Great British Bump-Off Signing With John Allison

John Allison and Max Sarin, the team behind the award-winning Giant Days series, return for a new adventure! To celebrate the collected edition of The Great British Bump-Off, we're welcoming John Allison to the shop on Saturday 9th December 2023, from 1-2pm.

The Great British Bump-Off presents us a rather unique premise, a murder mystery taking place on the set of a TV baking competition! John Allison (Bad Machinery, Giant Days) mixes together the perfect amount of thoughtful and earnest character along with his side-splittingly funny humour. Complete with the charismatic artwork of Max Sarin to create a recipe you'll be wanting to tell everyone about. Here's some words about The Great British Bump-Off from publisher Dark Horse

BREAD OF THE DEAD!

An Agatha Christie-style murder mystery set in the world of English competitive baking from Giant Days' John Allison and Max Sarin.

When she enters her countrys most beloved baking competition, Shauna Wickles goal is to delight the judges, charm the nation, and make a few friends along the way. But when a fellow contestant is poisoned, it falls to her to apprehend the culprit while avoiding premature elimination from the UK Bakery Tent . . . and being the poisoners next victim!

Drop by on Saturday 9th December, from 1pm to meet John and get a copy of The Great British Bump-Off. Our copies even come with a very special bookplate complete a baking recipe for you to try! You can pre-order the signed bookplate edition for mail-order or collection from our website by clicking the link here.
