Award-winning author, Lex Croucher has an exciting brand new YA novel out today with Bloomsbury, titled Not for the Faint of Heart!
Filled with hijinks and heart-pounding moments, the historical fantasy follow the newly blooded grumpy captain of the Merry Men and granddaughter of Robin Hood, Mariel and perky Backwoods assistant healer who just wants to help people, Clem. Mariel’s ramshackle band kidnaps Clem as retribution for her guardian’s actions. When Mariel’s father is captured in a deadly ambush, she is determined to prove herself and sets out to get him back with her annoyingly cheerful kidnappee in tow. As the two slowly grow closer, one thing is clear – they must prepare for the fight of their lives.
Lex is a London based best-selling author who has won and have been nominated for several awards, including the recently acclaimed YA Book Prize shortlisting for Gwen & Art are Not In Love. They have also written the much loved regency novels, Reputation, Infamous and Trouble.
Not for the Faint of Heart will also be published in the US later in the year, on 26 November 2024 in hardback.
