Puffin are very excited to announce that we have acquired two fantasy novels in a new series entitled Wereworld by British author and artist Curtis Jobling. Puffin secured world rights for the series for an undisclosed five-figure sum. The Wereworld novels are due for publication in 2011 and 2012 respectively.
WEREWORLD follows the story of fifteen-year-old Drew, a shepherd's son, as he comes of age and discovers he's the last of the long line of Werewolves, and rightful (yet reluctant) ruler of the land of Lyssia, where lycanthrope 'Werelords' reign. Before long he's hurtling headlong into an epic journey of fantasy and horror, from one deadly encounter to the next, meeting exotic Werelords at every turn as he's drawn inexorably towards his destiny.
