Saturday Storytime & Author Signing with Ashleigh Harvey

Storytime 10am Join us for our weekly Saturday Storytime.Storytime will run for about 30 minutes and will be geared towards ages 3-6. Author Signing with Ashleigh Harvey at 3pm About Ashleigh: Ashleigh Harvey is striking out on her own! She cherishes the experience of publishing her first novel, The Immortal Game, with Macmillan, but she has too many stories in her head to wait for the industry to get them out to her readers. YA, adult, fantasy, sci-fi—she wants to write it all, and maybe even try some graphic novels! Though she holds a bachelor’s degree in science and spends her days teaching teenagers physics, her heart has always been with storytelling. Her writing appears in several literary magazines, and a few of her pieces have won awards. Always caught in a daydream, she feeds her muse through art, crafts, books, movies, Dungeons and Dragons, and, of course, comic-con cosplay. A world-traveling English native, she currently lives in Massachusetts with her husband, Ken, and their dog, Zuko. About Daemon Mark: The people of Elesta believe daemons are a blessing; the people of Rimmor think they’re a curse. Elestans absorb the nature spirits, gaining a mental companion and extra-human abilities. Any Rimmoran with a daemon is slaughtered. The resulting tension between nations was rising; now a disease that poisons nature and daemons alike is spreading, bringing the conflict to a boiling point. Three people have their own agendas, but the resulting paths could lead their respective kingdoms to victory or defeat. Khyro, a retired warrior-priest, seeks justice for the innocent caught in the Rimmoran king’s crusade. Czaela, a young woman with strange origins, seeks answers to the mysterious daemon which shares her body. Allai, one of the king’s Daemon Hunters, seeks a cure for his sister and others possessed by the daemon ‘parasites’. The threads of their fate tangle, twist, and turn in a journey of duty, deliverance, devotion, and belief in Daemon Mark—the first of a trilogy.
