For anyone that wants them, I now have all 18 Horseclans books listed plus both of the Friends of the Horseclans collections of short stories by other authors. hengest , The Semi-Retired Gamer , simrion , Morose , mao , El Borak , oldskolgmr , restless , JMiskimen and anyone else that might be interested in those books, take a look. Not sure if all of you are interested, but I wanted to tag our most active members.

Thanks for thinking of me PD! If I had the funds I would relieve you of some of those items, but I have just managed to land a new Job and the money is already earmarked for bills.  
I only like bills on ducks and geese. 

I know the feeling. Been there a few times over the years.

It would be nice, but even the stuff that I have marked well below anyone else is not moving. It is very sluggish.

Right now you can get the original Gamma World in one listing and Hiero's Journey & The Unforsaken Hiero in a second listing. The first book inspired Gamma World and both books make a create resource and idea factory for the game. Consider getting both together if you are into post apocalyptic games and literature.

1st thing

instructions for getting combined shipping:

******
I do combine shipping, if you buy multiple items at the same time, first add each one to your cart, then once all items are in your cart, view the cart and click on the Request total button, I will then package the items, usually in one box (if possible) and then send you an invoice for the correct total including your savings with combined shipping.

Also if you are a member here, give me a heads up of when you are going to do it and I will attempt to watch for it and take care of it right away.


Next is that I am adding new items today and hope to be done around 8PM EDT. Among other things I am adding a each item of BECMI Mentzer D&D each in its own listing. I have priced them well below the other listings.

Also am listing some older fantasy and science fiction.

Ok, I have all five parts of BECMI D&D listed and also Wrath of the Immortals Book One: Codex of the Immortals listed. Also listed some GURPS Blank Hex Maps.

Odan the Half-God series by Manning Norvil - this author's version of Conan
Dream Chariots
Whetted Bronze
Crown of the Sword God

Kenneth Bulmer's pseudonyms include Alan Burt Akers, Frank Brandon, Rupert Clinton, Ernest Corley, Peter Green, Adam Hardy, Philip Kent, Bruno Krauss, Karl Maras, Manning Norvil, Chesman Scot, Nelson Sherwood, Richard Silver, H. Philip Stratford and Tully Zetford. Kenneth Johns was a collective pseudonym used for a collaboration with author John Newman. Some of Bulmer's works were published along with the works of other authors under "house names" (collective pseudonyms) Ken Blake (for a series of tie-ins with the 1970s television programme The Professionals), Arthur Frazier, Neil Langholm, Charles R. Pike, and Andrew Quiller. He also ghost-wrote books for Barry Sadler.

In some cases, Bulmer used not only a different name but also included in the books a detailed imaginary biography giving specific personal details substantially different from the true ones. For example, the Viking series published under the name "Neil Langholm" included biographical details intended to create the impression that the series – as appropriate to its subject – was written by a Dane:

Neil Langholm was born in Copenhagen in 1931, but was educated in England at Eton and Oxford. He started his career as a veterinary surgeon but gave up in 1960 to begin writing full time. He is the author of several bestselling western and science fiction series, which he writes under a pseudonym. Mr. Langholm now lives with his wife and five children in Ruislip. His hobbies are breeding dogs and archery.

Also listed is:

Warriors of Mars/Blades of Mars/Barbarians of Mars By Edward P Bradbury aka Michael Moorcock

This is the Moorcock version of John Carter of Mars

Hey PD, Sales pick up any? I've not sold anything on eBay in a while. Stuff is flying on a FaceBook auction page I follow but the process for listing items there is arduous to say the least and requires constant watching/hand holding. I'm way too lazy to do that, at least eBay makes it a little more automated.

A little bit now and then, but not as much as I need. FB is way too stressful. I have somethings listed well below others, but still not moving. Oddly some people are selling stuff with free shipping for less than the cost shipping.

I suppose that is a way to reduce clutter. I'd call one of those junk removal services if that were the case. Of course I'd also tear my own heart out and stomp it into the floor first

I have listed more stuff on the eBay site and here is part of it: the ten books of both five book series and the two prequel books.

The Belgariad and The Malloreon (note all books were co-written by David & Leigh Eddings, the publisher thought multi-author books were a problem which is why both names do not appear on all the books.)

The Belgariad series
Pawn of Prophecy (1982)
Queen of Sorcery (1982)
Magician's Gambit (1983)
Castle of Wizardry (1984)
Enchanters' End Game (1984)

The Malloreon series
Guardians of the West (1987)
King of the Murgos (1988)
Demon Lord of Karanda (1988)
Sorceress of Darshiva (1989)
The Seeress of Kell (1991)

The Prequels of The Belgariad and The Malloreon from two other perspectives
Belgarath the Sorcerer (1995) with Leigh Eddings
Polgara the Sorceress (1997) with Leigh Eddings

The Belgariad

Pawn of Prophecy
The story begins in aunt Pol's kitchen at Faldor's farm where Garion is being raised. The main theme of the books is about how it is to grow up and to break up with one's old life. From his safe life at the farm, Garion is being thrown into a new life controlled by a thousand of years old prophecy - the prophecy of his and the world's destiny...

Queen of Sorcery
Garion starts to realize his own role in the world. He's playing a much more significant role than he could ever imagine - the fate of the world lies in his hands...

