'The Noughts \u0026amp; Crosses series are still my favourite books of all time and showed me just how amazing story-telling could be' STORMZY 'Malorie's Noughts \u0026amp; Crosses series is the first time I saw myself in a book . . . they were pacey, exciting, rich. What Malorie Blackman has always done so brilliantly is put the minority front and centre, both in society and politics.' CANDICE CARTY-WILLIAMS 'The most original book I've ever read' BENJAMIN ZEPHANIAH \"Malorie Blackman is absolutely amazing ... [Noughts \u0026amp; Crosses] really spoke to me, especially as a woman of dual heritage.\" ZAWE ASHTON _____ 'Stop it! You're all behaving like animals! Worse than animals - like blankers!' Sephy is a Cross: she lives a life of privilege and power. But she's lonely, and burns with injustice at the world she sees around her. Callum is a nought: he's considered to be less than nothing - a blanker, there to serve Crosses - but he dreams of a better life. They've been friends since they were children, and they both know that's as far as it can ever go. Noughts and Crosses are fated to be bitter enemies - love is out of the question. Then - in spite of a world that is fiercely against them - these star-crossed lovers choose each other. But this is love story that will lead both of them into terrible danger . . . and which will have shocking repercussions for generations to come. Voted as one of the UK's best-loved books, Malorie Blackman's Noughts \u0026amp; Crosses is a seminal piece of YA fiction; a true modern classic.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAuthor: Blackman, Malorie,author\u003cbr\u003eContributors: Blackman, Malorie,author\u003cbr\u003eBinding: hardcover\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: \u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: \u003cbr\u003eLanguages: English,Published,English,Original Language\u003cbr\u003eFormat: special_edition\u003cbr\u003eEdition: Special Edition\u003cbr\u003ePublished\/Release Date: 19 Mar 2026\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003cbr\u003ePublisher\/Studio\/Brand: Penguin Random House Children's UK\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Director\/Artist: Malorie Blackman\u003cbr\u003eDimension (cm): 241x161x44 mm\u003cbr\u003ePackage Dimension (cm): 42x239x163 mm\u003cbr\u003eItem Weight (g): -1\u003cbr\u003ePackage Weight (g): 680","brand":"Penguin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53146239467817,"sku":"BK0241817730","price":79.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/5868\/0105\/files\/71-_MHRKplL_193138ca-96ce-4c03-8d90-068d7bf228f2.jpg?v=1784385381","url":"https:\/\/www.centloop.com\/en-au\/products\/noughts-crosses-25th-anniversary-special-edition","provider":"Centloop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
