Join us for a special author talk with LaDarrion Williams! The celebrated playwright, filmmaker, and New York Times bestselling author will be discussing his new novel, Bones at the Crossroads. This captivating work is the sequel to his unforgettable debut, Blood at the Root, which Kirkus Reviews hailed as “A story as magically cool as it is emotionally heated.” In the highly anticipated sequel, the story of Malik, a young Black conjurer at a magical HBCU continues. Discover how Malik navigates new challenges and deepens his understanding of his powers and heritage in this fantasy saga that explores themes of community, history, and identity.
