Arrival today. The easiest and least expensive of @greatdismal.bsky.social's Sprawl trilogy to find in a 1st edition (🇬🇧 in this case). Fills another gap on my cyberpunk collecting list. The remaining gaps will be what my kids would call "spenny*" to fill. #bookcollecting #cyberpunk *expensive

Another arrival, another cyberpunk acquisition target achieved. I read the paperback earlier this year, very vivid. In my humble opinion, the cover on the UK paperback is a better artwork, but a 1st edition is a 1st edition. #scifibooks #sciencefiction #bookcollecting #cyberpunk

Arrived y'day. Seller described as "Acceptable", usually means v rough. Photos & description in listing hinted at better than that so took the plunge for £20 each. The books are Fine, DJs are nr Fine, minor bumping on the top edge. Very happy book collector. #bookcollecting #bookhaul #asimov

Robots! First two Lije Bailey books in 80s hardback re-issues.

Arrival today, a cyberpunk-adjacent tale from Michael Swanwick. His debut novel from 1985, it didn’t appear in the UK until 1989 in this rather lovely hardback from Legend. #scifibooks #sciencefiction #bookcollecting

So, snagged a mint 1st edition of Mirrorshades, lovely, and it's also signed by 4 peeps: William Gibson, Pat Cadigan, Greg Bear and Patrick Kelly. It's coming from 🇺🇸 so it'll be 2 or 3 weeks before it shows up. Cost me half a Sun Eater set.... #scifibooks #sciencefiction #bookcollecting #cyberpunk

Arrival today. Three cool things about this book. 1st, it's a Bob Shaw 1st edition, not to be sniffed at. 2nd it's signed by Shaw, yay, and 3rd, it's from the library on the f*cking Royal Yacht Brittania! (gawd bless all who sailed in her...). #scifibooks #sciencefiction #bookcollecting #bookhaul

Bob Shaw's signature and accompanying inscription to some bloke called Neil.

"H.M. YACHT BRITTANIA, LIBRARY No. 965."

Charity bookshop haul. The Bovas are a bit of an indulgence from a shelf space point of view but they're in really nice condition and I recall enjoying the few I read way back. 🪐📚 🤷‍♂️ #scifibooks #sciencefiction #bookhaul #bookcollecting

7 hardback books from Ben Bova's Grand Tour series, plus a couple of CS Lewis paperbacks.

That little sound you heard was the distant and pleasing click as the universe slotted into its proper place. Finally bagged a copy of this to complete my collection of the 25 Venture SF books issued 1995 to 1989. 🪐📚 #scifibooks #sciencefiction #spaceopera #bookcollecting
