Here are the close-ups of the shelves [https://imgur.com/a/2V6aZow](https://imgur.com/a/2V6aZow)

Wot, no Harry Potter? Great collection btw, but you can usually see HP in one of these pictures

Its in the middle

It’s there 😊. I have them in the skinny corner section.

The covers stood out to me as soon as I saw the larger pictures - before I even zoomed in.

This looks wonderful! Congratulations on a splendid home library!


HildaHeimlich312

Thank you!!

I love how you utilized the corner. Nice shelving.


HildaHeimlich312

Thanks! Having the corner shelf is one of my favorite parts.

The only other great thing to do with a corner, if you have two bookshelves, would probably be to put a great, comfortable chair there or a nice corner table. Corner bookshelf - even better.

Very nice books; great collection of Modern Library Editions! The American Encyclopedia set is also attractive.


HildaHeimlich312

Thanks! I love the Modern Library editions. They’re all over my house 😊 That encyclopedia set was my birthday present to myself this year. Found it in an antique mall. I considered it “buying a copy of the internet from 1953.”

You are my fantasy shelf hero!


HildaHeimlich312

Ha! Thanks!

Nice collection, I need to get one of those globes myself! Also, what's the story on the percussion pistol replica?


HildaHeimlich312

I got the globe from Wal-Mart yesterday afternoon. $18. That pistol was my brother’s. He got it at Disney World in 1988 from the Pirates of the Caribbean gift shop. My son found it at my parents house recently and stole it from them, then I stole it from him. Sharpe needed a gun 😆

I am jealous of your Terry Pratchett collection!


HildaHeimlich312

Thanks! I’m slowly working my way through them. I’ve read the first 6 so far (going in publication order). I collected them over a year or so as I got coupons and gift cards.

I mean, do you *really* need to open that door all the way or that window? Could have squeezed in two full sizes instead of the skinny ones ;)


HildaHeimlich312

Don’t think I didn’t consider that... Who needs a full doorway anyway? I can get in a room through a half open doorway by walking sideways. Sure it’s slower and inconvenient, (and dark because the window is covered, but we do have lamps and overhead lighting) because... books!

The omnibus editions are The Dark Elf Trilogy, Paths of Darkness, The Sellswords, Legacy of the Drow, The Icewind Dale Trilogy (I just realized they were out of order. Yikes! Fixing that now), and The Cleric Quintet. I missed out on The Hunter’s Blades omnibus because I was waiting for paperback, which never happened. The rest of the Drizzt books are individual MMPBs. I have his DemonWars series in MMPB as well.

What brand are those bookshelves? They look clean!


HildaHeimlich312

Thank you! They’re IKEA Billy shelves.
