The Incendiaries

Located in the heart of Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood, The Elliott Bay Book Company is a full service bookstore, home to over 150,000 titles, set on cedar shelves in a multi-level, inviting unique atmosphere.

They offer one of the region's best selection of new books, as well as a large collection of bargain editions. Elliott Bay presents an unparalleled schedule of author readings and events throughout the year.

Daily, they provide a space for our customers to browse, read, eat, drink and discover new and favorite writers. An independent bookstore in the best sense of the term (meaning they're truly interdependent with their community and with their customers), they pride themselves on being a knowledgeable staff of booksellers who do their best to locate just the books you are seeking. They offer special order services, book group presentations, a fine selection of books on tape, signed first editions, magazines and journals, cards and more.

More than anything, they are sustained by the support, curiosity, and enthusiasm for reading that you, the readers, constantly demonstrate to them. For that they are more than grateful. Please join them soon—whether it's a quick dash in for a particular book you already have in mind, or several pleasurable, mind-meandering hours of browsing.
