Overview
The complete Noughts & Crosses collection brings together all six novels in Malorie Blackman's ground-breaking dystopian saga in one paperback set. Following Sephy and Callum across a divided Britain where power and prejudice run deep, this series has become a modern classic of young adult fiction. Perfect for teen readers, book clubs, classrooms and gift-buyers, this set delivers gripping storytelling alongside powerful themes of race, identity, love and justice that resonate with readers of all ages.
About the Books
Noughts & Crosses introduces a world turned upside down, where Sephy, a privileged Cross, and Callum, a marginalised Nought, forge a forbidden bond that challenges everything their divided society stands for. Knife Edge deepens the tension as shifting loyalties and rising stakes push both families toward tragedy. Checkmate leaps sixteen years forward, following Sephy and Callum's daughter Callie Rose as she grapples with the legacy of hatred and hope left behind by her parents' choices. Double Cross and Crossfire widen the story's scope with new characters like Tobey, caught between wanting safety for his family and the pull of dangerous temptations, delivering pacey, emotionally rich narratives that keep the series' social commentary front and centre. Endgame closes the saga on a political high note, as the first Nought Prime Minister stands trial for murder, and every witness carries a secret worth uncovering. Across all six books, Blackman uses a reimagined Britain to explore racism, class and power with unflinching honesty, cementing the series as essential reading for teens navigating questions of identity and justice in the real world.
