Who are we?
Discover original fiction and poetry from Atlantic Canada (and beyond) »»
At Galleon Books we have one goal — to provide a publishing venue for authors and works that may fall between the cracks, especially with regional (Atlantic Canadian) publishers. Our goal is not to sell thousands of copies, but to match ambitious reader with ambitious writer. We are fond of risk-taking, adventurous writing, peculiar voices, and fearless satire. We are less fond of market-driven work.
That said, we also have room for work that may be more traditional, as long as the voice is unique.
