Hi Gary. Always good to see a book haul from you. Even though these are once again out of my area of knowledge I have to say there are some nice covers there. I'm surprised that Denis Wheatley is not widely published in the US. He was, and still is, a very popular author here in the UK. The Patrick Moore caused me to do a double take. He was one of our most respected academics who specialised in Astronomy. He fronted a BBC TV program called The Sky at Night which, I believe, is the longest running TV series of all time. The Kate Wilhelm took me by surprise too. Never heard of it. Anyway all the best to you and Lucille - talk to you soon. Kenny.
@@kennyrh9269 Kenny, always a pleasure to hear from you. It is weird that Wheatley is not more popular here in the US, just not published here. Glad you liked the video, some nice UK editions. I collect UK pbs, along with too many other pbs. All best to you.
Great to see those Fontana British thriller paperbacks. Between Maclean, Innes and Bagley I’ve read probably 40+ novels. Bagley was the best and most consistent writer of the three, unfairly sidelined in posterity somewhat owing to the fact that not a single film based on one of his adventures is worth its salt really. Innes at least had the fine Gary Cooper/Charlton Heston adaptation of “The Wreck of the Mary Deare”. Such a missed opportunity to neglect Bagley for the silver screen. “The Enemy” is a decidedly sub par film and “Wyatt’s Hurricane” was a major “one that got away” as far as Hollywood is concerned. I hope you get the chance to read “Mary Deare” and the Bagley titles, Gary-they’re terrific!
Gary- Enjoy your videos of long forgotten Authors! Could you do a Post on Author: Geoffrey Jenkins, adventure fiction novels from South Africa. He had many books serialized in "Argosy Magazine" in the 60's & 70's! Take Care!
Edgar Wallace " The four just men" -great book.

Michael, thank you for the feedback about these authors. I will have to give Bagley a chance. All best!
another thriller writer worth checking out is Brian Callison......
@@grantross2609 thanks for the recommendation.
Paul Zindel is great!

@@richgallagher3865 Rich, thanks for the post and kind words. Unfortunately i am not familiar with that author.
Am I the only viewer/fan who has trouble hearing Gary’s videos? I wish he would remember to speak up more like his wife does!
@@ProfessorEchoMedia she says thank you, she is always yelling at me to speak up. I will try to do better.
@@garylovisi357 Thanks Gary! At least you know people WANT to hear you! I can’t always say that for the things I say to people.
