Severn House Publishers is an independent publisher of fiction in hardcover and ebooks.[2] Severn House specialises in publishing mid-list authors in both the UK and the USA. Established in 1974, Severn House began republishing out-of-print titles by popular library authors.[3] The publishing house now specialises in providing libraries and the public worldwide with reinforced editions of brand new contemporary fiction, as well as rare or previously unpublished works. Since 2011, Crème de la Crime has been part of Severn House Publishers.[4][5] In September 2017, Severn House was acquired by Canongate Books.[6]
