Gravity keeps me here. Or love, which is kind of the same thing.
A spectacular new illustrated book for readers aged 9-99 about home and belonging from the internationally renowned artist Shaun Tan.
'When it comes to originality and genius, Tan is in a league of his own.' - The Irish Independent
A girl lives with her family, friends and neighbours in her hometown. Every so often, she can't help wondering if there might be more out there for her. But life is good.
When a strange human boy lands in her hometown and insists she return to her 'real home' - with him, the girl must make a choice. Where does she truly belong?
A beautifully illustrated, thoughtful and funny story about finding your place in the world.
'Loved it! Chock-full of magic!!' - Guilermo Del Toro
'Visually stunning … a masterpiece, showcasing an artist at the height of his powers' - The New York Times
'It is one of those stories we discussed long after I'd finished reading. Perfect fuel for a voracious imagination.' - The ObserverBe careful what you pray for.
Cod became an archaeologist to chase the ghost of her hero, Aleya Ana-Ulai. History may have written Aleya off as a myth, but Cod is determined to prove she existed, even if it means sifting through relics for the rest of her life.
Then a message arrives summoning her home. Cod's former teacher has found something monumental: the ruins of an enchanted city, slumbering beneath the soil.
This could be the breakthrough they've always dreamed of. But with war brewing, rival powers circling, and ancient magics stirring underfoot, their discovery soon becomes far more trouble than it's worth. Even Cod starts to wonder if some things are better left buried . . .
Unbury the past in this whip-smart sapphic fantasy mystery, from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Floating Hotel and Idolfire, perfect for fans of Max Gladstone and Hannah Kaner.
