Event Description
The masters, myths and magic that keep readers hooked
Fantasy is fiction at its escapist best.
Imagining new worlds, memorable characters and compelling plots, fantasy writers are the extreme jugglers of the writing craft. In this panel discussion, hear from three of the biggest names in fantasy for adults and young adults alike. Lev Grossman, author of The Bright Sword and the hit Magicians trilogy, international sensation and author of The Poppy War trilogy, Babel and Katabasis R.F. Kuang and Garth Nix, bestselling author of the Old Kingdom series, share their enthusiasm for the genre and its devoted readership.
Hear Lev, R.F. and Garth in conversation with Carody Culver.
