Severn House is the go-to destination for the very best genre fiction. With a wide range of genres including gritty procedurals, cosy mysteries, tense thrillers, sci-fi, horror, romance, and historical fiction, there's something for every reader. We take pride in publishing some of the most brilliant and compelling authors in the industry, including Simon Brett, Cynthia Harrod-Eagles, Candace Robb, and David Hewson, among others.

Founded in 1974, Severn House has a long history of publishing high-quality hardback fiction for libraries. In 2017, we were acquired by Canongate Books, the Independent Publisher of the Year in 2021. This partnership has allowed us to expand our reach and bring our books to more readers while maintaining our identity and independence.

At Severn House, our dedicated team works closely with our authors at every stage of the publishing process, from editorial and production to cover design and marketing, ensuring that we continue to produce books that readers love. With over 100 addictive books published each year, there's always something new and exciting to discover. Join our newsletter to stay updated on the latest releases and news from Severn House.
