The Gates between the Worlds are weakening, Ancient Enemies are rising and Anya doesn't want to know about it ... Anya is grieving after the vicious murder of her grandfather when Tuoni, God of the Underworld, interrupts her breakfast to tell her that for centuries her family has protected the gates to Skazki, the Russian Otherworld. Enemies of her family are gathering, seeking to control the Gates and harness the magic hidden in her blood. If Anya doesn't sober up and awaken the dormant magic inside her she will be dead (or worse) within the year, the power of the gates seized by ancient enemies seeking to unleash the horrors of the Otherworld into modern day Russia. Drawn unwillingly into a deadly battle, the only person Anya can trust is the mysterious Yvan, a Skazki Prince who is forced to share his body with a powerful firebird. Anya is hunted by the prince's dark magic using brother, who has a secret agenda of his own. Forced to flee to Skazki for safety they meet a host of friendly and hostile forces, and Anya tries to piece together the secret history of her family. Drawn unwilling into a battle with only her unstable power as a weapon, Anya must rely on her new allies to guide her but how can she identify friend from foe when most of them aren't even human? Steeped in Finnish and Russian mythology comes a dark urban fantasy about the power of magic and the forces on both sides that seek to control it.

Commended, The Children's Book Council of Australia Book of the Year for Younger Readers, 2015. Welcome to London. A city of fog and snow, filled with airships, steamcars and metrotowers soaring into space. Before his parents died Jack Mason was an acrobat, travelling around England in the circus. But when the world-famous detective Ignatius Doyle comes looking for a young assistant, Jack's new training begins. And when Scarlet Bell's father disappears, they are all plunged into a mystery so baffling that the future of the whole world may be at stake. The Firebird Mystery, inspired by the great works of Victorian literature, is an action-adventure for readers of all ages. Darrell Pitt began his lifelong appreciation of Victorian literature when he read the Sherlock Holmes stories as a child, quickly moving on to H.G. Wells and Jules Verne. This early reading led to a love of comics, science fiction and all things geeky. Darrell is now married with one daughter. He lives in Melbourne. 'A fun story, easy to read and full of action. The action, by the way, is excellently written...Bonus points for being the first kids' book of its kind I've come across that gives mention to the suffragettes!' Books+Publishing 'Lots of mechanical mayhem and derring-do - breathless stuff.' Michael Pryor 'Non-stop action, non-stop adventure, non-stop fun!' Richard Harland 'Thank heavens for The Firebird Mystery...a steampunk novel featuring fantastic airships, steamcars, chases and a detective whose deductive prowess owes more than a little to Sherlock Holmes.' Independent UK 'Set in a fantastical London, filled with airships, steam cars and metrotowers stretching into space, this fast paced adventure and homage to the world of Victoria literature and Conan Doyle offers an enjoyable roller-coaster read for fans of Artemis Fowl and the Lemony Snicket series...[a] rollicking who-dunnit that will keep young Sherlocks guessing to the very end.' Magpies 'Charming, witty and intelligently written...This series no doubt will be a huge hit for early teens, the writing is intelligent and Darrell Pitt has created characters that challenge and provoke readers to invest in the storyline.' Diva Booknerd ‘The Firebird Mystery has everything to recommend itself – a boy’s own adventure that girls will enjoy too, with never a dull or predictable moment, twists and turns that both satisfy and enthral.’ Melbourne Review of Books

"I've loved every one of Susanna's books She has bedrock research and a butterfly's delicate touch with characters--sure recipe for historical fiction that sucks you in and won't let go "-- DIANA GABALDON, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Outlander The invincible ninth Roman Legion marches from York to fight the Northern tribes, and then vanishes from the pages of history. When Verity Grey goes looking for them, she may find more than she bargained for. Archaeologist Verity Grey has been drawn to the dark legends of the Scottish Borderlands in search of the truth buried in a rocky field by the sea. Her eccentric boss has spent his whole life searching for the resting place of the lost Ninth Roman Legion and is convinced he's finally found it--not because of any scientific evidence, but because a local boy has "seen" a Roman soldier walking in the fields, a ghostly sentinel who guards the bodies of his long--dead comrades. Here on the windswept shores, Verity may find the answer to one of the great unsolved mysteries of our time. Or she may uncover secrets someone buried for a reason.
