This is not your average Barnes and Noble type bookseller. They specialize in rare and out of print titles as well as some books that look as though they may focus on the dark arts. My nephew loves to come here...says it is like a store right out of Harry Potter!

PROS: Interesting and special titles, rare and out of print books
CONS: Limited and specialized selection

They have some pretty cool books here. Even as I don't know much about the majority of them, the plastic sleeves on the old books tells me they take good care of what they are selling and the impression I get is that a lot of these books are rare and valuable. Most of all, it's just really cool to look through these books and browse. It's a different feel from the bigger, shinier, mainstream bookstores. This store feels more adventurous.

rates best with selection. hard to find, unusual, rare, short run titles. wish the hours were better for late night browsing. Worth the higher prices as one will almost always find something of interest.
