    That's a great haul. I know the pain of trying to buy physical books that you can't get/costs too much to ship when you're not living in NA or Europe, it just makes them more special. I didn't even know about the ASOIAF Folio Society editions, those look amazing. Great stuff!

    Petriiiiik! Great book haul! That Souls book is stunning! I collect the From Software game guides that Future Press does. They are super detailed, high quality and include lots of art. I'm waiting for my Shadow of the Erdtree copy and they made a new Anniversary Edition of the Bloodborne guide and I'm drooling for it 🤣. I will be reading Long Live Evil too, I have the FairyLoot Edition ❤.

    Hey Petrik... glad you had a great time. From one of your stories I became tempted by that Ruination book and ended up ordering it from Amazon UK. I haven't ever played LOL, but I've read that you can perfectly read that novel and it's pretty solid.

    Grats on Soularts, I have that too, it's so good! I have a few of the Tune and Fairweather‬ books and they are all great, good luck on collecting them, hope you find a way!
    Joe Abercrombie is definitely on my list of authors to meet if I can, I have hours of questions I could ask but I think if I could only talk about one thing it would be about Caul Shivers and how he wrote him in a way that I didn't want to take my eye off his name, he's a character you can just feel there menacingly even when he's not the focus of the scene. In a world of great characters it's pretty hard to stand out but Shivers absolutely did, for me at least.
    I'm not the biggest ASOIAF fan, I've read them but I don't think I would again, but even I have to admit those Folio Society editions are rad as hell!
    Ruination was surprisingly good, I went in with fairly low expectations, but I really enjoyed it! That edition looks incredible! I agree, sometimes just the art on the cover is enough, that book proves that!
    Glad you enjoyed your trip, hope the weather wasn't too bad!

    Hello Petrick! I have a question about “the will of the many” what will be the main difference between the broken binding edition and the new cover edition you order from you local bookstore? On the local bookstore it says (deluxe edition on it) ?

    • @PetrikLeo
