Come celebrate the publication of Lifel1k3 with New York Times bestselling author Jay Kristoff!

Join us as Jay Kristoff, co-author of the bestselling Illuminae Files, launches Lifel1k3 with the help of Garth Nix.

Lifel1k3 is the first book in a new series, set on a floating junkyard beneath a radiation sky. A deadly secret lies buried in the scrap.

Seventeen-year-old Eve isn’t looking for secrets – she’s too busy looking over her shoulder. The robot gladiator she’s just spent six months building has been reduced to a smoking wreck, she’s in five and a half feet deep with a local crime lord, and the only thing keeping her Grandpa from the grave was the fistful of credits she just lost to the bookies. Worst of all, she’s discovered she can somehow destroy electronics with the power of her mind, and the puritanical Brotherhood are building a coffin her size. Her discovery of a ruined android in the scrap pile she calls home will bring her corroding world crashing down and make her question whether everything in her life is a lie.

6.00pm for a 6.30pm start.
