About this Event

We're thrilled to have Katja Kaine and Sarah Brooks joining us on the 2nd of July to launch Kaine's debut YA book, Blood of Gods and Girls!

A fierce feminist fantasy romance for fans of For She is Wrath, We Hunt the Flame, The Gilded Ones and Children of Blood and Bone.

When she bleeds, the Kingdom falls.

At five years old, Nisha was selected to be the Mortal Goddess – a vessel for the great Goddess Shantavi. But on her twelfth birthday, Nisha escaped the temple before she could be sacrificed at the hands of the Immortal King.

Now the Kingdom searches for its new Mortal Goddess and their eye has fallen on Ratna, the only family Nisha has left.

Helped by a Golden Eagle Warrior and the only boy she has ever loved, Nisha must learn to embrace her power in order to liberate her people.

It’s time to take the Kingdom back.
About the author:

Katja Kaine is a Yorkshire-based writer of fantasy novels. She is also the creator of the Novel Factory software for writers and the Novel Writing Roadmap. Katja is half Singaporean and half German and when she's not writing can be found cooing over forest fungi, bending into pretzel yoga shapes and raging against the patriarchy.

This event will consist of 45 minutes of conversation between Katja Kaine and Sarah Brooks, followed by 15 minutes of audience questions and then a signing.
