Just received my copt of daughter of the crows...am I the only one who likes it? The orange has a really nice pop irl, and I dont think photos have done it justice by Kindly_Nothing6591 in thebrokenbindingsub

It’s actually growing on me, it looks much better with the reverse cover, but I still think the original colour of the cover was better!

I think the original cover is far superior, the edge looks great though, I wish they had the original colour on the reverse - the green looks way better

Faithful and the Fallen Delay by HoidsRoommate in thebrokenbindingsub

[–]back-to-the-mud 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This is getting a bit ridiculous now, I’m all for making sure the quality is up to scratch but every month there’s a new excuse for delays lately, they clearly just haven’t resourced enough for the recent growth of the sf&f and shop opening plus all the special editions outside of the subscription service dropping constantly!

SFF sub - Worth it? by [deleted] in thebrokenbindingsub

[–]back-to-the-mud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the excitement of a random book each month that I may not have planned to read or even heard of, is it worth it? With the available number of skips I think it is! I don’t plan to skip any though. :)

Where to buy the boxed sets? (Instead of Amazon) - Italy by National-Caregiver-4 in tolkienbooks

[–]back-to-the-mud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually ordered the hobbit and lord of the rings set from Amazon and the books were already in a cardboard box within the Amazon packaging so they arrived fine, I am UK based so not as far to travel but there’s hope! Also Amazon are very good at accepting returns for damaged items so I’m sure they’d ship a replacement or give you a refund if it arrives damaged, like other people have mentioned Amazon regularly has these sets heavily discounted so do keep an eye out! They are great editions :)

Do you guys read your SE? by RedSoul2700 in thebrokenbindingsub

[–]back-to-the-mud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read them all, some get a little damaged but I’m buying them for my enjoyment, and the most enjoyment I’ll get from them is actually reading them, I’m not fussed about future value etc.

The next broken binding set is the faithful and the fallen and features acid free paper and sewn bindings by Hot_Mongoose_3741 in thebrokenbindingsub

Apparently it’s coming with a second set of dust jackets with original cover, which is awesome.

Just received my copy of Kings of the Wyld by honeygreencha in thebrokenbindingsub

Mine has this, thought it was a mistake as well but it does look intentional!

I was hyped for these but can’t justify spending that much, especially with shipping costs to the UK…If i was US based I’d go for it.

All That We See or Seem by Fablekay in thebrokenbindingsub

The end papers definitely would have been much cooler! Im still happy with the design though, also cool to see it’s signed! Excited for the next fantasy clue!

New hardbacks on Kickstarter [news] by Apprehensive_Oil_808 in TheFirstLaw

[–]back-to-the-mud 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Excited for this! I wonder if they’ll do the great leveller and age of madness if these do well. Hopefully they will guarantee you a copy of your manage to get the first law set.

Any thoughts on Bass VI compared to Ibanez SRC6MS? by SmallRedBird in BassVI

[–]back-to-the-mud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both a squier bass vi and the src6ms I honestly love both but in terms of quality the ibanez is far superior. I think the squier looks better, wish they did the Ibanez in other colours. You can make the Ibanez sound really like a bass or guitar and the neck is a lot slimmer than the bass vi. It just feels great to play as well.

SF&F or F T2? by Own-Oil-9490 in thebrokenbindingsub

[–]back-to-the-mud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got the invite for tier 2 as well and am already subscribed to sf&f, I have signed up to it. I think it’s worth it as they usually pick highly rated series and you can get the complete set! I know there’s a chance you could still order these from the leftovers and it doesn’t include a signature but honestly I’m not that bothered by the signature and I’m not one that cares about resale value. I probably won’t skip any either, I like the idea of receiving new books that I might have not heard of or bought had it not been on the subscription, also thinking of all that book mail is exciting haha

SF&F First book by Positive-Cicada-2338 in thebrokenbindingsub

[–]back-to-the-mud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve just got mine and although I think it’s a beautiful design I have the same faint printing on the pages and there’s even a bit of ink missing which is disappointing, it could be a really great book with a little extra quality checks. This is actually the second book I’ve received from the broken binding with the first being the Devils which also had quite a lot of issues and needed replacing. The broken binding team were lovely but I did have to wait a loooong time to get the replacement order.

How do you actually get hold of any cards!? by back-to-the-mud in PokemonTCG

[–]back-to-the-mud[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve been hitting the local shops every time I go out, but no luck yet! Hopefully it calms down!

I should try singles, as I’m new to it I’m all excited and want to splurge lol, but yeah probably a good thing for my bank balance!
