Pandas at FantasyCon
Thursday, September 27, 2012
This weekend brings a tide of geekery to the shores of Brighton for FantasyCon. It is our first time going. Fortunately, there will be a few dozen Pandemonium authors to help ease us into the event.
The authors (and where to find them) are below...
Friday:
- Marc Aplin (1853)1
- Joseph D'Lacey (Town)1
- Jonathan Green (Smoke, 1853)1
- Jon Courtenay Grimwood (Apocalypse, Lowest Heaven)2
- Will Hill (Town, Deakins Boys)1,2
- Lou Morgan (Apocalypse)1
- Jonathan Oliver (Apocalypse, Town)1
- Tom Pollock (Apocalypse)2
Plus Anne will be moderating a panel about awards (ooooh!) at 10.30 pm. She promises controversy.
Saturday:
- Marc Aplin (1853)3
- Jonathan Green (Smoke, 1853)1
- Will Hill (Town, Deakins Boys)1,3
- Kim Lakin-Smith (Apocalypse, Lowest Heaven)1
- Jonathan Oliver (Apocalypse, Town)2
- Adrian Tchaikovsky (Secret)1,2
Plus, Jared will be moderating a panel about steampunk at 5 pm. He promises to avoid controversy.
Sunday:
Many more of our authors will be on the scene, including Jenni Hill, Den Patrick, Esther Saxey, David Moore, Sophia McDougall and Ian Whates. Plus, Kim Lakin-Smith, Lavie Tidhar and Jonathan Oliver are all finalists for the British Fantasy Awards!
A limited edition of Lost Souls has been donated to the FantasyCon raffle (plus a poster from The Kitschies, signed by China Miéville, Patrick Ness and Lauren Beukes!). So, basically, we're unavoidable.
Vaguely professional note: we will not be selling books at the event. However, if you order a copy of Lost Souls by Thursday night, we can bring it to you in person. Plus a sticker or something.
We'll be pushing everyone to buy Apocalypse (only a month to go!) - plus, we may have some cool stuff in our pockets for A Town Called Pandemonium, Uncle Smoke and Thy Kingdom Come. Maybe.
(As always, the opportunity to pre-order our titles is offered to our mailing list first. Hint.)
