Seven
years ago, eight young adult authors joined forces to create the Edge – a group
of UK-based authors writing sharp fiction for young adults and teens. Together
we hosted events, visited schools, shared our love for books and writing via
our blog, and even created an anthology together.
When
we created the Edge most of us were newly published writers with only one book
with our name on the spine. Now we have more than 50 books published around the
world. We have decided it’s time to bid a fond farewell to the Edge. Thanks to
all of you who have supported us, invited us into your schools and libraries,
and engaged us in discussion. We won’t be updating our website or actively
seeking speaking engagements together, but the resources on the website will
remain.

the perils of online chat rooms, doping in sport, racism and terrorism, to

created discussion guides for each story in the anthology. You can download them for free here.
