The first novel in a dazzling anime-inspired fantasy series, set in a mythical archipelago brimming with dragons and Sun spirits, high-tech hackers and bubble tea.
Life is hard for the inhabitants of Rainshadow City, a place where poverty and corruption are rife and where they are terrorised by an underground criminal organisation known as the Lucky Crows. Toshiko, Jun and Mei Kawakami are a family, bonded through loyalty if not blood. They live outside the city's increasingly corrupt law and are seeking revenge on the Lucky Crows for the murder of their beloved ‘aunt’ Reiko.

When Toshiko steals a dragon pearl from the leader of the Crows, it sets them all on a thrilling path which will determine the future of Rainshadow City. Tightly set across two days and peopled with unforgettable characters, The Rainshadow Orphans blends the anime fantasy of works from Studio Ghibli and Pokémon and the science fiction of revolutionary cyberpunk like Akira to explore what it means to stand up to corruption and take charge of destiny.

Friday’s Staff Recommendation comes from Sarah: “I absolutely loved Lost Lambs by Madelaine Cash. Darkly funny and wonderfully offbeat, it surprised and delighted me on almost every page.
The characters felt fresh, complex and genuinely interesting. I first heard about Lost Lambs through Jack Edwards on Instagram
I’ve recently started following his reviews and have been thoroughly enjoying them. He was so enthusiastic about this book that I decided to give it a go.
If you’re looking for a clever, darkly comic novel that will completely consume you, Jack Edwards and I highly recommend Lost Lambs.”

The award-winning, bestselling author of Hamnet and returns with a soaring historical novel set in Ireland in the years before and after the Great Hunger.

On a windswept peninsula stretching out into the Atlantic, Tomás and his son, Liam, are working for the great Ordnance Survey project to map the whole of Ireland. The year is 1865, and in a country not long since ravaged and emptied by the Great Hunger, the task is not an easy one. Tomás, however, is determined that his maps will be a record of the disaster.

The British soldiers in charge are due to arrive any day, expecting the work to be completed, but Tomás is unexpectedly sent off course by an unsettling encounter in a copse. His life, and the lives of those of his family, will never be the same again. Liam is terrified by the sudden change in his taciturn father. What was it that caused such cracks to open in Tomás, and how is Liam, aged only ten, going to finish the mapping and get them both home?

Land is a novel about separation and reunion, tragedy and recovery, colonization and rebellion. It is a story of buried treasure, overlapping lives, ancient woodland, persistent ghosts, a particularly loyal dog, and how, when it comes to both land and history, nothing ever goes away. As spellbinding and varied as the landscape that inspired it, Land is, above all, a story of survival, for our times and for all time.

This new release follows former childhood best friends who reunite at a magical boarding school after years, only to find themselves enemies on opposite sides of the ugly secrets hidden within the gilded walls.

For as long as they can remember, Briar Jones dreamed of attending the Temple School of Thaumaturgy.

Briar’s best friend, Sebastian Wolfe, never cared about Temple or believed in the rumors. He just wanted them to stay together forever.

When, at age 11, Seb gets an acceptance letter and Briar doesn’t, their childhood friendship is shattered. Seb vanishes onto Temple’s grounds and Briar resigns themself to a mundane life. But they can’t completely forget their yearning for Temple, for the extraordinary, to be one of the chosen in the ivory tower.

Seven years later, a summer job advert appears: a temp position sorting through the junk in Temple’s attics. Briar takes it. And they discover that quiet, sensitive Seb, the boy they once loved more than anything else in the world, has become Bastian: a beautiful, arrogant villain feared by most of the school. And worse, the secrets Temple is hiding might not be so magical after all, but a dark conspiracy with implications that extend far beyond the gates.
