the daniel bit was gold
That's a very nice collection, man. Also I enjoy your sense of humor. Keep up the good work and you'll be among the booktube big leagues in no time.
Thanks I appreciate that!
Great shelves and great collection of books. I laughed out loud at "By some guy who loves Funko pops" haha.
Yes, that was a good one 😁
I loved that you admitted which ones you had and had not read. Usually, I feel overwhelmed when I see collections like this as I'm still really new to fantasy and I just left behind. You will need that therapist for Hobb, my favourite all-time series and the reason I got into fantasy. Subscribed and now have many more TBR's :)
I’m fairly new too! Just got into adult fantasy a couple years ago so I feel the overwhelm with there being so many books. Great fun to work through though! Yes I’ve heard of the trauma she dishes out haha
@@the_fools_tale I feel the opposite, I cant BUILD a TBR, Theres a ton of choicez, but I have no clue which series i'll start and then just not like the way its written. For example, I tried ASoIaF and i couldnt get past half of book 1. I tried malazan book of the fallen, read the first 3 books of the series, only to figure out Its just not my type. I have fallen into a kind of a bad spot where i keep on re- reading stuff because I'm scared of starting a new series I may not enjoy/ even hate (though theres so far been only 1 series i just hated out of quite a bit)
@@snowdrop9810you read 3 malazan books but couldn't finish a game of thrones? Why were you unable to finish it?
Killin' it!! Love the collection, shelves look amazing. I agree, they are unroastable haha
Another fantastic video!!! Thank you!!!
Such a neat collection - and such a nice video! :D
what a fantastic collection, i enjoyed your video so much !
Absolutely lovely!
Hiiiiiii
SOOO excited for season 2 of arcane as well! Love this tour Andrew 😍
Yessss! Bring on season 2
Great shelves, great edit.
Fantastic content, really enjoying it.
Thank you!
The dramatic B-roll absolutely slaps. Love it
Thank you!
that is a cool collection, sir. i love it!
That b roll ❤ I never like brown shelves … but this is the MASSIVE exception. Andrew has one of my favourite setups in general
Love the shelves mate! I had the exact same issue with my wheel of time collection, my heart dropped when I went to buy the last book and the covers had changed.
It’s frustrating! I wish they would give a heads up before discontinuing a series edition
Gorgeous bookshelves
I loved the Licanius Trilogy! And Im 75% through Jade War and this series is incredible.
Great collection. Wishing you 1k subs soon. And more of course!
love the collection!!!
Thank you!
Great collection!! 💐🎊🎉
Thank you Fazila!
Hi 👋 like ur bookshelves!! And ur book collection!! Great start to ur video it’s funny 😁 but fantastic start!! Happy weekend reading to you!! 🎥⚔️
Thank you! Happy reading to you too
very cool bookshelf tour :)
Nice collection!
Great video bro!
Solid collection. I love the mix of US and UK editions. Looking forward to you starting Licanius next year - as a fellow Sanderson fan (who also owns leatherbounds and WoK Prime), I think you'll really enjoy it!
I’m picky with what covers I like haha! I’m really looking forward to Licanius!
Licanius was a total “judge a book by its cover” purchase for me. Looked nice on the shelf. Turned out to be decent fantasy
song of ice and fireeee
Awesome collection and video. I'd also recommend The Faithful and the Fallen series by John Gwynne, Joe Abercrombie's books, and The Suneater series by Christopher Ruocchio.
Thanks! I do have the first law books on another shelf but haven’t read them yet. Faithful and the Fallen and Suneater both are highhh on the tbr! They sound amazing and I loved the Bloodsworn books
Very nice a good collection
A really nice collection! I'm missing Joe Abercrombie books.
Thanks! I do have some Joe Abercrombie but they aren’t on the shelves and I’ve not read them yet. Hopefully I’ll get to it next year!
the inheritance cycle by christopher paolini.
And light novel like named solo leveling on vol 5 and loving it.
Underrated!!
Man your subscribers are rising!! That’s great! 😮. I started watching you when there was only 200. I’m the real deal. Lol. I want to do my channel as a book review but scared I would sound goofy!! Lol
Where did you get your shelves they are very nice, also great collection.
You have an amazing collection and i love the organization, it was an insta sub for me! (Be prepared for Hobb, she will rip your heart in pieces :D youll need that therapist on speed dial)
You should really add Dreams of the Dying to your collection! It’s an awesome book!
I really want to read that! It sounds fantastic and I’m a sucker for a book with illustrations
I'm so very here for hearing your opinions of Farseer when you get there!
👀 might have to do some sort of video when I pick up her books!
Your bookshelf is AWESOME and totally unroastable!!👍😂🤣 So where did you get this shelf? Or did you build it??
where did you get the shelves from if you dont mind me askin?
