A Meeting with Naomi Novik
Come meet Galadriel “El” Higgins who is attending the Scholomance. a school for teenage magicians, a “survival school” without teachers, without friends, a ring from which only a few manage to make it out alive. Will El be able to demonstrate and harness her powers, and eventually graduate from this terrible school keeping her soul intact? Through a work of fiction that is appealing even to adult readers, Novik is kneading her ingredients without age-specific concessions.
The event will take place online via Zoom and is designed for teens and young adults aged 12 or older.
Admission is free and open to all; registration is required.
The Greek translation of the Scholomance trilogy is available from Metaichmio Publications.
