About Us

20th Century Books is a popular culture bookstore and bookseller formed in 1979 in Madison Wisconsin by Hank Luttrell, specializing in new, used and rare science fiction, fantasy, comics, mysteries and all sorts of related popular culture topics. We sell books and related items mail order through various web based platforms including our "Amazon" store, our "Ebay/Half.com" store, and our Biblio.com store.

If you are planning on visiting the Madison, Wisconsin area plan on visiting our “real” store at 1421 South Park, Madison, WI 53715. We are open Monday-Saturday from 10 until 5:30, and Sunday noon until 5:30. Send us a stamped, self-addressed envelope and request the Madison Independent Booksellers' Association "Guide to Madison Area Bookstores" with an annotated map!

As many items as we list in our internet catalogs, we are always working on adding inventory, and we can never list everything. If there are particular titles that you are looking for, let us know, send us your want lists. Or your questions. We have customers and contacts all over the world, and if we don't have, or know, what you need or want to find out, we can probably help you in some significant way.
