Ariel Books are Ron and Deborah Harcus, an Orcadian and a Kiwi respectively. Currently and happily ensconced at 157A Symonds, Newton, Auckland Central near Auckland University. We operate a monthly Antique Fair and attend book fairs.

Ron is a 3rd generation Antique Dealer with a passion for Art, Books and Food. Deborah is a qualified Draughtsperson with wonderful Computing skills and a passion for Art, Books and Food which is why we get along. We both read and cook, love company and derive great satisfaction from finding the right person for the right book.

Ariel Books stocks rare and collectables, first editions, and author signed reads with an emphasis on art books, history etc. This is one store you can't walk out of without some new, old title under your arm.

If you share a passion for books, love the smell of old books and a chat with two eccentric book enthusiasts, drop into the store.
