Archaeologist Nina Wilde and her husband, former SAS soldier Eddie Chase, believe their globe-trotting adventures are over - the biggest worry being how their now-adult daughter Macy is going to spend her life.

But after the violent theft of dangerous relics, with the only surviving guard claiming his attackers were "angels", Nina and Eddie are thrust back into action. Without their knowledge, though, Macy is approached by a mysterious group called the Knights of Atlantis - who want to recruit her.

In a deadly race stretching from the glamorous French Riviera to the blistering heat of the Karakum desert, Nina and Eddie must confront mercenaries, secret societies and the machinations of the world's first trillionaire - with the fate of the world in their hands...

"Light-hearted and rambunctious [this] is a fairytale with a difference" -- Guardian Best Children's Books of 2023

The fresh and funny story of a little princess who hates the stuffy palace, but loves the creatures she meets in the garden, from the award-winning duo Sir Michael Morpurgo (Children's Laureate 2003-4) and Emily Gravett.

Clara is a small, strong-willed princess who likes running wild, jumping ditches and climbing trees . . . but most of all, she loves collecting creepy-crawlies and making them her friends. That's not easy with a bossy butler and a pernickety nanny always on your case. When Clara discovers that an ogre she keeps in her shoe under her bed isn't an ogre at all, he offers her a way out of her predicament. There's only one thing she needs to do . . .

Written by one of Two Hoots's most acclaimed authors and illustrated by the award-winning Emily Gravett: the marvellous partnership who also created the bestselling picture book, A Song of Gladness.

On the sleepiest of nights, when the air is still and the moon is full, the conditions are just right... for WITCHES TO TAKE FLIGHT!

And among all these terribly wicked, cackling witches, is one... who is actually, surprisingly quite nice!

This little witch doesn't enjoy being wicked like the others. Not one little bit. She doesn't like creating mischief, she doesn't like making a mess and she definitely doesn't like any naughtiness!

The other witches decide that the littlest witch needs rescuing from all this icky, gooey goodness! It's time for some lessons in wickedness, and the best way to do that is by making a completely terrible and utterly awful potion...!

Will our little witch leave her kind and gentle ways behind her and join in the wickedness? Or will she persuade her fellow witches that actually, being wicked isn't all it's cracked up to be?

This playful take on spooky witches from the award-winning Bethan Stevens takes readers to a magical world of wickedness and kindness. This is the wonderfully funny follow-up to the prize-winning Grumpy Fairies and the fairytale twist A Damsel Not in Distress.

When Darkness falls upon Learsi,

and nightmares take on form,

ten friends unite a shattered kingdom,

and forgotten Hope returns...

Joshian Farstrid desired a simple life. He had his place on the ships, and a stable future. He had friends who trusted him, family who loved him, and a village who believed in him, and he wanted nothing more.

Calian desired the sea. He had his books, his maps, a promised spot on his father's ship, and now with his spear and the authority to go, his world was open. His own adventure was just beyond the horizon, and he was ready to write it himself.

But when a young lord crashes offshore, and a race against time determines whether his life is forfeit or saved, they're plunged into a world that had been nothing but story. As the shadow returns across Learsi, they discover that the legends they drew inspiration on are actually history, their nightmares are the reality the world is about to face, and their heroes are not distant figments, but rather closer than they thought.

In another part of the world, the fires of Malgalon awaken once more, and old heroes rise up one last time.

Are you ready?

El creador de Dragons Love Tacos (#1 de superventas del New York Times) y el creador de Macanudo (ganador del premio Eisner) han hecho un nuevo libro--en español--para explicar a los lectores más jóvenes un misterio que ha estado debajo de las nalgas todo este tiempo: La verdad sobre el sofá.

Pss! Oye.
Estoy aquí para contarte algo que la policía de muebles no quiere que sepas...
Escucha atentamente porque voy a contártelo todo.

