Cyrano's carries as wide a selection of books as space permits. We try to focus on what's best and lasting in each category of books we stock. With 1.6 million books in print, we can't carry them all in our little 700 square feet, so we have to be very selective. Actually this gives us an advantage. Customers return because we prune out most of what they don't want anyway. What's left is what they can't seem to stop buying.

Our categories, intentionally general and diverse, include fiction, history, biography, science, religion, philosophy, occult, psychology, mystery, suspense, sports, cooking, gardening, music, art, architecture, antiques, health, diet, family, nature, regional, science fiction, fantasy, humor, the classics, drama, poetry, and books for young people from infant through teenager.

A third of our business derives from special orders for customers who live out of state and can't find what they're seeking elsewhere. They know that, if it exists, we'll find it for them. Our motto has always been "Don't forget us, because we won't forget you, even if it takes four years to find your book!"

Feel free to contact us anytime for more information about our services by calling (828) 526-5488, faxing (828) 526-4483, or
