Dear Nevermoorians,
We have some very important news ...
"I think a lot of readers had already guessed this might happen, judging from the many questions I’ve had about whether Covid-19 would affect the release date. It’s a bummer, but honestly a small one given everything else that’s happening in the world.
We HOPE this will mean that when Hollowpox does come out, bookshops will be open again and a tour might be back on the cards… so I can actually see some of you and we can celebrate in person! (What a joyful and miraculous concept, she thought, gazing longingly from her window…)
If you have pre-ordered, two things:
1. You are an angel walking on this earth, may your troubles be few, your blessings many and may you always have good biscuits in your cupboard.
2. I'm told there's nothing you need to do, and that your pre-order should carry over. Like MAGIC." - author Jessica Townsend @digressica
Hollowpox: The Hunt for Morrigan Crow is the third book in the best-selling Nevermoor series. Morrigan Crow faces her most dangerous challenge yet in her latest Wundrous adventure. The highly anticipated third book in the award-winning Nevermoor series from one of Australia's best selling and most loved authors.
Morrigan Crow and her friends have survived their first year as proud scholars of the elite Wundrous Society, helped bring down the nefarious Ghastly Market, and proven themselves loyal to Unit 919. Now Morrigan faces a new, exciting challenge: to master the mysterious Wretched Arts of the Accomplished Wundersmith, and control the power that threatens to consume her.
But a strange illness has taken hold of Nevermoor's magical Wunimals, turning them into mindless, vicious unnimals on the hunt. With the city she loves in a state of fear, Morrigan quickly realises it's up to her to find a cure.
Part confessional, part manifesto, Middle Rage is full of Myf Warhurst's humour, warmth and wisdom, with some tips thrown in to help women live their best middle-aged lives.
