Bunny Moon
Publishing

Old books, made new. New books, made well.

We publish carefully produced editions of the great classics of literature, and original fiction from contemporary authors — as ebooks and paperbacks, for readers everywhere.

Our programme

What we publish

Bunny Moon Publishing produces and distributes books in two forms — digital editions for e-readers and apps, and paperback editions printed to order. Our list runs across two publishing lines.

Line one

Bunny Moon Classics

Restored editions of works that have entered the public domain — novels, romances, myth cycles and essays that deserve to be read rather than merely archived.

Every Classics title is freshly typeset from an authoritative source text, proofread line by line, given a modern reading layout with a working table of contents, and issued with an original cover and a short contextual introduction placing the work for a present-day reader.

Line two

Bunny Moon Fiction

Original novels and novellas by contemporary authors publishing under the house's imprints, written for readers who want a full story told well.

For these titles the house handles the work an author shouldn't have to: developmental and line editing, proofreading, cover design and art direction, interior typesetting, metadata and retailer setup, and ongoing distribution and marketing across the major stores.

How our books reach readers

Bunny Moon Publishing does not operate a storefront on this website. Our titles are produced by the house and sold to readers through established third-party retailers, where they can be bought outright or, for participating titles, read on subscription.

  • Ebook editions — sold through the Amazon Kindle Store and included in Kindle Unlimited where the title is enrolled.
  • Paperback editions — printed to order and sold through Amazon and its distribution partners.
  • Direct from the house — review copies, advance reader copies and promotional editions are delivered digitally at no charge to readers who request them.

Because purchases are completed on the retailer's own site, orders, delivery, billing, cancellation and refunds for those purchases are handled under that retailer's own policies. Anything else you would like to raise with the house can be sent through our contact form.

The list

A small list, deliberately

We publish a title when it is ready and not before.

In the Classics line

Restored editions

Medieval romances, nineteenth-century novels, myth cycles and essays — chosen because the work still rewards a reader, and because the versions currently in circulation do not do it justice. Titles are announced here as they are published.

In the Fiction line

Contemporary novels

Original full-length novels and novellas, published under a number of author imprints. Individual titles are listed on their author's own pages and at the retailers named above. For a current list of titles under any of our imprints, get in touch.

About us

A small house with an old-fashioned idea

That a book is worth making properly.

Bunny Moon Publishing LLC is an independently owned publishing house registered in Wyoming, in the United States. We work at the scale of the individual book: one title at a time, edited closely, typeset by hand rather than poured through a template, and given a cover made for it alone.

Half of what we do looks backwards. There is an enormous body of literature now free of copyright and, too often, available only as an unreadable scan or a wall of unformatted text. We take those works and make them into books again — properly set, properly proofread, and introduced for a reader coming to them for the first time.

The other half looks forward. We publish contemporary novelists whose work has an audience but who don't want to spend their working lives on typesetting, metadata and retailer dashboards. The house carries that load so the author can carry the story.

We publish in English and French.