Magician's Gambit
Ce'Nedra has problems believing that the prophecy speaks of the truth. Is Uncle Wolf really the legendary sorcerer Belgarath and who is Garion? A simple country boy on a dangerous journey? Garion and Ce'Nedra start to realize that their purpose for the world is far more complex than they first believed.

Castle of Wizardry
The orb is recaptured but more remains. Ce'Nedra's task is even greater than she can imagine. A great war is approaching and in the center is Garion and Ce'Nedra. A princess and a country boy?

Enchanter's End Game
The moment of the prophecy is quickly approaching and Garion has to reach Cthol Mishrak in time to fight the evil one eyed god - Torak. Ce'Nedra has become the leader of an army, that has to prevail at all costs.

The Malloreon

Guardians of the West
Garion has now fulfilled his task (or so he thinks) and has slain Torak. Garion and Ce'Nedra are now king and queen of Riva and the world seems to be in order again. But they don't get much time for relief. Something new and unknown is afoot and Garion and Ce'Nedra's son is kidnapped. A new adventure lies in front of them...

King of the Murgos
The kidnapper has been traced down to Nyissa and Garion and Ce'Nedra are chasing her all the way to lands of the Murgos. The Dark Prophecy didn't vanish when Garion slew Torak, instead it took control of a Grolim - Zandramas. Who plans to use the child in rite to ensure the Triumph of the Dark Prophecy. In the despair Garion and Ce'Nedra finds new allinces and the hope still remains...

Demon Lord of Karanda
Garion's enemy, Zakath of Mallorea, holds them captives. As the chances of finding Zandramas are getting smaller Garions sees that Zakath is far more civilized man than he thought. But Zakath refuses to let them go and the only key to where the final Event will occur is Cyradis, a seeress from Kell...

Sorceress of Darshiva
Zandramas is still one step ahead and she has more than Garion and his furious wife to worry about. In order to succeed her task she has to be at the Place Which is No More before the king of Riva. Although she has great forces at her disposal Garion and his wife still threaten her in their endless pursuit.

The Prequels

Belgarath the Sorcerer
Througout his 7000 year long life, Belgarath has beheld Events and things no other man has seen. This is Belgarath's own story about the world, from his own birth to the birth of Garion. An enthralling story about the Belgariad/Malloreon world

Polgara the Sorceress
Polgara is not as old as Belgarath but in this book we see her own story. A story that is quite different from Belgarath's. This book reveals the answers to some of the questions about Polgara that one might have. For example, what happened during the years when she lived in Vo Wacune?

[The Perilous Dreamer]

Here is another part of it: Seven books - two trilogies and a standalone book that to me reeks of Robert Henlein his story Glory Road.

The Elenium Trilogy and its sequel The Tamuli Trilogy feature the Pandion Knight Sparhawk and his comrades.

The Elenium series
The Diamond Throne (1989)
The Ruby Knight (1990)
The Sapphire Rose (1991)

The Tamuli series
Domes of Fire (1992)
The Shining Ones (1993)
The Hidden City (1994)

The Redemption of Althalus (2000) with Leigh Eddings, is a standalone novel about a thief who mends his ways.

The Elenium

The Diamond Throne
Knight Sparhawk has returned from a country far, far away. He has been away for 10 years now, ordered to leave due to the corruption of the Elenian state. Now he has returned to see that justice is done. But the descendant of the throne, queen Ehlana has been poisoned and the only thing that will heal her is Bhelliom, a magic gem. But there are more things afoot than the attempted murder on the queen's life...

The Ruby Knight
The crystal block that Sephrenia, Vanion and 11 other Pandion have created to sustain Ehlana's life is getting weaker and weaker and Sparhawk has to hurry. The attack on Ehlana is not the only problem out there, somethings much more significant is happening.

The Sapphire Rose
As they get closer and closer to the solution they realize that their enemies are far more dangerous and their allies far greater than they could ever imagine. Bhelliom seems to be more than a stone, far more powerful than Sparhawk could ever imagine. And who is Sparhawk really, an ordinary knight?

The Tamuli

Domes of Fire
Peace has returned to the world, or so it seems. Ehlana and Sparhawk have settled down in Cimmura. But soon problems arises in the Tamuli empire and emissaries are sent in order to call for Anakha (.a.k.a. Sparhawk) who is said to be the only one who can deal with it...

The Shining Ones
Within the enemy lines there are Trolls, vampires, werewolves, zombies, ghouls, Ogres and now even the horrifying mythical Shining Ones are being sighted. In order to fight them Sparhawk must recover the Bhelliom that Aphrael hid in the sea. Bhelliom is the only force strong enough to fight them.

The Hidden City
Sparhawk must free the Troll Gods locked within the Bhelliom to fight his enemies. But Cyrgon has used the forbidden spells and has conjured up Klæl, an ancient evil force as old as Bhelliom. The world's destiny lies in the hands of Anakha, warrior of the Bhelliom...

The Redemption of Althalus
Althalus - burglar, armed robber and occasional murderer - is commissioned to steal a book by a mysterious cloaked stranger named Ghend. Althalus sets off to the House at the End of the World where the book is kept - after stealing Ghends cloak; after all, winter is coming on.
At the House at the End of the World. in the same room as the book Ghend described, he finds a talking cat. What he can't find once he's in the house is the door by which he entered...
