Sandstone Books: first editions of modern fiction, as well as stocking many other out of print and rare books from the last hundred years.

Established in 1989 we specialise in first editions of fiction from the last hundred years, catering for all budgets with a range of affordable old favourites to the more expensive, sought after rarities. We also hold a smaller selection of other first edition books including children’s, New Naturalists, biographies as well as a good range of paperback vintage crime. All books are free delivery in the UK.

For information on the terms used to describe a book’s condition please visit our Useful Information section.

We also operate a free book search service so please phone or email us with your wants: any genre, any edition. We will happily carry out a search on your behalf and, when we find the book(s), we will offer them to you at a fair price. Please be assured that, if the book(s) does not meet your requirements in any way, including the price, there is no obligation for you to make a purchase.

We look forward to your custom and welcome any feedback you may have about any aspect of our service and our stock.
