Author Event: Seanan McGuire
Sunday, March 14 at 2:00 pm
Science fiction writer
Seanan McGuire will read from Rosemary and Rue: An October Daye Novel. October "Toby" Daye, a changeling who is half human and half fae, has been an outsider from birth. After getting burned by both sides of her heritage, Toby has denied the Faerie world, retreating to a "normal" life. Well researched, sharply told, highly atmospheric and as action-packed as any pulp detective tale, this promising start to a new urban fantasy series is sure to appeal.
Author Event: Jo Nesbø
Saturday, March 20 at 2:00 pm
The international sensation
Jo Nesbø will read from his latest book, Nemesis, which Publisher's Weekly lists as one of the Best Books of 2009. With his eight internationally acclaimed crime novels featuring Detective Harry Hole, Jo Nesbø has achieved an unparalleled success both in his native country Norway and abroad, winning the hearts of critics, booksellers and readers alike. Translated into thirty languages, awarded a whole range of awards and boasting record-breaking sales, Nesbř has been lavishly praised by international critics for broadening the scope of the contemporary crime novel, and is today regarded as one of Europe's most important crime writers.
