The next release from prolific writer Terry Pratchett comes to us on 11th September this year and is the eagerly awaited young adults, non-Discworld book Nation. Set on a remote tropical island recently hit by a Tsunami, it throws together several characters from very different walks of life  who find themselves stranded together tackling topics such as culture, religion, reality and sex. Whilst there are very real and serious issues in this book  there is also plenty of humour, not least by way of a foul mouthed ship’s parrot stranded also.

Initial feedback on Pratchett’s new book has suggested this is one of his best books yet so get your pre-order in as it’s set to fly off the shelves when it hits the bookshops later this summer!
