WELCOME...
Our epic quest has brought us to rest in a small hole-in-the wall (the best dwelling place for magical creatures) shop in North Haven, CT. Here resides some number of aged leather bound tomes (and some newer books too), a cup of tea waiting for you, and endless wonder. Maybe a cat? Most of the time our cats prefer their more luxurious home live where servants dwell on their every need, but we’ll see if they might occasionally make an appearance in the bookstore.
Please stop by to visit us during our scheduled opening hours or reach out to us and schedule an appointment. Our bookstore stock is largely different from the books you’ll find on our online catalogue. If there’s a particular book or books from our catalogue you’d like to see please reach out to us ahead of time and we’ll make sure to bring those book with us for you to peruse.
Our goals remain to build a community focused, safe, and welcoming environment for bibliophiles of all identities and socioeconomic backgrounds.
You may still place orders online and expect the finest in quick shipping (we ship within two business days of an order being placed) and quality used books. Our tomes range from the modern to the 17th century and cover all matter of subjects and genres.
We specialize in science fiction, science (particularly astronomy), 18th and 19th century texts, and history although we have books for just about everyone in all fields from Romance to Children's Literature. Please BROWSE our collection!
