Sigh. I have much book envy. It's also rather nice to have you just chat nonsense about books. I miss that. Nice one! 📚🚀👽🦖👍

I’m happy with the 2001 copy I won (well half won I suppose) My first folio book and hopefully not the last. Beautiful editions, need to get those Phillip K Dick copies!
I cherish my early Folios with illustrations done by Mervyn ("Gormenghast") Peake, plus that "Animal Farm" illustrated by Quentin Blake. The recent Zamyatin "We" has a terrific cover and box.
I was really tempted by the Consider Phlebas folio edition, but in the end I didn't go for it. I would really like a full hardback matching set of the Culture series, but thought it too risky to invest in Consider Phlebas, only to have the remaining books not get a release. If the Folio Society had guaranteed that they would release the entire series I would have went for it! Tis a pity, but perhaps they will offer the entire series at some point? Perhaps in a 'Sign up to buying all 10 books' to offset the risk for customer and publisher?
I had never been so envious of anyone in my entire life. Maybe that time Vincent Gallo took Christina Ricci's hand in that weird movie, but this is another level.
Cool collection. Should I go Down the rabbit hole. I check my bank account. Already spend a heap of DAW books I’m trying to get all. Those folio love to get.
You Moid Moidelson (or whatever your name is) are a bad influence. I received the Philip K Dick collection for Christmas. My first Folio. Now I've gone and ordered the Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep and A Scanner Darkly duo. I've told my wife it's all your fault! I'm joking of course. Thanks Moid!

Lovely collection. I have been tempted but never had the money to take the plunge or the good luck to find one in a charity shop. Sadly I'll stick to paperbacks; mostly.
The thing is, I have owned quite a few nice editions of Dune over the years, including the Penguin Galaxy that Chummers sent to me, so I never felt the urge, I would rather upgrade something else to Folio, however, I wouldn't kick it out of bed
@@MediaDeathCult so me not having yet a special edition of Dune, would there be one you would recommend over the folio? I have been searching a bit and so far the folio is the one that blew me away the most 😎
I think the Folio is the best version out there, and there is also a Folio of Dune Messiah and (so I've been told) they will be making at least "Children" and "God Emperor" so if budget isn't an issue I would go for them. Gollancz do a pair of soft leather bound trilogies which are really nice and not that expensive.
@@MediaDeathCult yeah, I saw that they also have the messiah one .. very tempting to get both 😅 So far I only have the Book of the new sun from Folio and it’s stunning 😎 BTW: so cool to get responses from the author of a UA-cam video - usually it’s no responses or worse just scammers. So thx for that 🙏👍🖖
This is, without a doubt, my favourite video of yours. It’s right up there with all my other favourite videos of yours. Definitely.
Which Folio is your favorite again?
Yes
Naked people and Hitler = your Mums internet history. (With huge apologies 😮)

The 2001 double page spread could be retitled "The Big Space Bum" (after Vonnegut)
What are you doing uploading at this hour? I was about to go to bed!
It's a nice video to watch in bed, it's a ASMR thing

The cover art on Do Androids Dream. I can't get over it.

Beautiful, loved blood meridian and the consider phlebas folio wow
Very nice. Folio does incredible work.
I can hear the jealous venom in your voice Mike.
@@MediaDeathCult Ha ha I think I have most of those so that would be weird.
Damn it Moid, how am I supposed to go back to my paperbacks/imagination now?
Now I REALLY want an Ubik poster.

nice collection of folios
I thought you had the folio of Dune? Decent collection you have there.
I'm waiting for Chummers to buy it for me...
Very enjoyable video 👍🏻
Awesome
You had 27 Folios and all this time you kept showing us the $1 purchases? 😅
"Stick the fingers through the holes".
Of your mum. 😮😮😮
That Heinlein book is just like your mum.
Everyone needs a Chummers in their life.
Beautiful books. Had a good laugh each time you wiggled your finger with the appropriate sound :D I have one folio book, "Blood Meridian"
Classic Moid indeed. Keep throwing us freeloaders an occasional bone. Thanks! 😊

Chummers is mvp for this video, second place goes to holes

Here's a good drinking game - have a drink everytime Moid says " this is my favourite Folio"
The Roadside Picknick one ❤❤❤😏 Now I am officially extremely jealous !
What a lovely collection books - and a great new format for talking about books too. Nice one.
What a great collection, all truly exceptional editions
Can’t believe you don’t have Dune 😱
