Fanzines And Books
There is no full list or category of Fanzines And Books about The Sisters of Mercy within this Wiki as yet.
It's all work in progress with no move since 2014, but hell, maybe one day or not... we don't know no shame.
Current projects
There are currently two books about The Sisters of Mercy either recently released or still in the process of production, that can officially be ordered along various means directly from the authors. Both are as good as you can get, when it comes to The Sisters of Mercy history up to 1985.
| This page is Work in Progress and going to be extended as soon as ever possible |
... maybe a short mention should also be made of ...
