There are towns where the border between our world and the world of monsters - properly called Legends - is thin. One of those towns is Darkmouth. There, our hero Finn is the son of the last remaining Legend Hunter - which means that one day soon he will be the last remaining Legend Hunter. Except, he's a bit rubbish at it. And in a spectacularly unfortunate coincidence, the terrifying leader of the monsters is in the midst of planning an all out attach on earth - in Darkmouth.

In this thrilling installment, Finn encounters an array of formidable monsters as he navigates the chaos that unfolds in Darkmouth. The story blends humor and adventure, drawing comparisons to popular series like Ghostbusters and Percy Jackson, infused with Terry Pratchett's whimsical style. As Finn's journey intensifies, he must confront both external threats and his own challenges, making for an engaging read filled with excitement and clever storytelling.

The second book in the monstrously funny and action-packed new series: Darkmouth. It’s going to be legendary. The adventures of the most unfortunate Legend Hunter ever to don fighting armour and pick up a Dessicator continue… On a list of things Finn never thought he'd wish for, a gateway bursting open in Darkmouth was right up there. But that's about his only hope for finding his missing father. He's searched for a map, he's followed Steve into dead ends, but found nothing. And he's still got homework to do. But soon Finn and Emmie must face bizarre Legends, a ravenous world and a face from the past as they go where no Legend Hunter has gone before. Or, at least, where no legend Hunter has gone before and returned with their limbs in the correct order.

Celebrating individuality, this heartfelt picture book features engaging illustrations by Ben Mantle and storytelling from bestselling author Shane Hegarty. It invites readers to embrace their unique qualities, fostering a sense of self-acceptance and joy. The vibrant artwork complements the uplifting message, making it a delightful experience for both children and adults.

Beautifully illustrated throughout, Boot is a special book you will want to treasure and share. When toy robot, Boot, wakes up at a scrapyard, it has no idea how it got there and why it isn't with its owner, Beth. It only has two and a half glitchy memories, but it knows it was loved, which means something important to humans. Boot soon realises its emotions make it different to other robots, who just function and don't think. Boot is scared but tries to be brave, which is hard when its screen keeps showing a wobbly, worried face. Luckily Boot meets Noke and Red - other 'advanced' robots who have learned to survive in secret. With its new friends by its side, Boot is determined to find Beth and the gang set off on a dangerous adventure. Everything Boot thought it knew about the world is changing and things aren't as simple as it remembers . . .
