Summer sale! Pick up two books, get the lower-priced one free! No limit, buy as many as you want. Katharyn has brought in extra books from storage for the sale so there are lots of titles to choose from. Sale runs from now through Sunday August 18.

Are you reading e-books on your iDevice or Android? If yes, please test our e-book store on Zola Books, an e-book purveyor for small independent booksellers. They are building their inventory and have signed many pub­lish­ers. They do not carry Random House-Penguin titles yet, but this will change soon. In the meantime we are eager to get your feedback.

It's simple: go to zolabooks.com/profile/secondhandprose, click the IndiePledge button on our page. All your purchases will be credited to Second Hand Prose Books once you make the pledge.

We just got in a large quantity of audio books, and more are on the way. Make your commute something you look forward to.

We also have a big collection of fantasy (swords / sorcery, dragons, wizards) and series science fiction, and a smaller cache of classic SF. Stop in and check it out.
