Join us for an evening with Jay McGuiness, best known as a vocalist in the boyband The Wanted and winner of Strictly Come Dancing, as he discusses his latest fantasy novel, Poison Tides the sequel to his debut hit Blood Flowers. Now forging a powerful path in writing, Jay’s dystopian fantasy explores identity, power, and belonging through the journey of Bear, a small-town boy navigating a world that is as treacherous as it is transformative.
In conversation with Coco Omer, a dynamic cultural commentator and creator behind The Cult of Coco, known for championing stories across books, film, and TV, expect a lively, insightful discussion full of energy and humour.
There will be a post-event meet and greet with Jay McGuiness, where he’ll be signing copies of Blood Flowers and Poison Tides. Please note that due to time constraints, Jay McGuiness will only be able to sign books purchased at the festival.
