The antidote-to-doom gift — zero Bezos tax.Citizens are giving each other hope. This is not permitted.
A 600-page novel about how we actually build a better world, from a Glaswegian who gave it away free and refused Amazon. Three ways to put it in someone’s hands. One of them costs nothing.
One — for someone you love
The paperback.
£17.99
A proper 600-page paperback, printed to order and posted by Bookvault. £17.99 in the UK, more overseas. It is printed when you order, so order early: the checkout shows the delivery estimate before you pay.
You pay for one paperback at cost and we post it to a library, a youth group or a prison library, where it gets read by many people. Put £13.49 in the Honesty Box and write Sponsor a copy in the message, so we know what it is for.

Three — for anyone, free
The gift card.
£0
Print the card below, write two names on it and put it in an envelope. It sends them to the complete ebook, free, with no sign-up. The book is free to everyone anyway; the card is how you make it a present.
It prints on one sheet of ordinary paper. Only the card prints, not the rest of this page.

Free to read. Fairly printed. Never sold on Amazon.
Where the money goes
No middleman empire.
Bookvault print and post the paperback and take the payment. The Honesty Box runs on Ko-fi. Nothing goes through Amazon, and this site never sees your card.
If it goes wrong
Returns and questions.
Bookvault sell the paperback, so returns and refunds go through them. See refunds, questions and terms.
