Shiori'anma, the only princess of Kiata, has a secret. Forbidden magic runs in her veins. And on the morning of her betrothal ceremony, Shiori loses control. At first, her mistake seems like a stroke of luck, forestalling the wedding she never wanted, but it also catches the attention of Raikama, her stepmother. A sorceress in her own right, Raikama banishes the young princess, turning her brothers into cranes, and warning Shiori that she must speak of it to no one: for with every word that escapes her lips, one of her brothers will die. Penniless, voiceless, and alone, Shiori searches for her brothers, and uncovers a dark conspiracy to seize the throne. Only Shiori can set the kingdom to rights, but to do so she must place her trust in a paper bird, a mercurial dragon, and the very boy she fought so hard not to marry. And she must embrace the magic she's been taught all her life to contain - no matter what it costs. 9781471411786 THE RELUCTANT VAMPIRE QUEEN PAPERBACK HOT KEY BOOKS SGD 15.95 / MYR 47.90 PUB DATE: JULY 2022 Meet Mo Merrydrew - independent young woman, Mini Battenburg fan, president of the history club - and reluctant vampire queen... Fifteen-year-old Mo Merrydrew isn't exactly expecting to be asked to be Vampire Queen of Great Britain when she's cycling home from school one wet Tuesday evening. Apparently, she is 'the Chosen One'. Aside from being uncomfortable with the idea of unelected power (not very democratic), there's the blood drinking to consider (Mo is a vegetarian), and frankly it's just not really the sort of role Mo's looking for (she wants to aim for a real job in politics). But - if you're Vampire Queen, you probably don't have to do PE any more, and when the dreamy Luca, a vampire familiar, turns up, it all suddenly starts to look a bit more appealing... Geek Girl meets Buffy in a brilliantly funny new teen series from bestselling author Jo Simmons. 9781408717431 FANTASTIC BEASTS: THE SECERETS OF DUMBLEDORE (EXCLUSIVE IN SG & MY) HARDCOVER LITTLE, BROWN UK SGD 37.34 / MYR 119.90 PUB DATE: JULY 2022 BACKLIST 9780751578287 FANTASTIC BEASTS: THE CRIMES OF GRINDELWALD 9780751574951 FANTASTIC BEASTS & WHERE TO FIND THEM Professor Albus Dumbledore knows the powerful Dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald is moving to seize control of the wizarding world.
