We would love to get some feedback from you about the books we have produced and our future publishing plans. Please also note that Ocean Press is in the process of changing distributors and our books are no longer available from LPC Group/CDS. We have signed a new distribution agreement with Consortium Book Sales & Distribution (www.cbsd.com) which already includes a number of similarly progressive, independent publishers like Ocean and which has a well-established reputation for customer-friendly and efficient service. It still may take a month or so for this distribution arrangement to be set up, so in the meantime we are suggesting that you contact us directly with any orders - either our New York or Melbourne offices (see below for details).
