I don't really collect books per say. I have a love for Zombie books, so I have a bookcase full of zombie books. Otherwise I have two different copies of all seven books in The Dark Tower series.

Those look awesome! I love that cover for His Pain. Do you mind snapping a picture of the back cover synopsis? I might have to hunt that one out. Look at me judging a book by its cover...

I'm not much for zombies, but one of the best collections of short stories, regardless of genre, i've read was called Mondo Zombie. I'm surprised its relatively cheap via amazon(though I encourage you to buy it from anywhere, but amazon or other similar book websites owned by amazon), used to be a lot more. Anyway, the stories are amazing. My favorite one combined a zombie rising, a visit from a...wise man/spiritual leader, and time traveling back and forth, the story changing as the things in the time stream change. Back and forth. Its amazing.

Anyway, you can read the intro for the His Pain(novella) here:
