'Highly entertaining and dangerously addictive' - TIME Meet Nathan Byrn . . . He's half White Witch; half Black Witch. His mother was a healer; his father is a killer. He's been kept in a cage since he was fourteen. But if White Witches are good and Black Witches are evil; what happens if you are both? --- 'A book about witches with no owls and not a pair of round spectacles in sight. The new Hunger Games;I suspect... Brilliant and utterly compelling - I loved it.' Kate Atkinson; author of Life after Lifeand Behind the Scenes of the Museum 'Teens rejoice: the inheritor to Stephenie Meyer's crown has arrived.' Fiona Wilson; The Times 'Edgy; arresting and brilliantly written; Half Bad grips you from the first page and doesn't let go.' Michael Grant; author of Gone 'A brilliant debut that is both deeply unique and unsettling; one that chilled me to the bone and broke my heart even as I sped through its pages. This will haunt you.' Marie Lu; author of Legend 'Take our word for it; this book is going to be huge.' Stylist 'Brilliantly paced with more than a few nasty surprises; Half Bad is a wickedly addictive read that will capture the imagination of any fan of YA fiction.' Starburst 'Not since the Harry Potter books - yes; I said it! - have I felt so fully immersed in an author's creation... I couldn't be more stoked over Half Bad; and this launch novel of a trilogy truly deserves all the hype surrounding it - and much more...' Amanda Hurley; Inkwood Books
