Congratulations to Thomas Mogford, who last week saw his latest novel, The Plant Hunter, longlisted for the Wilbur & Niso Smith Foundation Prize 2022. 

​Launched in September 2015, the Wilbur and Niso Smith Foundation is a charitable organisation dedicated to empowering young writers, the advancement of the adventure writing genre and the promotion of literacy. The Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize is an international prize that supports and celebrates the best adventure writing today. The Prize is open to writers of any nationality, writing in English.

Awards are presented in three categories: Best Published Novel, Best Unpublished Manuscript and Author of Tomorrow. 

​Winners will be announced on the 21st September 2022.

To celebrate the publication of M. W. Craven's forthcoming The Botanist, both Mike and clients R. C. Bridgestock will all be appearing at the Crime At the Old Courts event in Wigan, on Saturday 11th June, for an afternoon of conversation with some of the most respected and bestselling authors in the genre.

Author conversation will be held from 12-6pm, and tickets are £15 (£30 to include a hardback copy of The Botanist).

Two fabulous paperbacks were published from the DHH stable last week:

  • Commander by Paul Fraser Collard (Headline)
  • The Long Road From Kandahar by Sara MacDoSara MacDonaldnald (HarperCollins)

If you're in the mood for pure escapist fiction, then you really couldn't get better than these two fantastic page-turners.
