  The HILARIOUS new novel and the year’s most perfect festive gift – from million-copy bestselling author David Baddiel 
  It used to be the most WONDERFUL time of the year, but for years Christmas has been taken over by Winterzone. 
  All the things that made Christmas special are gone: the human connection, the baubles passed down through generations, even the rubbish cracker jokes. 
  Instead, Christmas is run by robots, while 3D holograms of Santa Claus called Santavatars check if you’ve been naughty or nice – and on Christmas Eve, all of the presents are delivered by ZoneDrones instead of Santa’s reindeer! 
  But when they stumble on a curious clue, eleven-year-old Etta and her friend Monty find themselves thrown into a fight to bring back Christmas. Racing against time and against the might of Winterzone, they must find the real Santa – before the true meaning of the festive season is lost forever . . . 
  In this humorous adventure, Etta and Monty's action-packed quest to restore the true spirit of the holidays will captivate children and adults alike. As a top bestseller from the Sunday Times bestselling author, Virtually Christmas is a heartwarming family story that redefines the meaning of Christmas. 
  For fans of Jeff Kinney (No Brainer), Larry Hayes (How to be a Kid Boss), Ben Miller (Diary of a Puss in Boots), Danny Wallace (The Day the Screens Went Blank), and Marta Kissi (The Friend Dilemma).

  Even though she's only 12 years old, Lily McKinley already feels the weight of the world's brokenness. She's seen it in her mother's exhaustion, her grandmother's illness, and the cruelty of Adam, the bully at her school. But most tragically, she experienced it two months ago when her father died in a terrible accident. 
  As an artistic daydreamer, Lily has a brilliant imagination to help her cope, but that imagination often gets her into trouble. One day, it transports her to a fantasy world called the Somnium Realm, where her father's secret history embroils her in an epic quest. With the help of a dragon guide named Cedric, Lily battles evil shrouds, harpies, and other creatures to find her way through grief, rescue the world from evil, and discover the power of redemption. 
  This thrilling novel by Kathryn Butler mixes fantasy with Christian themes, taking middle school listeners on a quest through castles, forests, and caverns to help a young girl find hope and usher in restoration.

  Con-Fen - When Two Aliens Crash...

  Con-Fen by James R. Adams - The Shisti and the Assistant Shisti of Mars chose Chicago, U.S.A., for their vacation spot. No worries; they were invisible. Plenty of rich food; the joint was loaded. A whole year of frolicking in store. Only one thing they overlooked—there was a curious convention going on. 
  The landing on the green planet, Koosh told himself in satisfaction, was one of utmost perfection. Not that that made it unusual, since the Martian craft all but handled itself and invariably performed almost one hundred per cent flawlessly. But Koosh did feel that this landing was a little, just a little, better than average, and his ability as pilot had made it so. 
  Thuko apparently thought the same, for he touched the other on the back of the neck in brief compliment. 
  Twirling his eye-stalks in pleasure, Koosh pressed a button on the control panel and arose to follow Thuko to the opening airlock, hopping on one leg, which happened to be all that he or any Martian possessed. 
  They emerged into warm, late summer air. For a moment they stood, filling their lungs, reveling in the rich, heady atmosphere that was so unlike their own. 
  "Wonderful, Thuko!" Koosh enthused. "And to think we have a full year of it ahead of us!" 
  "You are no less pleased than I," Thuko agreed. "But we must take care that nothing happens to the ship in that time. Loss of it would mean the end of all this." 
  He did not need to mention the reason. Koosh knew that it was because the small craft was the only one in existence. At least, as far as Mars was concerned. And of course that was because—well, actually it was not a Martian ship. 
  Thousands of years ago a lone, exploring Jovian had landed on Mars. After brief inspection of the machine, the Martians had decided it was a thing much worth having.
