Set books

I produce running vocabularies for set texts. They are sold at a fixed price and you can print copies as required. The A Levels (and some IB) cost £36 and GCSEs £26. I have a huge back-list of nearly all the set-texts for the last twenty years, and a few more. I hope that this will be published on my site soon. Some students may want to read beyond the syllabus. If there is something you are looking for, do ask.
