New stuff!

Sorry for the posting lapse - been flat out putting everything together for our Massive Second-hand Book Sale next weekend. But I wanted to let you know about a whole heap of new stock:
For the sinister and disturbed minds, we have just received heaps of large-format Koontz, Higgins-Clark, King, Kellerman, Patterson, Cornwell and more. As you know, our space is not conducive to large-format fiction so these are priced to fly out the door. For the more refined, a copy of Collecting Irish Silver by Douglas Bennett (the guide/bible for any serious collector). For the young-at-heart, some lovely Madeline adventures. For the locals, some excellent SA history books - and on that note, we only have one set of the Biographical Index of South Australians 1836-1885 left. Oh, and an as-new copy of Ingleton's Matthew Flinders - Navigator and Chartmaker (it really is great!).
Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg as we're always getting something weird and wonderful to put on the shelves! See you soon...

Don't miss our Massive Book Sale!!!

OK, diaries out? Pens ready? Here are the details...

Saturday, November 7 from 9am to 9pm
Sunday, November 8 from 9am to 5pm
Norwood Town Hall, 175 The Parade (enter off George St)

For the uninitiated:
Some of you may remember our Massive Hills Sales in Mt Barker & Stirling. While these were a big hit, we are striving for perfection and we guarantee you will not come to a better sale of secondhand books this year. In fact, you may never have seen anything like it!
We're making it more convenient and more vibrant by plonking ourselves right in the heart of Norwood on one of Adelaide's most cosmopolitan strips, The Parade.
Anyone know the name Michael Treloar? He's the guy who's been running those brilliant sales at the St Peters Town Hall for the last 200 years (give or take). Well, Mick's joining forces with Chapter Two Books for what promises to be a sale to savour. Bring a bag, box, granny trolley, shopping trolley, forklift or whatever you need to satisfy your need to read (I feel the need...)!

See you at The Sale!
Nick & Kate

Open All Long Weekend

Hi Everyone

Your favourite little bookshop is open all long weekend (10am-4pm). Say "G'day" to Rob on either Sunday or Monday. I'm sure he'd love to have a chat - especially about the great new SF stuff that's come in - Moorcock, Blish, Asimov, Vonnegut... they're all there in vintage 60s & 70s paperback. Our crime section's looking great at the moment as well plus all the sublime non-fiction you've come to expect from Adelaide's best pound-for-pound second-hand bookshop!
