Prime-Books.com Relaunched!

After a long and distinguished career we thought it was time to retire our original Prime Books website and relaunch with something more visually appealing, easier to navigate, cleaner and simpler and what you see before you now is the result of this!
We went back to the first site's original designer, Simon Logan (author of I-O, Nothing Is Inflammable and Pretty Little Things To Fill Up The Void), to come up with a new design and build. The site is based upon the open source content management system Joomla 1.5 and makes use of the Virtuemart add-on.
We're extremely excited to present this new site to you and would love to hear what you think of it - feel free to contact us to let us know!*
* And be assured that this is only the start for we will be continuing to develop and grow the site based upon your feedback! |
