3 - 4 weeks on, and I’m now told that the work directly outside the shop should be completed in a couple of weeks… They didn’t, however, guarantee Mr.Wood’s Fossils next door that it would definitely be all clear for one of their major deliveries (basically a pretty large crate full of rock) at the end of March…
Transreal Fiction is a shop dedicated to selling science fiction, fantasy & related books, together with a limited selection of other merchandise.But really, it’s about books. Transreal Fiction opened in April 1997. The owner, Mike Calder, first sold sf & f books many years ago and has worked in the business either part- or full-time since. For years he also had a respectable job as well, but that’s another story…
The shop is named after the term coined by Rudy Rucker to describe his fiction and I thought it an apt name for a shop specialising in speculative fiction. And, in case you’re wondering, yes, Rudy Rucker was happy to allow me to use of the term as a name for my shop.
