The line-up has been released for next month’s Manx Litfest.
The literary festival, now in its third year, is growing – this year taking place over five days in September, rather than the previous four.
Between the 24th and 28th, bookworms will be heading to various venues across the Island, for events such as talks by award-winning authors and literary-themed ghost walks.
And award-winning authors such as crime author Mark Billingham will be visiting the Island to take part.
Festival director John Quirk explains one of the events he’s most looking forward to
