In August, we have not one, not two, not three but FOUR author events for the Sci Fi/Fantasy-minded. Just set up a cot and move in for the month. The cafe has great tacos, you’ll like it. Can’t make it and think you might die? Here’s a salve: order a signed copy of the event book. We ship all over the whole wide world.
R. A. SALVATORE
speaking & signing Charon’s Claw
Salvatore’s books have sold an astounding 10,000,000+ copies. His fans are loyal and they are serious about their Salvatore love (we know this for a fact – some of those fanswork here). He’ll be here with the conclusion to his Neverwinter Saga, Charon’s Claw.
NEAL STEPHENSON speaking & signing Some Remarks: Essays
Reamde. Anathem. Cryptonomicon. Snow Crash. Yeah. We are just, um, a little bit stoked about this event. Stephenson will be here for his new collection of essays, Some Remarks, which covers everything from movies to David Foster Wallace to video games to all the awesome annals of Neal Stephenson’s brain.
THE INTERGALACTIC NEMESIS
performance & booksigning
Join author Jason Neulander and the cast of The Intergalactic Nemesis as they share stories about the creation of their incredible live action graphic novel project and perform snippets from the live theatrical production. Jason Neulander will sign copies of The Intergalactic Nemesis Book One: Target Earth and The Intergalactic Nemesis Book Two: Robot Planet Rising at this event.
TERRY BROOKS
speaking & signing Wards of Faerie: The Dark Legacy of Shannara
We have the Fantasy Heads of State with us this month – first Salvatore, then Terry (TERRY!) Brooks (BROOKS!) In other words, two of the biggest authors writing in the genre. Rocky Mountain News called Brooks, “the most important fantasy writer since J.R.R. Tolkien.” He’ll be here with Wards of Faerie: The Dark Legacy of Shannara, in which he revisits one of the most popular eras in his legendary The High Druids of Shannara trilogy.
