Bridge of Storms , the sequel to Thunder City , will be published in the UK and US in February 2026, and once again Ian McQue has done us proud with some striking cover art... It should be possible to pre-order Bridge of Storms now from your local bookshop or online, so please do... Shops that have a few advance customer orders for the book are more likely to take a few copies for stock too, so it really helps to get the word out that, among next year's avalanche of new titles, there lurks a brand new Mortal Engines story. 2026 will also be the 25th anniversary of Mortal Engines , so I expect I'll be banging on about it quite a bit over the coming months.
Reviews and ruminations by Philip Reeve, author of the Mortal Engines series, the Railhead trilogy, Here Lies Arthur, Goblins, and The Legend of Kevin, Pugs of the Frozen North, etc, with Sarah McIntyre.
