About Third Shelf Press
On most bookshelves, the third shelf sits right at eye level. It's where the books you actually reach for end up. That's the kind of book we want to publish.
We're an independent publisher of fiction, non-fiction and everything in between. We work closely with every author, from first draft to finished book, and we take the same care over the cover and the paper as we do over the words.
Every book we publish should earn its place at eye level.
Where to buy
