Happy belated birthday and congrats on finding that unicorn that has been haunting you for so long! I know the feeling - I've been suffering the same fate about a book that I started reading in the late '80s, never finished, but have been searching for since probably the late '90s. I don't remember the name, the author, and only a vague (probably faulty) bit of the cover art. So yeah, I'm super happy you finally found it! Same goes for the Spaceways find. I have never seen those in the wild. The Omega Cage and Mystic Rebel both look pretty rad too. I finished the Silverglass series in December - another one that I saw on Nick's channel haha. Anyway, fantastic haul!
Yeah, it's funny, everyone seems to have a story like that. I hope you solve your mystery someday too. Yeah I definitely found a lot of things I hadn't heard of this go around. Thanks for watching man!
Love 'The Book Graveyard' shirt! Yes, 'To Your Scattered Bodies Go', excited to have you on the channel. A Malzberg for less than $1 is a great deal, since his passing his books have become a bit more expensive and harder to find. The Ace L. Ron Hubbard is awesome. Hard to be a God by the Strugatsky's for $1.50 is insane, that is a very collectible book. That book store has some really good deals for paperbacks.
I'm excited as well! I thought I was getting good deals on those. I'm not as much of an expert as you, but when I see big names like those I feel like I've found something special. Especially the Sturgatsky book. The store is McKays books. There's a few locations in the southeast if you ever find yourself around here.
I hear you, I so hear you! I went to bookfest for my birthday and it's not like I didn't have a couple of hundred on the to read list. That is a cool shirt!
@@BadTasteBooks I did, in fact pause it, go to work and come back. How exciting to find the book you have been hunting for since you were 11! Looking forward to finding out if 11 year old you picked a winner with Scorpio. Interestingly enough, To Your Scattered Bodies Go is one I plan on reading with Chris from Liminal Spaces this year.
Haha I'm glad you made use of the innovative feature I included with this video 😋 I may not have even accurately conveyed my level of excitement in finding that book, ha! I'm very excited to read it. Oh very cool! I look forward to watching you both talk about it!
@@BadTasteBooks Yes, still many a great cover! You'll have to let me know what you think of Rooftops. I've heard it's crime, not horror, but it maybe has some disturbing moments
Happy belated birthday. Awesome book haul, got through it in one go. Hope you enjoy those Scorpio books. Those K-9 Corps books look like a lot of fun. And Psi-Man.
Happy Birthday! Omg I have that Scorpio book! I haven’t read it yet, but for whatever reason I had to have it 😂 I’ll be waiting to hear what you think. Disc golf slashing sounds like a good time.
@ I didn’t know you were looking for it! Ha, I would have known. It only has 20 ratings on Goodreads. We gotta bump those number up, those are rookie numbers.
I love the scenario where you meet new friends from wearing my shirt. That's a really cool way to look at it. Yes, why didn't Jake send me that package?? Also, I see he sent you some of the books I sent him for Christmas hahaha. Those Viking Ciphers look amazing. I'll have to pause now and finish watching later.
It's always the best feeling to wear a shirt for something obscure and someone actually recognizes and comments. It's like finding your people in the wild! Hahaha, he's a re-gifter! That's right man, take a pause. Turn it into three videos. Even four. Here at Bad Taste Books we give you options.
@PulpMortem when you get my package, I won't be offended if you re-gift them later. Seriously though you have so many vintage scifi books there's bound to be a double in there.
@TheBookGraveyard it's like, I've often considered sending books to It's or Matt since they've sent me stuff, but they already have MASSIVE collections (and high quality, I buy junk)
Happy belated birthday, looks like you have a lot of cool reads to look forward to! I have read "To Your Scattered Bodies Go" by Philip Jose Farmer and I think you and Ira are going to enjoy that one. Also read the Hyperion series which I think is great. But most of the titles you've shown I haven't heard of, that time travel series to the medieval times of an alien named "Scorpio" sounds great... there were also some other titles in there that looked interesting and that I've marked on GoodReads to perhaps start looking for some time when I'm out of ideas what to read next!
Thanks, and I'm glad to hear that about the PJF book. I have heard mixed reviews. I'm pleased that I could show off some new discoveries for you. Thanks for watching! Ps. Rush is the best band ever. Fly by Night kicks ass.
@@BadTasteBooks love to hear what you and Ira will say about it, in your collab video. Also agree on Rush, especially 70s Rush. Although lately the British band Mostly Autumn might give them a run for fav band. They happened to have dropped by in the Netherlands (where I live) twice on their tour in the past year.. in March and later on in December, so I've seen them twice in one calendar year and have been obsessed with their music as of late.
