Many thanks James for getting the signed first edition of Nation to us so quickly. Also, thanks for taking the time to wrap and securely post to us. Would highly recommend Lucius Books.

There's a wide selection of rare and classic books. Though there are also more modern publications, and the staff were extremely helpful and even gift wrapped a book (a Murakami publication) as it was a gift for a family member. I would say though that I'm honestly a bit too young to have read/appreciate a sizeable share of the items there, but your mileage may vary if you're not a zoomer like me who predominantly reads modern science fiction.

I recently purchased H. G. Wells When the Sleeper Wakes as a gift for my partner who lives in America. The price was more than reasonable for such a well preserved book. The book arrived well packaged and gift wrapped (which I was pleasently surprised by!). All of my questions were answered quickly and in a friendly manner. I am absolutely going to be ordering more books from Lucious Books. I have, and will continue to recommend to anybody.Kind regards,Michael.

I purchased one of my first Harry Potter books from James back in 2017, a fine condition copy of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. We still have the book today and love it. The buying experience was extremely enjoyable, we were offered coffee and a wonderful conversation about the market and rare books. James' inventory is of exceptional quality and I would recommend any book collector to visit the store in York or check out his website.

Lucius Books is my favourite book shop. This is the place where I go when I need a special gift. The staff is not only very qualified in antiquarian and rare books, their speciality, they are also very friendly and always willing to help. On occasions I also used their shipping services and the delivery of the books has always been impeccable, fast and secure. Their new location, just around the corner from the train station, makes it very handy for those like me who do not live in York and want drop in for a browse through their always new acquisitions. If you are in York, I really invite you to pay a visit to Lucius Books, you will not be disappointed.

We looked everywhere for a perfect 1st edition in wrapper of Enid Blyton's 'First Term at Malory Towers' (1946). Three generations of girls (so far) have grown up with this story. At last we found one here! The transaction was swift, the service outstanding, the delivery prompt, the book itself superb. It is now logged as a family heirloom to be passed down the female line! Many thanks.
