I am delighted to announce that Peak Volumes is getting a new home with the wonderful Juliet Waugh in the building that was Tideswell's NatWest Bank. It's bittersweet, but is a new beginning for Madeira House, and I am so happy that Tim Dudley's book legacy will live on. Suzanne

Very sorry - because of thunderstorms and train cancellations, we're not going to be able to open Peak Volumes on Saturday 28 July. There will still be mystery parcels!
@diankenny @MrsDaisyRizo @PageFortyFive@ScrivenersBooks Peak Volumes has sadly been closed since Tim the Bookseller's sudden and untimely death last year - but we hope to be revealing better news soon
Peak Volumes is currently closed - however, there may be some good news on the horizon! Please keep an eye on Peak Volumes on Facebook, Twitter and the website for details...
Please note - we are not buying books at the moment
If you enter a library/bookstore and no-one seems to be at the counter, remember:
- if you drop a bundle of books. the bookseller/librarian will be compelled to emerge and count them all
- they can always be seen in mirrors, even when invisible
- follow the smell of sulphur
Another sunny day - another stack of mystery parcels at Peak Volumes. Thrillers, classic fiction, light reading, modern fiction, crime, war stories and more. Something for everyone.
GENIE: you have freed me from my imprisonment, mortal. I shall grant you one wish. choose wisely.
BOOK COLLECTOR: i would like another bookcase to fit into this room
GENIE: ...anything except that. i can't do that.
look at this place
it's a mess
It's a glorious sunny autumn day, so the mystery parcels have appeared again outside Peak Volumes. A quid for an individual hardback book or £2 for a parcel - that's less than a magazine or a coffee and lasts a lot longer.
Mystery parcels outside Peak Volumes again for £2, with thrillers, crime, historical fiction and science fiction today. Alongside there's a collection of vintage children's books for £1 each, and a Time-Life seafaring collection for just £4. Money through the letterbox as usual
