Lift off!
After a successful 2022 it would be easy to rest on our laurels in 2023 but that certainly won't be the case! In fact, we have even bigger plans for this year than last! Especially for our export division which re-started business modestly last year after COVID problems eased and is now set to swing back into action. New books, new authors, HTML growth, innovative products and an unrivalled range of publishing services… it all starts with Ice Cold.
Moonlight in the Spotlight
Moonlight and the Pearler's Daughter by Lizzie Pook is a worldwide smash and ICP is delighted to be the official supplier of maps and artworks for this atmospheric book which has been picked as one of Stylist magazine's 'Fiction Books You Can't Miss in 2022'. Following its success in Australia, the UK and USA, the book is currently being translated for publication in France and Latvia later this year. Truly "one of those books you can't put down" Moonlight and the Pearler's Daughter will immerse you in the everyday life of Bannin Bay, Western Australia, in 1886 as the Brightwell family arrive from England to make their new home among the pearl fishers.
