Maraming salamat bro! Hehe, kung mga 10 years lang eh meron na ko sa pag hunt ng mga books ng MTG. So far, kumpleto na sila, maski yung mga printed noong 1994 pa. Ang kulang na lang yung 2 graphic novels, yung Path of the Planeswalker series. Pero medyo madali naman yun so medyo pababain ko muna presyo bago ako bumili... :sweat:

Naku, sobrang hirap talaga satin...tsambahan pa nga kung may makita ka sa fully booked eh. Dati may ilan ako nabili sa national bookstore, yung artifacts cycle ko dun galing lahat pero majority nabili ko na sa US. Sayang kasi hindi reliable mag paorder sa fully booked eh.

Pati legend of the five rings novels ko recenly ko lang din nakumpleto through ebay...maski amazon kasi wala or overpriced. Yung 1st scroll lang (Scorpion clan) may umaabot ng $199 sa Amazon from retailers!! :shock:
Sa bagay, yung like new condition ng Artifacts cycle book 1 (Brothers war) ganun na din sa retailers ng Amazon... :sweat:

Amazon at ebay lang ako bro...medyo mas madali nga lang kasi US based ako ngayon... Pero try mo siguro yung sa J&J satin sa buy and sell section. They can order stuff from Amazon and have it shipped sa PInas eh. :agree:

Just finished reading Bioshock Rapture. Ganda naman, it really gives a huge amount of back story to the game...mas gusto ko tuloy laruin uli both BS 1 and 2 kasi alam ko na yung mga naging kwento ng bawat character...and to see how Rapture was molded and why it got twisted, galing! :2thumbs:

Next up..either the Uncharted book or Abarat... :agree:

3rd book na di ba? Akala ko nakalimutan na ni Clive Barker 'to. :sweat:
I like how the full-color editions include the artwork. May paperback kasi na wala yung art. Sana meron na nito locally.... :pray:

Yup! Haha..binabasa mo din to? Akala ko ako lang nagbabasa nito dati... :sweat:

Anyway, ako din nagandahan dun sa illustrations kaya nung nakita ko na may illustrated edition ng books, binili ko! Hinihintay ko nga yung para sa 3rd book eh, yung available lang kasi for now yung regular na Hardcover at paperback... :sweat:

Magugulat ka sa prologue pa lang ng 3rd book kasi sobrang major character agad yung na introduce! :2thumbs: :2thumbs:

Haha..babasahin ko ma lang din yung Zombie Survival Guide and World War Z! Mahirap na, baka magkatotoo yung The Walking Dead...maigi na yung prepared! :2thumbs:

And shempre mga Pugad Baboy...kaya lang I think I'm missing the last 3 books na lumabas, ang hirap kasi minsan wala sa National Bookstore eh!

Most of my books naman are fantasy genre, escape ko kasi from reality yung books ko. And minsan pag may interesting na books based on games, binabasa ko na din kasi maganda yung na-add niya na back story sa game eh.

Hinihintay ko na lang din yung Inheritance by Paolini, ang tagal din bago lumabas nun!

Yung Abarat was in the same boat...alala ko nga dati nalungkot ako kasi andami nag sabi na baka hindi na ituloy ni Clive Barker yung series...buti na lang nalabas din niya! Ang maganda pa sa illustrations niya is siya talaga gumagawa kaya you see the characters as he wanted them to look. :grin:


BTW, kakatuwa naman yung online bookshelf...gusto ko din gumawa! :2thumbs:
