The Explorer – Katherine Rundell £5.99
From his seat in the tiny aeroplane, Fred watches as the mysteries of the Amazon jungle pass by below him. He has always dreamed of becoming an explorer, of making history and of reading his name amongst the lists of great discoveries. If only he could land and look about him. As the plane crashes into the canopy, Fred is suddenly left without a choice.
Rose Rivers – Jacqueline Wilson £9.99
Rose Rivers lives in a beautiful house with her artist father, her difficult, fragile mother and her many siblings. She has everything money can buy – beautiful dresses, horse-riding lessons, books – but still she’s not satisfied, troubled by her schooling, her inability to be a wonderful artist like her father and (most troubling of all) why is life so unfair for people who were not born rich.
The Gates of Death – Charlie Higson £6.99
You – the hero – must respond to a call for help from the people of Allansia. Your quest to the Temple of Miracles in the Invisible City will be challenging and dangerous, and your simple mission will soon take a darker turn as you face the legendary Gates Of Death. On the other side waits the Queen Of Darkness, Ulrakhaar.
