Fallen Angel of Fire – S. C. Goodwill
In a world where power awakens from the depths of despair, Cyrus Drachenstein finds himself thrust into a deadly game, hunted by forces beyond imagination.
Ever since we’ve told stories, we’ve understood that battles are fought between good and evil. In our favourite works of fiction, the evil is a treacherous and formidable adversary, but the greater and therefore, more powerful, forces of good always topple the tyrant and save the day… right?
In this new fantasy tale from S. C. Goodwill, we are introduced to Cyrus Drachenstein, an individual who, like most of us, radiates an aura of goodwill. However, also like most of us, something hides in the depths of Cyrus’ being, and in this story, that hidden force steps into the light…
With a mysterious sword and newfound abilities, Cyrus must navigate a treacherous path, where demons lurk in the shadows and hope is his only weapon. Can he conquer the darkness within and survive the ultimate challenge, or will he be consumed by the raging inferno?
Available in paperback.
Having just changed schools and navigating the turbulent waters of adolescence, a young student grapples with new friendships, forbidden binges and the complexities of teenage life.
For those luckily enough to have lived through their adolescence already, we understand how horrible it is. For those of you who are currently living or about to live through your teenage years, good luck – and make sure to enjoy yourself.
In Ari Kreischer’s new coming-of-age novel, we join Eugene, as he navigates the maze of teenage emotions, friendships and self-discovery. Life at school is hard enough, with friend group dynamics to juggle, love interests to chase (at a respectable distance) and of course, grades to secure for the rest of your adult life – not much to worry about then.
In a story that will resonate with readers of all ages, follow Eugene as he faces the challenges of fitting in at a new boarding school to the allure of rebellion and the pursuit of first love, delving into the highs and lows of growing up.

If You’re a Teacher, You Should Read This Book – J. M. Lee
Written by someone who has experienced the full spectrum of what it means to be an educator, this book delves into the real-world challenges teachers face daily.
Speaking of school… you think it’s bad being a student? How about instead of forming friendships and enjoying a day of learning lots of different and new things, you are the main focus of a whole classrooms anxieties and frustrations, and whilst you’re trying to teach the same lesson for the fourteenth time, some of the students are on their phones, talking to each other or daydreaming out the window!
Relax. Take a breath. J. M. Lee, with his new teaching guide, is here to assist in your day-to-day and help you prepare for and process after the high-octane and unrelenting life of teaching in a school.
With a heartfelt exploration of the trials and triumphs teaching affords, Lee aims to remind readers, hopefully many of whom are school staff themselves, why teaching is important and why one would choose such a profession in the first place. Above all, this book reminds all of us to continue making a difference - even on the toughest of days.

Wolf Boy Meets Monster Max – Bonnie Ball
Wolf Boy still howls at the Moon - but what's this? A meeting with a new friend leads to all sorts of fun before bed!
Did you enjoy meeting Little Wolf Boy back in October 2023? In that story, Wolf Boy struggles to settle down for bed, howling in the moonlight and needing a tight hug from Mother Wolf to get to sleep soundly. In this new tale, we meet Monster Max…
The two boys couldn’t be further apart, in physical size and in character. Wolf Boy is lively and keen, whilst Monster Max is impressive but a little apprehensive. Together, they have a fun-filled evening before Wolf Boy tucks himself into bed – let’s see how long it takes him this time.
From the mind of Bonnie Ball, a huge fan of children making noise, acting wild and being curious, comes a book that encourages all three! There are lots of children in her life, and they are always the most fun when they are out and about and exploring the world - sometimes, she even howls at the moon.
Available in paperback.
Tallulah & Pazuzu – J. G. Austen
In a galaxy where alliances are brittle and the line between friend and foe blurs, the fate of humanity teeters on the edge.
After a couple of trips to the schoolyard and a play around with two close friends, we return to the front lines of the fight against evil. In the year 2179, Earth stands on the brink of a new era, yet it remains shadowed by the past. Can the course of history be altered, before it’s too late?
In this explosive and enthralling science-fiction caper from J. G. Austen, readers wake up alongside Minerva Kitkin, stuck in a mysterious facility, bandaged and confused, surrounded by unfamiliar technology and secrets that threaten to unravel her reality.
Out in the galaxy, Captain Eliza Mann of the Terran Federation Armed Forces returns to Tallulah on Luna, haunted by the cold front's unending stalemate; and Archeron grapples with the realities of time travel, trying to fix the existential problems facing humankind. But how do these threads weave themselves together? You’ll have to read and find out!
