Them Bones - Howard Waldrop

 

One of my favorite science fiction novels and one of my favorite science fiction writers. Mr. Waldrop is from Mississippi and is an avid fisherman. Them Bones is an alternate history/time travel novel partly set in Louisiana in the late 20s, and also concerning the mound building cultures in the ancient past of Louisiana, which I have a real interest in. Two of the mound sites in Louisiana are the oldest dated mounds in North America. One is the popular tourist attraction, Poverty Point, but the other is much older, and is on private land, so it hasn't attracted much attention, Watson Brake.

Martians and Misplaced Clues: The Life and Work of Fredric Brown - Jack Seabrook

 

Not much is known about Fredric Brown's life, so the biography part is limited, but it is a nice overview of his output in the crime genre and science fiction.

Dune Paperbacks

 

These are in good condition. I would have to look and see what printing they are. The blue trade paperbacks below already had some value. The hardcover Children of Dune below is a second printing.

Frankenstein by Mary Shelley and The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects

 

Vintage paperbacks. Found this the other day in one of the recovered image folders. Must have been two I missed in my paperback cover photo project. That happened pretty often.
