The Long Water - The Advertiser
Gripping literary mystery set in a remote Norwegian community By Stef Penney Author of the Costa-prizewinning, world-wide bestseller The Tenderness of Wolves, Stef Penney, returns to her snow-covered heartland in this tense mystery set in a small Scandinavian town. Nordland. A region in the Norwegian Arctic; a remote valley that stretches from the sea up to the mountains and glaciers. It is May in what was once a prosperous mining community.

Anne is a former patient from a women's asylum trying to carve out a new life for herself in a world that doesn't understand her.

From hot new fiction to a gripping health treatise, we’ve rounded up the best releases of the season here.
Gay love stories in historical fiction
What was it like to be a gay man in Paris in 1870? While researching my novel The Beasts of Paris, I couldn’t find much in 19th-century writing about homosexual love, and even later there are strangely few literary, queer, period-set love stories (shout outs to Sarah Waters and Mary Renault), so I’m pushing the boundaries of both ‘love story’ and ‘historical’ here.

Costa Book Awards 2017
It has enriched my leisure time by introducing me to a world of books which I would not have previously considered. Books of the month/debuts of the month, kids/adults, fiction/non-fiction, free prize draws and free extracts, what's not to love? What can I say, the clue is in the title Lovereading - and awesome books. I love Lovereading because I get to read great books and then get to tell everybody how good they are.
A Critic's Tally of 2017's Most Overlooked Books - Signature Reads
I’ve taken it for granted my entire life that we know what the earth looks like from space, but it rocks me back on my heels to realize that until the first Russian cosmonauts and American astronauts went into space, beginning in the late 1950s, no one had ever really seen it. Having grown up with such an advantage, it strikes me as an even more remarkable achievement that mapmakers were able to produce reasonable models of what comprised our globe.
Under a Pole Star
With an Indian Summer upon us, what could be more refreshing than a tale of Arctic exploration? Author Stef Penney set her first novel,THE TENDERNESS OF WOLVES,in the bleak frozen landscape of northern Canada and won the prestigious Costa Book of the Year award in 2006. With the fan on full blast, I began to read her third, UNDER A POLE STAR, shivering in happy anticipation of another voyage into the ice. The novel opens with a modern odyssey: the press junket.
Writing Sex Scenes Can Be a Feminist Act
Why is there explicit sex in my new book? Because I’m a feminist. Under A Pole Star, my third book, is a novel about late 19th century arctic explorers that features, alongside ice, ambition and rivalry, more than one sexual relationship. And there’s a lot of detail. My central characters fall in love, and yes, they have a lot of sex. I was nervous about how the passages would be received.
