In Veneno Veritas: London Book Launch & Author Evening

Step into a world of poison, dangerous fae bargains and dark-academia secrets for the London launch of In Veneno Veritas, the first acquired lead title from independent traditional micro-publisher Willows & Wood Publishing.

Join debut author Tori Langill and book content creator Meg the Book Goblin at Toynbee Hall for an evening celebrating this adult gothic fantasy, featuring a poisonous-but-immune heroine, a sinister academy, an unwanted marriage and a M**der accusation.

Hosted by Booktok creator Meg The Book Goblin, the evening will include an author conversation, an exclusive reading, audience Q&A, book signing, photographs and the opportunity to purchase In Veneno Veritas in paperback, hardback and Special Edition, alongside The Hollow Luna by C.

• The email address used for your Eventbrite booking

VIP tickets already include one paperback copy of In Veneno Veritas. VIP guests only need to pre-order if they would like additional copies, another edition or other Willows & Wood titles.
