About

Merrick Bookshop was founded by an independent author who is filled with a burning love for books and reading. Our mission is to spread that love far and wide. We hand curate the selection of books on our shelves to bring you the best in speculative fiction. Our day is a successful one when we've turned a casual reader into a super fan!

We stock best sellers that are popular for a reason. Independent authors you may not have heard of yet, but whom we think you will love. We have a growing collection of signed copies. And through our affiliation with Merrick Books, we have access to incredible, unique collector's editions. These books are created in partnership with the authors, crowd-funded, and in most cases you cannot find them anywhere else!

Because we are author-owned and know how hard this business can be for storytellers, Merrick Bookshop strives to be the most author-friendly bookstore on the planet. We work directly with authors when possible so we can pay them several times more than they'd make at other retailers. Please help support small business, help support independent authors, and find a book that you're going to love!

Merrick Bookshop is based in Houston, TX. We ship within 2 business days, offer free shipping on orders within the US over $40, and do not collect sales tax for orders outside of Texas. We ship internationally for orders under 4lbs, and orders will be delivered by your local carrier.