With all the sniffing and the door handle behind you I feel like I'm sitting in a bathroom with you at a party while you zoot out about a space alien book you once saw 15 years ago. The Kung Fu and the Hang Ten are gold. And you found more obscure occult detective. YOU'RE KILLING ME! I would totally cover the new york 2025 book on EEBS. I feel like it would be so much fun to hangout in person but if we went to the bookstore together we'd have some issues cause we like pretty much the exact same thing. ha! You can of course have all the kids books though.
I love that. These are the vibes I want to bring. Haha, it's gonna happen someday, man! But yeah, it may just be a whoever finds it first situation, Ha!
Here is the thing about your channel… I know that I’ll probably never read most of the books you read and show on here, but I just can’t help but watch because the books you show are just so darn interesting!! I might just have to use some of my local store credit and get a few obscure sci-fi novels. That’s how I feel after your videos 😂 Oh yeah I have three of those creepers! I read Mirror Mirror and it was pretty good!!!
Good! That's the effect I want to have. Even if you never read them they're just cool to look at and know that they exist! Yeah I remember you showing off the creepers books. Glad to hear it was enjoyable.
I knew about them for a while. I was just never sure if I wanted to pull the trigger on getting one. Glad the wife made the decision for me. Have you read any of them?
Wow! You uncovered some serious gems! Hell: A Cyberpunk Thiller is also a videogame novelization. Iv read it. Its pretty crazy but equally offensive. Those viking books look killer! And Rooftops! I wonder if that has anything to do with the movie of the same name. Happy birthday!
Oh very cool that you've read that. Had you played the video game? Just looked up the movie and the plots sound different. That movie looks amazing though, how has that escaped my radar!?
Thanks Jake! And seriously thanks again for that package. Chock full of awesome stuff! The return of GHS and a book with 2025 in the title. I'm just throwing it out there.
Great haul bro! Definitely a nice package from Mr.Pulp himself. I'd be down to check out that 👽 book. Happy Belated Birthday 🎂!! 👽👾 👽👾👽 #UnidentifiedFlyingBook
Thanks Ian! Yeah I was quite pleased with it! What a guy! Your name is securely in the ring! The ONLY name thus far I might add. I'll probably give it until I post my next vid. But your chances look good so far, haha!
Your long hair is gone! You started catching on your looks are distracting us from the books Great haul video man! Nice to see that Vampire Beat book, I picked it up read as well after seeing Paperback Mania’s review on it🔥 Lotta these other books I don’t read since I’m horror only, but the covers are all great, gotta love the old artwork. My friend has read a series I think called Martian Tales by Edgar Rice Burrough. Those might interest you so should check them out it if you haven’t had the chance yet💯
Haha yeah something like that. For sure. Thanks yeah I'm excited about that one. And yeah I saw MonsterBlood talked about those a few months ago. I would love to read that series.
Happy belated birthday! … Man … so many cool books, judging by the covers alone. I had to watch your video twice, once just for the feeling, and again to make some notes. The VIKING CYPHER books, STAR COMMANDOS and POLAR CITY BLUES were especially interesting. And I’ve never heard of that HELL book before and I will definitely hunt it down, thanks for showing!!! By the way, you can call me Michael, mostly because that’s my name 😂. … And great find with that Scorpio book. I can image how you felt after you finally found it. I have something similar with a movie I watched as a teenager that nobody seems to know about. I’m usually quite knowledgeable in terms of movies, but this movie doesn’t seem to exist. Probably my personal Mandela effect story … Anyway, great video, and they can’t be long enough. A good book haul video beats Netflix every time!
Thanks Michael! And yeah lots of exciting stuff, I'm glad you saw a few you're interested in. And yeah I was referring to you when talking about Hell but was tired and was blanking on your username. Michael I can probably handle. Oh man, what's the stuff you remember about the movie? And thanks yeah, I love a long book haul video too!
@ So, there is this woman, hunted by an evil, maybe demonic man in some cowboy outfit. She meets another mysterious stranger, who also looks like a cowboy, and together, they are driving around in a car, mostly through deserted American towns, trying to escape the evil cowboy guy. The showdown takes place around some of those water towers they have or had in small towns. The movie must have been from the late 80s or early 90s and had the distinct B-movie vibe of that era. It’s not Warlock 1 or 2, it’s not Ghost Town, it’s not Retroactive and its not Richard Stanleys Dust Devil. And … that’s all I have. Like you, I’m starting to believe that I dreamed seeing that movie. Does something about it ring any bell? … By the way, I already ordered HELL. It’s actually based on a video game, but it got very good reviews. I‘m intrigued.
