My dad has been collecting Folio Society books for about 20years now. He has literally hundreds of them and they're all beautiful. My own collection is more modest at about 20 (so far). Still the favourite books I own are the Lord of the Rings set that my dad bought me for my birthday many years ago

Yes! I’ve been patronizing Folio Society for a long time. My personal favorite is their edition of Neverwhere. I’m with you, I want those Christies and Christmas may finally be the time for those. What I really need from them though is a reprint or new set of the Poirot short stories. A new three book set would be perfect. My one complaint, the ultra high end edition they did if Beowulf is incredible but couldn’t they have also released an edition, in line with their standard quality, for the rest of us?

I love the books, my only problem with FS is that I think they employ geographical pricing essentially charging people more for the same product based on where they live. I see that they divide their website into versions with pricing that varies by location. I'm not aware of other British companies that do this. I'm not sure that it can be argued that the difference is for shipping, since that is charged separately. I like the idea of charging all customers the same price. A teacher who buys an FS book in Canada should not have to pay more for the same book purchased by a member of the House of Lords in Britain.

Such an addiction, aren't they? I bought my first folios back in 2016 when they still had a physical store in London, and haven't looked back ever since. Secondary market is nuts: you can get books for chips but you can also get crazy prices like The Shining or the Ishiguro books not in print. May I suggest The Book of the New Sun? The current edition they have is not as high quality as the Limited they sold when Wolfe still lived (and which I would have bought if I had read the book back then), but it's beautiful and it's the same artist from Dune.
