Bestselling author and fantasy fan-favourite Joe Abercrombie joins us to sign copies of The Devils.
About this Event

We are delighted to welcome fantasy fan-favourite Joe Abercrombie to Deansgate, signing copies of his latest book The Devils.

The bestselling author of the First Law series unleashes a brilliantly inventive and witty fantasy yarn, involving bloodthirsty elves, a congregation of monsters and a plot to place a thief on the throne of Troy.

This is a ticketed event. Each booked ticket includes a paperback copy of The Devils to collect at the event. In addition, Joe will sign a further two books from home.

Please be prepared to queue, and if you need to, make sure you bring plenty of water and snacks in case you are queuing for a long time. We advise those with accessibility requirements to get in touch with us in advance by emailing [email protected], to let us know how we can support your visit.
