A Multiverse Bookshop?

Not quite! We were doing some clearing out over the weekend when we found an unlabeled box lurking in the corner, it was a bit heavy but it did contain some books we’d been missing for a while. So thanks to the shifty looking box we now have stock for a book section [very limited stock… it wasn’t that big a box].

Apologies to our friends around the world, but these are the UK editions and are currently available only for shipping to the UK . Grab them fast, I doubt we’ll be getting [or finding] any more of them in the near future.
