On My Radar: October

The leaves are starting to turn and the nights are drawing in, which must mean it’s time for a round up of October releases. Next month sees the ramp up of Christmas gift titles, so can sometimes be a little dry on things I want to read, but not this year!

Release dates do seem to be very changeable right now, so dates are only a guide, and those marked US only might be hard to get hold of in the UK.
