Brought together for the first time since they were originally written, Roald Dahl’s short stories Fear, Innocence, Trickery and War reveals the darker side of one of Britain’s best-loved children’s authors.

From the spine-chilling stories of Fear to the semi-autobiographical War, the sinister collection of tales is sure to shake even the most steadfast of adult readers. The collection features cover illustrations from celebrated artist and friend of The Big Issue, Charming Baker.

We have five sets of the collection to give away. The lucky winner will receive the collection, signed by illustrator Charming Baker, with four runners-up grabbing a collection each.

To be in with a chance of winning, simply answer this question:
