Lion's Tooth hosts Milwaukee author Rebecca Anne Nguyen for the launch of her debut novel, The 23rd Hero, winner of the 2024 Readers' Choice Award for Best Adult Novel (Bronze). Join us for a reading, book signing, and author Q&A (plus champagne and treats!)“Rebecca Anne Nguyen is so fierce, funny, rollicking, racy, unsparingly insightful about our talent for making a mess of things and irrepressibly optimistic about our chances for fixing them that she makes us eager to follow her anywhere, whether to times past or futures newly imagined. The 23rd Hero is a page-turning, wild and marvelous ride.”
— Susan Choi, Pulitzer Prize finalist, National Book Award Winner and author of Trust Exercise
ABOUT THE BOOK
On the verge of being forced to live in an underground bunker due to climate crisis, an ordinary woman with an extraordinary memory is recruited for a time travel program to stop environmental disasters before they happen. But when she falls in love with the program's mysterious founder, she must learn to believe in herself and her abilities before she's sent to sixteenth century France with no way to save the world or return to the man she loves.
