    Hi. Can anyone tell me a good site to buy fantasy books that deliver to Ireland. Been trying to get the Icewind dale Trilogy but Amazon is the only place i can find and the sellers wont deliver to Ireland. Any dedicated Fantasy bookstores out there??
    THANKS

    I can only think of one dedicated physical SF/Fantasy book store I've been to and that's sfbok.se which I ran into in Stockholm (it's 3 floors with everything from books to board games to roleplaying modules etc.). It's Swedish only but that's what google translate is for; they appear to do international shipping and if they don't have it they can probably get it inf ro you if it's possible. The other option of course would simply be to get a suitable mail forwarder (be it US or UK) to get around the buyer's shipping limitation; will add a bit of cost obviously but for hard to find series it may be worth it.

    Normally I would say Book Depository but they don't seem to have it either.
    Could try Abe Books for it second hand?
    Kennys.ie have some of them too I think.

    You could set up a parcel motel, parcel wizard or address pal account and order from amazon then.

    Hi. I actually found it on Book Depository. It was a bit strange. I had to put in different search terms but eventually found it.
    Thanks for your help.

    To mention that many independent physical bookshops operate an ordering service as well.
