Of Science and Swords is one of Australia's premier fantasy and science fiction bookstores. Their subtitle is "Books from another world." That may well be the case. There are non-Euclidean dimensional portals secretly if poorly hidden behind shelves. Strange arms come out of black holes to grab back the books! They haven't finished reading ...

It is the P'rea belief that Smiles Books is Australia's most fabulous second-hand bookseller, because the books are old world and they are fantasy. Bookseller extraordinaire Nick Smiles, boasts pulp magazines and weird poetry volumes from the 1800s, rubbing shoulders with fantastic adventures from the twentieth century onwards. He has Lovecraft and Smith titles. He is also an Australian Tolkien expert. Perhaps you might like some books that you can't get this side of The Milky Way? You may find this bookseller all Smiles!
