Why order here
Slipcases, omnibus editions and deluxe hardcovers you can't get anywhere else. And more of what you spend reaches the author.
Swag travels separately
My printer is in the UK and they make truly gorgeous books, but they can't yet add swag. So bookmarks, bookplates and any other goodies are posted separately, from Canada. That means two parcels on two different journeys. They rarely arrive at the same time. Nothing has gone missing, it's just taking the scenic route.
One author and one very good printer
Welcome to my fantasy boutique! I write these books and I choose how they're made, down to the paper, the foil and the sprayed edges. What I don't do is ship them. Your order goes straight to my printer in the UK.
There's no big corporation behind this shop. If something goes awry with your order, email us. Either my assistant, Nicola, or myself, will answer.
Thank you for shopping direct!

Meet the author
Hi, I'm A.L. Knorr
Most days you'll find me somewhere along the Mediterranean, pruning lemon trees and picking dog hair off my hoodie. I'm married to a wonderful man whose name means 'sea' in Turkish, which feels about right for someone who writes mermaids.
The rest of the time I'm writing elemental magic, epic adventure, fierce female leads, and just enough romance to make your heart flutter without needing to hide the book from your grandma. I started in 2016 and accidentally-on-purpose knocked it out of the park with my first book, Born of Water. I haven't looked back since.
No explicit content. No f-bombs. Just page-turning plots, vivid magic, and characters you'll wish were real.
