jpg https://www.qbd.com.au/img/products/0/9780352337290.jpg https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61LF9bfVZAL.jpg https://pictures.abebooks.com/isbn/9780352337894-us.jpg ...and some other weird books I have to prove I read stuff other than pr0n.

It is a very good book with very good illustrations. Salvador Dali was a very good choice to illustrate it. Overall, I would rate it: very good.

Fun fact, after the third replacement, Amazon will wipe their hands of the whole affair and claim it's a problem with shipping from their suppliers and the aren't going to be able to get you a decent copy.

If there's a sci-fi book about Hawkwind that doesn't involve them battling Lemmy and being destroyed in the process, what's the loving point?

hexwren posted:Apparently I do have time to take photos. Those both look awesome, but I especially want to read the Hawklords one. Please report back once you've read it and let us know how it is.  Holy gently caress, it really is about Hawkwind!! A Pack of Kobolds posted:If there's a sci-fi book about Hawkwind that doesn't involve them battling Lemmy and being destroyed in the process, what's the loving point? Looks like it was first published in 1976. Lemmy got kicked out of Hawkwind (after getting arrested for possession of speed at the Canadian border) in 1975. Although I doubt it, it is possible Lemmy appears as a character in the book. I will withhold judgment until I know for sure.
