Flat rate £4 shipping anywhere in mainland UK, no matter how many books! Free shipping for orders over £30!

A unique secondhand book browsing experience.

We love secondhand books. And we love transparency. We provide photos of the actual books for sale, including front and back cover photos, as well as detailed descriptions of their condition.

Based in Fife, Scotland, we ship to anywhere in the UK. We have a selection from almost every genre, with a focus on art, non-fiction, science fiction, and fantasy (and we are always open to requests!).

“We read books to find out who we are. What other people, real or imaginary, do and think and feel... is an essential guide to our understanding of what we ourselves are and may become.”

-Ursula K. Le Guin

Wonderful website! So fun looking through all the categories of great books. I struggled to control myself from having the hugest order of books. The delivery was quick and I loved the note and business card.

Companion Piece

"A story is never an answer. A story is always a question.

Here we are in extraordinary times. Is this history?

What happens when we cease to trust governments, the media, each other?

What have we lost? What stays with us? What does it take to unlock our future?

Every hello, like every voice, holds its story ready, waiting."

In prose and poetry, the witch is examined as historical reality and as archetype--Halloween hag, full-breasted seductress, natural healer, never without peer, scapegoat, and lingering vestige of a primeval religion--in a study that also features recipes for love potions, formulas for spells, incantations, and stunning full-color artwork.