@SixStringSamur4i well it sounds good, haha! And while I also have pretty extensive knowledge of low budget horror movies, this one unfortunately isn't ringing any bells for me. Oh nice! Just looked it up. What a random and obscure game to have a novel written about. Interesting!
I swear I commented on this but now I don’t see it anywhere. If you still want to get rid of that Scorpio book, lemme know! Comment your email address or something and we can arrange something. The book seems quite dope. My other comment went on about how I have a memory of a certain books as a kid too and happened to find one years later at like, age 35 lol.
Sometimes UA-cam is weird and doesn't save comments. I've had it happen to me too. You're the second person interested in it. I'll randomly pick someone before I post my next video. It's super satisfying to solve a decade's long mystery like that!
@ Yes!! I have a memory of going to the library with my mom and picking out an “adult” book from the “adults” novel section lol and I got it just cause it looked cool. But once I got it home, it was WAYYY over my head. Just too confusing and a way bigger vocabulary than I could handle. Then in the past year or two I’m almost certain that I found it, and I’ve been reading through the series. It’s from Gene Wolfe’s “Book of the New Sun”, in particular “Citadel of the Autarch”. You can see the cover on “Sword and Citadel” by Gene Wolfe as well, it just combines the last two books of the New Sun series in one book. It’s just a super rad looking dude who looks like a badass, controlling lightning or something while riding a horse, plus he looks kinda sickly or dead lmao
Hey man. I did a little coin flip between the two people who wanted Scorpio in my video im gonna post soon. It's yours! So shoot me an email with your address and I'll send it your way. Email is on my about page. Just click "more". May not work on mobile I've found.
Remember, Bryan; if your embarrassingly large book haul lasts for longer than an hour, please seek medical attention. Btw, Moorcock's The Jewel in the Skull is a killer post-apocalyptic/sword-and-sorcery novel. The rest of the series is kinda meh...
Lolol. I definitely need medical attention. Someone needs to stop me before I drown in yellowed paper. Good to know! I was a little overwhelmed that it was the start of a big series, but knowing it's fine to just read the first makes me more interested.
@BadTasteBooks The main character also pops up in the Elric book Sailor on the Seas of Fate in a sort of crossover event. Moorcock's fantasy is insane.
@BadTasteBooks I wish. I have a bunch of his books, but I've only read the first Corum trilogy, the Hawkmoon series, and I'm almost done with the Elric Saga. It's gonna take me a long time to complete his work. His multiverse is MASSIVE.
First, do not stop this video and go to literally books right now. This video is full of incredible books (also Virgil’s voice is way less soothing in person and his channel is completely devoid of color changing medieval aliens so how nice can he really be?). Second the Scorpio series (who let them name it that?) looks crazy and fun. To Your Scattered Bodies Go is a fantastic book. If the blurb for K9 Corps The Last Resort isn’t, “Dog and Dino in an epic battle to determine who will be man’s best friend?” then someone should be fired (even 30+ years later). And Operation Hang Ten has my interest. 🏄 So many weird and wonderful books. Such an awesome haul. Happy birthday!
I'm glad you like To Your Scattered Bodies Go. I have heard some mixed reviews of Philip Jose Farmer. Happy you found the haul entertaining, I love finding the weirdest books I can, haha.

Hey, thanks so much! Glad you're here, hope to see you in the comments section in the future!
@ absolutely!
How many books do you own? I see all those books behind you
@bibliomania158 ha! I haven't counted. My wife would say "too many". And she is probably right
@ that’s exactly what my wife would say too! 🤣 I have a good collection of books that I’ve gathered over the past 5 or so years.
Remember, Bryan; if your embarrassingly large book haul lasts for longer than an hour, please seek medical attention.
Btw, Moorcock's The Jewel in the Skull is a killer post-apocalyptic/sword-and-sorcery novel. The rest of the series is kinda meh...

To Your Scattered Bodies Go is a fantastic book.

And Operation Hang Ten has my interest. 🏄
So many weird and wonderful books. Such an awesome haul. Happy birthday!
Oh and Dead center Chains looks fun and I love Lone Wolf!

Happy you found the haul entertaining, I love finding the weirdest books I can, haha.
@@BadTasteBooksI heard of some of Farmer’s writing is a bit too interested in being shocking. But that one was a good book. I think you’ll enjoy it.
