I've never really known why, but I have always had a soft spot for Rifts. Now I'm going to have to start collecting the books.

I think it's because I have always loved really odd and crazy things, like a magician flying on a jet cycle teleporting atom bombs at dragons.

So, does anyone know of a good resource to get RIFTS books from that isn't :filez:? I'd like to pick up some of the books, but have limited cash to do it.

Also, there's Rifts that opened in the sky, under water... has any Rift opened up in the middle of an inactive supervolcano? Like, releasing enough energy to make it go boom?

When I was shoring up my Rifts collection for F&F writeups, I used hpbmarketplace.com. You can get a lot of the early books super-cheap (not caring about the condition helps), and if you can find multiple books from the same seller, the shipping costs are notably lower than amazon.com. One of the big issues, though, when searching, is that there's basically no standard for how those books are titled and filed, so you'll find the same book under like two to four different names sometimes.

If you're looking for PDFs, rpgnow as a selection of them, and they're about half off normal retail price.

Perfect. I'm hoping for PDFs since I've got zero shelf space. I do want a good copy of the main book though, preferably in hardback. What's the latest version there, the Ultimate edition?

That's a lot of :words: but man, does it sound like it would be fun to play in that world.

Does Rifts play well with a PBEM or PBP system? I know for a fact I can't get enough people around me interested in this, but I'd still love to play around with the universe.
