Shaolin Burning by Ant Sang

Shaolin Burning is the fantastic graphic novel  by award-winning New Zealand cartoonist, Ant Sang.  It’s a mix of kung fu legend and Chinese history, and it’s totally cool.  You might recognize his illustrations because he was one of the creators of NZ TV series, bro’ Town.  Check out this great book trailer by publishers, HarperCollins NZ.

You can also check out an interview with him from TV3’s Nightline programme.

Across the Universe – hottest YA of 2011

Across the Universe by Beth Revis is going to be one of the hottest YA novels of 2011.  I absolutely loved it and will be posting my review as soon as the book is published in NZ on 4 January.  If you’re anticipating its release or want to know more about it, check out this fantastic book trailer:

It has something for everyone – a dystopian society, science fiction, mystery, murder and a touch of romance.
