Join Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author Laini Taylor as she presents the UK debut of The Guardians of Dreamdark: Windwitch, the first in a magical fantasy duology that started it all-available in Britain for the first time since its original 2007 publication.
For centuries faeries have lived safely in their ancient forests, but now their peace is under threat. Devils are escaping the prisons that have held them since the Dawn Days, and only one faerie stands in their way. Magpie Windwitch is the greatest-the only-devil-hunter of the Age.
When the hunt leads her to the legendary forest of Dreamdark, Magpie finds herself outmatched. Facing the greatest foe her kind has ever known, one thing's for sure: If she's to save the world, she'll need all the help she can get.
National Book Award finalist and Printz Honor recipient, Laini has sold over a million copies in the UK alone through her acclaimed Daughter of Smoke and Bone series and Strange the Dreamer duology. Now readers can discover the very first books she wrote-rich, complex fantasy filled with courageous faeries, bright magic, and unimagined danger.
In conversation with bestselling novelist, Kiran Millwood Hargrave, join us for an evening celebrating the world-building mastery that established Laini as one of fantasy's most beloved voices. Together they'll discuss returning to her earliest work, the evolution of her writing, and creating immersive fantasy that spans all ages.
Don't miss out, the first 50 book and ticket orders will receive a signed edition of The Guardians of Dreamdark: Windwitch. From the youngest YA readers to adult fantasy enthusiasts, this adored duology promises magic for everyone.
