Sin Bin Island (pre-order)

Publishes 11th September 2025

When Jack Digby is sent to Cyril Sniggs’s Correctional Orphanage for Wayward Boys and Girls, he doesn’t expect lessons in how to fire cannons and fend off pirate attacks. But perhaps he should, as the school, some say, was founded by a pirate.

Even stranger, at the end of each year, the four worst-behaved pupils are banished to the terrifying Sin Bin Island, where they must survive for a week. Legend has it, the island was once used to smuggle magic onto the mainland, but in over 300 years the magic has never returned.

Until now . . .

Don’t miss this highly anticipated first children’s novel from co-creator of legendary TV series Red Dwarf – with more to come!

‘Insanely funny and inventive – get yourself a ringside seat for this cartwheeling, high-wire, fire-breathing circus of a book.’ Frank Cottrell-Boyce

‘Doug Naylor has always been a master storyteller and this might just be his most intriguing adventure yet . . . A genius writer, and a perfect book!’ Jamie Smart, creator of Bunny vs Monkey

‘Totally brilliant. Exciting. Heart-stopping. Hilarious. And touching too. It’s the book I always wanted to read as a kid but could never find. It’s the new Harry Potter. I want a part in the movie franchise!!’ Craig Charles
