We’ve got a new sheep stamp for our bags!

Guess which forthcoming title we got it for and we’ll put you in a draw to win a copy of the signed indie edition…

Sadly I have yet to meet Jonathan Main at Bookseller Crow. However, I know him to be a very good thing. Jon is rather under the weather & they need a bit of an umph.

If you were going to buy books from us online in the next few days, please don't.

Buy them from them instead.

Good call. I’m currently in a queue of about 200 to get into a meeting in London and wishing I’d gone to bed earlier.
