An Evening with Danielle L. Jensen

Danielle L. Jensen will be at Waterstones Leeds on Thursday 19 November, celebrating the release of her new book, Defy the Dusk. It's the first part of the Sundering Duet, a sweeping epic set in a world ravaged by nocturnal creatures, where redemption is sought by the woman whose magic brought them into being. If you're already familiar with her work, she also wrote A Curse Carved in Bone.

The evening runs for about two and a half hours, and it's more than just a quick hello. There's a 45-minute conversation with the author, followed by 15 minutes for audience questions, and then a signing. If you're planning to get books signed, keep in mind there's a maximum of three per person, and name dedications are only for copies of Defy the Dusk. Every copy of Defy the Dusk you buy also comes with an exclusive art print.

On the practical side, the event starts at 19:00, with doors opening from 18:45. You'll find Waterstones on Albion Street, Leeds LS1 5JS. There are two in-store bathrooms and a lift to the first and second floors. Tickets are £8 for general admission, or £25 if you go for the book and ticket option.
