The Blitzers are Coming!
The Battle Is ON!
I'm delighted to announce Blitzers, my new book from Barrington Stoke, to be published in August 2025!
BLITZERS are the latest fighting game craze, and everyone is desperate to get one. Train them up, punish them, reward them, and then send them out into the world to fight others, to reach the Platinum League…
But Danny's Blitzer is broken – it won't fight! The other kids in school laugh at him. His brother tells him to wipe the code and start again. But Danny does something different … and everything changes.
For the people behind Blitzers are hiding a deadly secret, and now everyone is in danger. Can Danny uncover the truth? Can he figure out what Blitzers really are? And when he does… Can he save his friend?
Like all Barrington Stoke titles, Blitzers is a super-readable, accessible adventure story designed to bring the joy of reading to everyone. It has dyslexia-friendly layout, typeface and paperstock, and has been edited to a reading age of 8 so that even more readers can enjoy it.
And it's brilliantly illustrated by Francesca Ficorlilia – you're going to love her work!
Choose your Blitzer … and Prepare For Battle!
