This bookstore shut down last year, but we're temporarily open again for orders of $35 or more. Orders will typically be shipped on Tuesday and Saturday. We've cut prices on most of our inventory and magazines. Shipping is a flat rate of $3.50 media mail for US orders.

The point of re-opening is to clear out the remaining inventory that is filling our house. At present, I'm trying to get rid of enough inventory to allow our children to move into a larger bedroom, currently used as storage. So, don't just look at it as simply buying books, you're making two little boys very happy.

Description:

Struck by lightning, resurrected, cut open, and stuffed full of arcane documents, the Divinity Student is sent to the desert city of San Veneficio, there to reconstruct the lost Catalog of Unknown Words from the brains of dead scholars. Will the process destroy him? What powers will the words unlock?

Michael Cisco has created a city and a character that will live in the reader's imagination long after the book has been read. As Publisher's Weekly noted in its starred review, "Cisco wields words in sweeping, sensual waves, skillfully evoking multiple layers of image and metaphor."
