What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Water follows the trials and tribulations of a family living in extreme poverty on a remote lake-side farm in Wales, following a worldwide crisis. Food is scarce, the chickens are dying one by one, and the farm sleeps in the winter sun. Elin, the mother who turned her back on the world, is scraping a living, unable to cope with the dirt, the cold, and the poverty. Uncle Wil is rapidly ageing on the shriveled farmyard. The children, Mari and Huw, have yet to succumb to the disaster that's isolating the farm. Then, they meet Nico, a Pole seen wandering on the mountain, a rare opportunity comes their way and they find hope of rescue and a new life in a country that's destroying itself. "A family on a Welsh farm in a grim future struggle to survive in this stark, affecting novel with a vision that means to disturb."--Kirkus Reviews 10/01/14
