March Events

 

patrick_ness PATRICK NESS 

Chaos Walking Trilogy: 

The Knife of Never Letting Go & 

The Ask and the Answer 

THE ONLY SYDNEY EVENT: 

TUESDAY March 9, 6.00pm 

Venue: Sydney University 

knife Mango, Kate, Han and Karen have bitten their fingernails down to the quick awaiting the final installment in this astounding series. The Knife of Never Letting Go was sold to us as a young adult book but we were all engrossed in this highly original story making it one of the Staff Favourites for 2009.  A really fresh voice and a plot line that will leave you gasping for breath. 

We recommend you have the second book, The Ask and the Answer, ready and waiting right beside you as you reach the end of book one. Hide yourself away so you will not be disturbed because, trust us, you will have to  continueask_and  reading straight through. Book three, Monsters of Men will be published later this year and we can hardly wait to meet Patrick in the flesh. (We hear he is utterly charming). 

 

This is a free event but seats are strictly limited so you will need to book a ticket.  You can do this by emailing:marketingwba@walkerbooks.com.au directly.
