Reviews

'This directory is an excellent vade mecum for both academics and film buffs. Meaty essays provide provocative commentaries on cinematic history, sociopolitical background, sex and gender, crime, dictatorship, and modern families; zero in on the documentary genre; and explore the experimental. '

-- K. M. Sibbald, McGill University

Absolutely Fantastic

This was my first time ordering from SciFier but it definitely won't be my last. When it comes to buying books online the packaging needs to be good, SciFier were great they used bubble wrap to make sure they arrived perfect. Amazing range of books that majority are lower priced than most book retailers. Wonderful service, I'll definitely be recommending to everyone. Thank you.

My favourite pick for manga

Great delivery to EU, no issues with customs. Very good packaging. A nice selection of manga and, so far, the best prices I could find :)

Great as always

Same old, same old. Amazing experience, great packaging, shipping was faster since it was a bit smaller and check out was smooth as butter. I have now put myself on a buy allowance because I cannot be trusted lol.
