Event Description
Three-time Aurora Award-winner Kate Heartfield joins Sophia Hannan and Rebecca Hirsch Garcia on stage with three remarkable fantasy novels. Heartfield’s 13th-century historical fantasy, Mercutio, is a poetic myth that explores love and loyalty under all the wrong stars. Hannan’s We Were Never Here, her debut novel, is “a slow-burn YA mystery steeped in Gothic atmosphere” according to one reviewer. O. Henry Prize-winner Rebecca Hirsch Garcia brings Other Evolutions, where the boundaries between reality and unreality are not just blurred, but shattered.
