The Cannons of Montmartre is a fully self-published book, created independently from start to finish. That means there’s no big publisher behind it - just a lot of care, creativity, and a very practical printing reality.

To produce the hardback edition, the printer requires a minimum print run. Each pre-order brings us one step closer to reaching that number. When you place a pre-order, you’re not just reserving a copy - you’re actively helping make the book possible.

Once we reach the minimum number of pre-orders, the books will be printed as a batch. As soon as they’re ready, your copy will be carefully packed and mailed directly to you.

And if we don’t reach the target? No problem. If the minimum isn’t met, the book won’t go to print and you’ll receive a full refund, no questions asked.

Pre-ordering is a simple way to support an independent project, help bring a new book into the world, and make sure you’re among the first to receive it. Thank you for being part of the journey - from idea, to page, to finished book in your hands.

Pre-ordering The Cannons of Montmartre means backing an independent book you believe in and securing a copy of something genuinely special. If we reach the target, you’ll receive a beautifully made hardback - and if we don’t, you’ll get your money back, simple as that.
