28th July, 7:30pm - Antonia Hodgson in conversation with Georgia Summers, The Raven Scholar

Backstory, 71 Balham High Rd, SW12 9AP

Award winning author Antonia Hodgson (A Death At Fountains Abbey, The Silver Collar) will be delving into the world of epic fantasy novels and in particular, her first fantasy novel, The Raven Scholar, in a discussion with fellow author Georgia Summers (The Bookshop Below, City of Stardust)  

About the book:

Win the throne or destroy an empire. Either way, it begins with murder. After twenty-four years, the Emperor of Orrun's reign is at an end.

In the dizzying heat of mid-summer, seven exceptional warriors, trained at rival monasteries, will compete to replace him. Then one of them is murdered. It falls to the brilliant but idiosyncratic scholar Neema Kraa to investigate.

But as she hunts for a killer, darker forces are gathering . . .
