Ice Schooner

Ice Schooner | Michael Moorcock

I've found several nice bookshops while on holiday in North Yorkshire, but weirdly have found nothing in any of them I wanted to buy.
Last time we were in Pickering was 2007, the town had flooded a couple of weeks earlier and at its arse end was a still-damp second-hand bookshop piled higgledy-piggledy with treasures. Well, as we're here again, I thought I'd see if, unlikely though it seemed, it was still trading and... Bingpot!! 😃🏆📚🏆

Bookwomble As I'm about to finish a Dick, Moorcock seemed appropriate (sorry, I cannot stop myself from making that "joke" Every. Single. Time! ?). This one is a faaaar future quest across an Ice Age world in search of the mythical city of New York.
I love Larry Niven's Known Space hard sci-fi stories, but this collection of stories isn't in that universe, though some are still connected to each other. ⬇️ 1y

Bookwomble I read the Earthsea Trilogy at school in the '70s, bought the collected edition in the '80s, but hadn't read it by the '90s, when Ursula unsportingly published Tehanu and made the trilogy a tetralogy, so then I couldn't read it 'til I had the final volume, which I'll probably read in the '30s (and if anyone tells me she's published more installments I'll go absolutely fucking 🦍💩!)

bnp Ummm . . . You do know about The other wind, right? And the collection of stories, Tales from Earthsea? (Ducking and running for cover.)

The Other Wind

Bookwomble @bnp 😊 I do - my attempts at humour are often feeble 😁 1y
