Tonight sees the first BristolCon Fringe of 2017. We have two great authors lined up for you.

Amanda Huskisson is a writer of historical fantasy. She will be reading the opening chapter of her debut novel, Melody of the Two Lands. A story set in Ancient Egypt about two girls, one living and one deceased, whose lives are inextricably entwined.

Tej Turner is a writer of fantasy, horror and speculative fiction. His debut novel, The Janus Cycle, was published by Elsewhen Press in 2015, and he has also had several short stories featured in anthologies. For the event he will be reading an extract from his second novel, Dinnusos Rises, which is due to be published later this year.

As usual we’ll be at The Shakespeare Tavern, 68 Prince Street (round the back of the Arnolfini). I hope to see some of you there.
