Book Explosion!

Opening the book shipment today revealed so many new books!! The genre focuses mostly on Ceremonial and Alchemical rare books from England, but also included some other genres and even one from a local author!

Please understand that rare books are exactly that, rare. This means that they are difficult to obtain and tend to be more costly, especially when imported over an ocean. Many of the books below are one time treasures and will not appear on our website.
