A harrowing sci-fi thriller that #1 New York Times bestselling
author Pittacus Lore proclaimed "Powerful and gripping." This bold
and astonishing novel about identity, unnerving connections,
tortured romance, and facing our worst nightmares is made for fans
of Veronica Roth, Stephen King, and Justin Cronin.
The Arclight is the last refuge in a post-apocalyptic world
consumed by terrifying creatures called the Fade. No one crosses
the wall of light that keeps the last human survivors safe. There's
nothing else left and nowhere to go. Or so they thought, until
Marina, a lone teenage girl, stumbles out of the Dark.
Marina doesn't remember who she is, where she came from, or how
she survived. And the Fade want her back. When one of them
infiltrates the compound and recognizes Marina, she begins to
unlock secrets she didn't even know she had. Marina knows she's an
outsider, but she'll do anything to protect those who saved her.
Whether they want her help or not.
'A thrilling journey into a magical world packed with Rob’s
brilliant humour.' - David Walliams Superstar, author and
illustrator Rob Biddulph dazzles in Peanut Jones and the Twelve
Portals. This second title in the funny, exciting adventure series
for boys and girls of 8 to 12 fizzes with magic, danger, friendship
and art. It is fully illustrated throughout by Rob, the creative
genius behind #DrawWithRob. Some legends are born, some are drawn .
. . Famous works of art are disappearing from all over the world.
One moment they are there, the next, they have crumbled to dust.
Peanut Jones and her friends suspect it might have something to do
with the magical world of Chroma and the wicked Mr White's plot to
wipe out colour, art and creativity. It's time to head back to the
Illustrated City and help the resistance fight back. Praise for the
first title in the series Peanut Jones and the Illustrated City:
'Peanut Jones is AWESOME. I loved this book from start to finish -
the story is packed with twists and turns, and Rob’s
illustrations are full of wit and warmth . . . I need to know what
happens next!' – Nadia Shireen 'A wildly imaginative, big-hearted
celebration of creativity' – Anna James, bestselling author of
the Pages & Co series 'Look at this utter beauty . . . This
book is EPIC' – Laura Ellen Anderson, bestselling author of
Amelia Fang
When Adri is offered an all-expenses-paid trip to the exclusive
Solstice Festival, it feels like the graduation gift of a lifetime!
But when she arrives, she quickly realises it's not
Instagram-ready. There's no water, no food, and no security in
sight - which means there's no one to help when a dead body is
found on the beach. With connections to the festival planners, Adri
gets a front-row seat as everything devolves into chaos - and she's
in a prime position to put together the clues to who - or what - is
killing off the crowd one by one.
