Very interesting collection Randy! Shirley Jackson is a great writer. Besides her horror and mystery books, she has written some humorous novels as well. Brock is a beautiful dog! 🐾

I should read some of Jackson's other works, for sure. Brock is really confident in his good looks, too.

Nice bookshelf tour. Those Del Rey books are great, but like you, lot of us got our start with Conan either with the Lancer/Ace paperbacks, or the Marvel comics. It's nice to have the stories the way REH wrote them, though. Your comment on Harold Bloom's book was one I agree with; I like reading essays about books, but usually only after reading the books. Especially if I dislike the book (particularly if it's regarded as a classic), I like to read essays like Harold Bloom's to see if I just missed things, or if I picked up on them but just disliked the book.

What a great comment. I feel "heard '. I sometimes think that Bloom's analysis is just over my head

I missed the first half of the video because I couldn't stop wondering what the dog's name was. And then you told us! I could focus on the books after that lol

Ha! He's usually not featured in my videos. His name is Brockmire, but we just call him Brock.
