Last week I covered high-end geek collectibles, clothing, games and novelty gifts.

But there’s SO MUCH cool stuff this year that I had to do a second installment. So here we’ll be covering the best geek books, even more apparel, and some awesome nerdy knickknacks.

I have links to gifts from ModCloth, Thinkgeek, Entertainment Earth and Amazon, so for pricing and ordering info, just click on the graphic (or text link where available) to go to their respective stores.

I’ll also note any good deals for Cyber Monday.
