Laugh-out-loud funny and instantly recognisable - not since The Inbetweeners has a coming of age story been so irreverent and relatable.
Fifteen-year-old Sam is not a famous vlogger, he's never gone viral, and he doesn't want to be the Next Big Thing. In fact he's ordinary and proud of it.
None of which was a problem until Dad got rich and Mum made the whole family move to London. Now Sam's off to the North London Academy for the Gifted and Talented, where everyone's busy planning Hollywood domination or starting alt-metal psychedelica crossover bands. Sam knows he'll never belong, even if he wanted to. And that's before he ends up on stage wearing nothing but a fur onesie ...

A brilliantly funny look at fitting in, falling out and staying true to your own averageness. ]]> Tue, 19 Nov 2019 14:50:14 +0200 Otherhood https://mystery.library.land/william-sutcliffe/510140-otherhood.html https://mystery.library.land/william-sutcliffe/510140-otherhood.html

A fresh, funny, heartfelt look at this generation's must-win battle: one earth, one chance.

It's the summer holidays, and thirteen-year-old Luke's life has been turned upside down. First his older sister Rose moved 'across the road', where a community of climate rebels is protesting the planned airport expansion. Then his dad followed her.

Dad only went to get Rose back, but now he's out there building totem poles, wearing sandals and drinking mead (whatever that is) with the best of them...
Can Luke save his family when all they want to do is save the planet?]]> Wed, 28 Jul 2021 08:10:26 +0300 Concentr8 https://mystery.library.land/william-sutcliffe/177674-concentr8.html https://mystery.library.land/william-sutcliffe/177674-concentr8.html

In a future London, Concentr8 is a prescription drug intended to help kids with ADD. Soon every troubled teen is on it. It makes sense, doesn't it? Keep the undesirable elements in line. Keep people like us safe from people like them. What's good for society is good for everyone.

Troy, Femi, Lee, Karen and Blaze have been taking Concentr8 as long as they can remember. They're not exactly a gang, but Blaze is their leader, and Troy has always been his quiet, watchful sidekick – the only one Blaze really trusts. They're not looking for trouble, but one hot summer day, when riots break out across the city, they find it.

What makes five kids pick a man seemingly at random – a nobody, he works in the housing department, doesn't even have a good phone – hold a knife to his side, take him to a warehouse and chain him to a radiator? They've got a hostage, but don't really know what they want, or why they've done it. And across the course of...]]> Sat, 14 Nov 2015 19:58:32 +0200 Bad Influence https://mystery.library.land/william-sutcliffe/177303-bad_influence.html https://mystery.library.land/william-sutcliffe/177303-bad_influence.html

You don't want to lose Ollie, so you tag along: playing Carl's games, doing what he says, getting into trouble. But how far will Carl go before he stops? And just how bad does he have to get before you say No?]]> Sun, 14 Nov 2004 18:15:24 +0200 Circus of Thieves and the Comeback Caper https://mystery.library.land/william-sutcliffe/177673-circus_of_thieves_and_the_comeback_caper.html https://mystery.library.land/william-sutcliffe/177673-circus_of_thieves_and_the_comeback_caper.html

Circus of Thieves and the Raffle of Doom

"Writing that is as light on its feet as a human cannonball... what really sets it apart is the easy humour, cameos (Granny and Fizzer the dog) and the postmodern footnotes that might flop in different hands, but instead lift the book into classic status. Bring on the next act!" The Times, Children's Book of the Week
"One of the best children's books I've read in ages" Wondrous Reads
"Sutcliffe is a natural storyteller who gets you laughing from page one" Moontrug
