September Book Club

  • Books on the Hill 1 Holywell Hill St Albans, England, AL1 1ER United Kingdom (map)

For September our booksellers were set the task of choosing a book with the theme of science. This was a tricky task and we debated many amazing fiction and non-fiction titles but have decided on Mountains of Fire by Clive Oppenheimer.

These book clubs will be held in the shop and are suitable for ages 16+ years.

To book your place, please visit in-store or click here.

About the book-

We are made of the same stuff as the breath and cinders of volcanoes. No matter where we live on the planet, they have shaped our history and might one day decide our destiny. World-famous volcanologist Clive Oppenheimer has worked at the crater's edge in the wildest places on Earth, close enough to feel the heat of the lava. In Mountains of Fire we join him on hair-singeing adventures from Italy to Antarctica to learn how deeply our stories are intertwined with volcanoes.
