Due to be published January 2016

We're very excited to be able to announce a brand new Dark Reads series!

Our first series aimed to fulfil a recognised need for very low level fiction for teenagers, and this new series is no different. We believe it is so important that nobody feels ostracised because of their reading ability. Reading should be an evolving and enjoyable process at all levels – always inspiring the confidence to move forwards.

Our Dark Reads aim to grab the interest of teenage struggling readers with a reading age as low as six. The previous series was comprised of stories based on classic literature. This time, each story is inspired by a different Shakespeare play – with some very modern twists.

Despite their short length, these books look 'real', including contemporary graphic illustrations and mature storylines. Each story, as the title 'Dark Reads' suggests, is eerie and gripping – perfect for teenage readers.

We'll be revealing the titles and authors of Dark Reads II next week, and individual plotlines weekly after that. So don't go far!
