A very unique and niche bookstore that hosted a lovely art show. The vibes were thoughtful, lowlit and green. The people were kind and informative. The book selection itself was the most curated that I’ve ever seen before with books fanning from pop fiction, history, religious texts and smut. 10/10

Great shop with an excellent selection of new and used. I went in knowing what I wanted from the online store, but there’s so much to browse once you’re inside. Will definitely be back.

I always find cool graphic novels and missing volumes to fill the holes in my collection.

This place caught my eye while I was in town for a concert. I am a big fan of science fiction and weird fiction and a bookstore so obviously named after a China Mieville book set high expectations and let me tell you I was not disappointed in the slightest. Both the new and used section were excellently curated. I could have easily blown a ton of money there, so much good stuff. I do not find myself in Hamilton regularly but this is now a must stop every time I do. I wholeheartedly recommend this store, especially (but not exclusively) to fans of speculative fiction.
