Join us for what promises to be an unmissable evening with bestselling author R.F. Kuang, as we celebrate the publication of her much-anticipated new novel, Katabasis.

The internationally bestselling author of Babel and Yellowface returns with Katabasis: a sublimely dark and unputdownable tale of two rival Cambridge academics who must join forces on a rescue mission in hell itself.

Rebecca will be in conversation with fellow fantasy author Samantha Shannon.

R.F. Kuang is now the author of six novels, with her debut novel The Poppy War written on her gap year in China and released in 2018. This was followed by The Dragon Republic (2019), The Burning God (2022), Babel (2022) and most recently Yellowface (2023).

Samantha Shannon is the million copy bestselling author of The Bone Season and The Roots of Chaos series. Her work has been translated into twenty-eight languages.

R.F. Kuang will be signing books after the talk. Please note that due to time constraints, Rebecca will be signing and/or dedicating one book per person (this can be any book by R.F. Kuang).

The Signed Book & Ticket bundle includes the Signed Exclusive Edition of Katabasis, for collection on the evening.
