This is possibly the strangest book we've done thus far...

It's also absolutely brilliant.

You'll laugh, wince and question the motives of billionaire tech "philanthropists" 👀
Tomorrow: the concluding part of the hilarious adventure story that is The Disruptors by Joe Darlington!

What will Sammy do next after busting John Barton out of prison? Where has Zane Lund disappeared to? And what has become of Pixie and her wings?

Rachel Canwell's Magpie Moon tells of mothers and daughters, of medicine and magic; is a crisp walk through the dark days of girlhood where sisters collude and the kind can turn cruel.

Love this book. It's the sort of offbeat and subversive read that is written for people who love the English language. Thought provoking, unpredictable and beautifully written, with a really interesting water motif running throughout. An unreal debut novel!
We recently passed a 6 month anniversary of John Storey's A Drowning Man: A Manchester Noir!

An exquisitely written mystery novel, bumbling PI Tom is hired to find a missing student in the wake of his mother's death. Poetic and tragic, it's a must read!

Receiving and opening the eARC of the book was rather exciting. Seeing it there in my iBooks library alongside some well known writers was a really cool feeling. Can’t wait to get a hard copy at some point soon.
