Repeater Books is a publishing imprint based in London, founded in 2014 by Tariq Goddard and Mark Fisher, formerly the founders of radical publishers Zer0 Books.
In 2014, after disagreements with their parent company John Hunt Publishing, Tariq Goddard and Mark Fisher, as well as other founder Matteo Mandarini, editor Alex Niven and publicist Tamar Shlaim, resigned, and formed new imprint Repeater Books.
In 2015, Repeater Books published its first two titles: The Isle of Minimus, an experimental novel by M. K. L. Murphy; and Lean Out, a feminist polemic by The Guardian columnist Dawn Foster. They have since published books by Mark Fisher (theorist), David Stubbs, Christiana Spens, Terence Stamp and Steven Shaviro, amongst others.
Repeater Books was soon acquired by Watkins Publishing, a publishing organisation owned by entrepreneur Etan Ilfeld, whose imprints also include Angry Robot and Nourish, as well as London's famous esoteric bookshop Watkins Books.
