So many beautiful books pass through our doors. These sumptuous titles are perfect for revelling in the photography in a quiet moment or presenting as a gift that will be remembered.
Looking for a special gift - perhaps for yourself? Many authors have walked through our doors (and browsed our shelves) at 131 York Street in the heart of Sydney.
Look for the green SIGNED tag - while stock lasts.
We have two ways you can make someone feel special - an Abbey's Gift Voucher or Abbey's Gift Card. Gift Vouchers are redeemable online or in-store and have no expiry date.
OUR ONLINE GIFT VOUCHERS are a fast and simple way to email your gift - either directly or send later on. Or perhaps you want to print it yourself and pop into a card. Try it out - just enter the amount and type in the recipient's name, and your name and message.
OUR GIFT CARDS remain popular with customers who like to give something tangible. Gift Cards are credit card-sized and fit easily into your purse or wallet and come enclosed within an attractive presentation slip. They are redeemable online or in-store. Gift Cards have no expiry date and are mailed out Express Post. View the range of gift values we have online, or if you want any other value, please phone 02 9264 3111 or ask in-store.

Our GALAXY Bookshop (upstairs in Abbey's Bookshop, 131 York Street) is Australia's specialist store for science fiction and fantasy books. Novels, graphic novels, toys, games & merchandise for Star Wars, Doctor Who, Star Trek, Game Worlds and more!
Ask our knowledgeable GALAXY team - contact them by email, phone, facebook (see contact links at the bottom of this page).
Many of our customers do love a puzzle! So Laura and her happy helpers keep an eye out for the interesting & quirky, the fun & useful - all manner of knick-knacks and gift ideas that don't come in the form of a book. Enjoy!
We definitely appreciate the support you're showing by buying from us and supporting an independent bookshop with actual booksellers in a real bookshop. Like schools, universities and libraries themselves, bookshops are a bulwark for our culture.
If you are ordering for a school, university or library for the first time please look here for information about your account...