La mayoría de la gente piensa que los sofás son solo para sentarse o quizás para echar una siesta, pero... Sabías que los sofás pueden volverse locos si no los alimentas con una dieta equilibrada a base de monedas, teléfonos celulares y controles remoto? Sabías, además, que algunos sofás se cultivan en granjas? Algunos vienen de dos sillas que se quieren mucho y otros, en realidad, son extraterrestres disfrazados.

Tienes tanto que aprender sobre el sofá!

Esta parodia de complots reúne el humor característico de Adam Rubin y el arte divertido de Liniers. Juntos exploran la única y verdadera historia ( en serio? estamos seguros?) del mueble más querido e incomprendido del mundo.

Lincoln Peirce, author of the New York Times bestselling Max & the Midknights, brings more laughs, more adventures, and more silliness to Battle of the Bodkins, book two in the Max & the Midknights series.

Having unknowingly crossed into a world where magic and mythical beings are more than just a fairy tale, fifteen-year-old Nessa Walker is faced with a new reality, but was she ever meant to find it?

Nessa is quickly told she doesn't belong, but her curiosity overpowers the grave risks that present themselves in this mysterious new world. Elphorea, so it's named, is ruled by a Queen who rejects any fae that is not one of them, yet the threat of banishment, and ultimately death don't deter Nessa. With the help of some unlikely friends, she vows to unravel the secrets of her existence.

Will her discoveries lead to a wondrous new life, or her demise?

Will she be able to face the monsters she has been protected from her whole life, or will she succumb to her own demons along the way?

Princess Aster must leave home to discover why her people are disappearing--even if it means journeying over the rim of the world itself--in this animal fantasy graphic novel perfect for fans of blockbuster series like Warriors and Wings of Fire.

The Bunny who worries is heavy and slow. To fly with the flock, one must learn to let go.

Be content and with joy! Lay fears to rest: the bunny who smiles suits the bunny flock best.

In Princess Aster's world, Bunnybirds live in contented isolation, keeping themselves detached from the world in order to practice magic and receive prophetic visions. Nothing is ever wrong, and no one is ever angry. . . even as Aster's people seem to be slowly disappearing. But when her father is next to go, her goal is as definite and unclouded as her heart: she's going to rescue him, no matter how.

To find her people, she must leave the royal Home Tree and travel to the Court of Dragons--and then across sea flats, through deserts, and over the rim of the world itself--to find out what's happened, with only the exiled bunnybird thief Carlin and the lackadaisical centipede-dog Feet for company.

The further Aster travels from home, the more questions she has: Are the Bunnybirds truly as happy as they say? And if they aren't, can she let go of age-old traditions in order to rescue her friends?

A sweet but sweeping graphic novel adventure, Bunnybirds offers readers a richly imagined animal world full of magic, danger, and excitement.

When there is a call, there is often a response.

Najeeba knows.

She has had The Call. But how can a 13-year-old girl have the Call? Only men and boys experience the annual call to the Salt Roads. What's just happened to Najeeba has never happened in the history of her village. But it's not a terrible thing, just strange. So when she leaves with her father and brothers to mine salt at the Dead Lake, there's neither fanfare nor protest. For Najeeba, it's a dream come true: travel by camel, open skies, and a chance to see a spectacular place she's only heard about. However, there must have been something to the rule, because Najeeba's presence on the road changes everything and her family will never be the same.

Small, intimate, up close, and deceptively quiet, this is the beginning of the Kponyungo Sorceress.

Magic, mayhem, and a marauding dragon combine for extraordinary fun in this cheeky Discworld novel from New York Times bestselling author Terry Pratchett.

Insurrection is in the air in the city of Ankh-Morpork. The Haves and Have-Nots are about to face off. Again.

It's old news to Captain Sam Vimes of the city's ramshackle Night Watch. But this time, something is different--the Have-Nots have found the key to a dormant, lethal weapon that even they can't fully control, and they're about to unleash a campaign of terror on the city.

Long believed extinct, a draco nobilis can now be seen patrolling the skies above Discworld's greatest city. Not only does this unwelcome visitor have a nasty habit of charbroiling everything in its path, but it's also soon crowned King.

Can Vimes, Captain Carrot, and the rest of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch restore order (before it's burned to a crisp)?
