Mission & Values

EREWHON BOOKS is an imprint of Kensington Books that focuses on novel-length works of speculative fiction: science fiction, fantasy, horror, and related genres.

At Erewhon, our mission is to publish thoughtful, groundbreaking, and unforgettable books that go straight to the reader’s heart. Erewhon Books celebrate the unique, diverse, and underrepresented identities and communities of the world we live in, all through the lens of entertaining, thought-provoking, and risk-taking speculative fiction.

We strive to be inclusive, community-oriented, and to prioritize safety for all. We support our readers, authors, and staff from a variety of backgrounds and experiences, especially historically underprivileged and underserved ones. To our community of readers, whether you come to us looking for yourself or looking for a window into the other worlds, you will always be welcome here.
