We also interview author Alix Nathan on her latest novel The Warlow Experiment, the story of a 18th century scientist who employs a man to live in his cellar for seven years.
Chris Vick tells us all about his new YA novel about a boy and a girl who find themselves shipwrecked, and we interview Steve Feasey about his new fantasy adventure novel. Our adults’ bookclub choice is a moving novel set in suburban New York over several decades, and our children’s bookclub choice follows the life of a young magician.
July sees the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing, and we take a look at a wide range of books celebrating this historic event, and we interview author Sarah Cruddas on her new children’s book about the space race. There’s the chance to win a range of new editions of classic Irish Murdoch novels, to celebrate her centenary.
