Matariki business hours
We are open for business as usual for Matariki this Friday 10th July, please feel free to pop in and see us
Bad weather interruptions
There are more delays expected for domestic deliveries as bad weather continues to batter the country. This means your packages may take a little longer to reach you. We're very sorry for this disruption and we appreciate your patience during this turbulant weather.
Can't find what you're looking for?
Our mysterious top floor (Dunedin premises) isn't pretty, but gosh, there are a lot of books up here - a couple of hundred thousand is the estimate! All of these (pictured - and others) are waiting to be processed so if you can't find what you're looking for either on our website or in store then please email us at either our Dunedin or Auckland locations and let us know what you're after and we can search our mystery floor for a copy. Don't be fooled - it's a lot more organised than it looks!

This set will set you back a worthy NZ$180.00 (plus shipping)
"Stone is the ancestor of all.
It is of the beginning
And the timeless spirit
That joins star to star
And age to age.
Out of stone comes life.
We are of the stone
And the stone is of us.
Hold it close, feel its power.
Hear its song and prepare
To enter realms known
But long forgotten
Journey well.
May the good go with you."
- from the opening of the first book "Song of the Circle" in the chronicles