Looks good. I am currently reading 'The Once and Future King' by T.H. White. I started off not liking it, but 240 pages in it is quickly becoming my favorite fantasy book ... of all time?
Greetings to you and your shelves from a fellow Andrew Watson, born in Inverness.
Hahaha amazing!
Everybody should read God-Emperor of Dune! Oh, and the first three, I guess, or you won't know what's going on...
On children of dune right now.
"by some guy who loves funko pops" made me chuckle
Great collection, I just don't understand buying so many expensive editions of books you have never read and don't know if you'll even like.
which edition are those WOT books you have? ive never seen those before and would love to pick them up somewhere?
They’re the 2014 editions!
Loved the Book Shelf. Have you heard of the Malazan Book of the Fallen Series by Steven Erikson? Really recommend those.
Thanks! I haven’t read Malazan yet but it’s on the list. They sound great!
Where did you get that shelf? That's awesome looking!
I really like the spines of those Stephen king books stacked in the corner. Which variant are they?
They’re really nice! They’re called “Halloween editions.” Not every one of his books has a version like that though
6:35 Nice box! Do you have an Amazon link of this edition?! Ty
This is a very good collection but it needs 2 additions you need some alex verus in your life and mother of learning.
And Maybe the black company.
Mother of learning and black company are on the tbr! Not heard of Alex verus but I’ll look into it, thanks!
I had exactly the same issue trying to complete the 2014 WoT series. It took me almost 2 years to get Winter's Heart before I finally found a good condition one on eBay. I imagine we were probably trawling all the same listings
Probably! Winters Heart was one of the hardest to find!
@@the_fools_tale I see you also have a Rob Grant. I haven't read Colony, is it any good? I read Incompetence and absolutely loved it but didn't try any others after not enjoying Fat
I’ve only read Colony from him but I liked it! It was really funny and a cool concept. Well worth a read
Are you under any pressure to read the Malazan series?
Those shelfs (๑♡⌓♡๑)
I loved the video, hope you keep posting :) I just subscribed and I was the 1000 subscriber! Congrats!
Also have of your books aro on my tbr hhaaha
Thank you so much! Always happy to top up a TBR haha! The next video should be out tomorrow, with a plan to do one a week but the possibility to up to two a week at some point
Great video and collection. Sorry if this has already been asked and answered but where did you get the bookcase?
Thanks! Next UK
"some guy who loves Fungopops" x)
I really enjoyed Justice of Kings. Have you read it?
I haven’t! It sounds amazing though. And I’ve seen some interviews with Richard Swan and he seems like a nice guy!
You have excellent taste in books! The Hand of the Sun King looks really interesting. What's your take on it?
The Hand of the Sun King is great! It’s a slower paced book and doesn’t have a lot of action, given the main character is a scholar. But it has great world building and it feels like a big epic adventure despite being a fairly short book!
@@the_fools_tale thank you, I'll have to check it out for sure!
where did u get the shelf from?
Next UK!
Im curious where are your "ugly" books?? Because these are all too beautiful!!
Hahaha thank you! Ugly books are banished from the shelves
@@the_fools_tale please I need a tour! Those are always the best ones!! 🙏
Did you keep your games
Yeah I just moved them elsewhere so it’s just a book bookshelf!
What shelf's are these??
They’re from Next UK!
No Stephen Donaldson. He got me into fantasy. Bit raw
Don’t recognise the name! I’ll do some googling
big ass collection man
i wonder how much it all cost to you?
11 months old? It just popped up as new??
No Abercrombie? Wtf?! And to think I almost subbed…
W bleach music
The intro 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Very Beautiful Books, but Bro you have HDM by Pullman and you Don’t have Chronicles of Narnia, Earthsea Cycle by LeGuin, they’re Essential.;)
Anyway beautiful series!;)
Thanks! Yeahhh I think my copies of Narnia are tucked away in a loft somewhere. Not read LeGuin though! I’ll need to rectify that
@@the_fools_tale Do it, fella!
You won’t regret it!
If you love dragons 🐉🐉❤️🔥
You know he was there to make fun of your bookshelf Lol
To many Sanderson books
Impossible
Is this the bleach intro I hear??
Congratulations Andrew, our cleaning service "Bibliophile" has chosen you for a free cleaning of your home! Let us know your address and time when you are not at home. Absolutely no fraud and no criminal overtones!
Seems suspicious…
@@the_fools_tale Just look into my honest and law-abiding eyes🥺
I see a lot of fantasy shelves and compared to mine, they all just too modern
Imagine proudly presenting sanderson🤡
Imagine commenting something so unnecessary and reeking of gatekeeping 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤢
@@swayzic8743 I would agree, but its sanderson💀 the most juvenile, dumbed down, action trash fantasy, with shallow but "broad characters" which makes idiots think he is a great character writer, his awfully shallow and synthetic worldbuilding, and my god so many nonsensical plotlines
too clean, no personality
