Steampunk
This is a reissue of the first major YA steampunk anthology; fourteen top storytellers push the genre’s mix of sci-fi, fantasy, history, and adventure in fascinating new directions. Imagine an alternate universe where romance and technology reign. Where tinkerers and dreamers craft and re-craft a world of automatons, clockworks, calculating machines, and other marvels that never were. Here, fourteen masters of speculative fiction, including two graphic storytellers, embrace the steampunk genre’s established themes and refashion them in surprising ways and settings as diverse as Appalachia, Ancient Rome, future Australia, and alternate California. The result is an anthology that defies its genre even as it defines it. This is the first YA anthology to focus exclusively on steampunk; genre defining and genre defying – with steampunk settings as diverse as Canada, New Zealand, Wales, Ancient Rome, future Australia and alternate California. This title features a top contributor line-up and editors with established adult/YA/cult following. This title includes a B-format edition of this first-rate literary sci-fi/fantasy with crossover appeal.
Price : £ 7.99

This is the warm and enchanting new novel from the bestselling author of “Going Home”. Laura Foster was a hopeless romantic. It was her greatest character flaw for it was the one thing that genuinely got her into trouble! Her friends know it her parents know it – even Laura acknowledges she lives either with her head in the clouds or buried in a romantic novel. But what’s wrong with seeing the world through rose-tinted glasses even if it’s not delivered her a real-life dashing hero yet? But when Laura’s latest relationship ends in disaster rather than a glorious sunset she swears off men and particularly hopeless romantic fantasies for good. With her life in tatters around her she foolishly agrees to go on holiday with her parents and grandmother (combined age nearly 200!). After a few days of traipsing round Norfolk craft shops and National Trust properties Laura’s ready to tear her hair out. And then she meets prickly but sexy Nick estate manager at Chartley Hall one of the country’s greatest stately homes. She swiftly finds she shares more than just a sense of humour with him – in fact she starts to think she could fall for him. But is Nick all he seems?Or has Laura got it wrong again?
