I accept George R.R. Martin donations anywhere in the Albuquerque metro with free pickup — the whole collection: A Song of Ice and Fire (A Game of Thrones through A Dance with Dragons), the Dunk and Egg novellas, Fire & Blood, the early novels, Tuf Voyaging, the Wild Cards books he edits, and the short fiction. You don't sort or price anything. Bring it all: I check every book by hand, and readable copies go back to readers.
Published June 2026 · By Josh Eldred, New Mexico Literacy Project
Martin is our neighbor — he has lived and worked in Santa Fe for decades, which makes a New Mexico GRRM collection a little bit of a local story. His readers keep deep shelves of the Ice and Fire books plus the earlier work, and when those shelves get cleared, most people just want them gone. That's exactly what I'm for: I take the whole thing, free, and I check every book.
What I take: all of it
A Song of Ice and Fire
A Game of Thrones, A Clash of Kings, A Storm of Swords, A Feast for Crows, and A Dance with Dragons; the Dunk and Egg novellas (A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms); Fire & Blood and The World of Ice & Fire; the boxed sets and HBO tie-in editions.
The earlier novels & stories
Dying of the Light, Windhaven (with Lisa Tuttle), Fevre Dream, The Armageddon Rag, Tuf Voyaging, and the short-story collections (A Song for Lya, Sandkings, Songs of Stars and Shadows, Dreamsongs).
Wild Cards & the rest
The long-running Wild Cards shared-world anthologies he edits, the screenplays and Beauty and the Beast tie-ins, and any companion or art books. Any edition, any condition.
Why bring the whole shelf
Donating takes one call or text: no research, no pricing, no listings, no shipping. Free pickup in the Albuquerque metro, or the covered 24/7 drop box outside the gate at 5445 Edith Blvd NE, any hour. I check every book by hand, readable copies go back to readers, and no readable book goes to the landfill. Here's where donated books go.
How free pickup works
Call or text 505-250-3804 (or schedule online), tell me roughly how much there is and where you are, and I add you to the next route through your area. I come to you and load it all. I cover Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Corrales, the East Mountains, and the surrounding metro, and I handle whole-house and estate cleanouts regularly.
