Romantasy Book Club (January): The Empress by Kristin Cast
Advertisement
Our semi-monthly Romantasy book club features reads that are steamy, dreamy, and adventurous! This club is for readers who love epic fantasy worlds and swoon-worthy love stories: thinks fierce heroines, morally gray love interests, slow burns, and high stakes.
This book club meets semi-monthly at the shop– in January, March, May, July, September, and November, to be exact-- to discuss our reading selection, sharing perspectives and conversation around the book and its themes.
For the month of January, we are reading "The Empress" by Kristin Cast.
Hannah is a modern-day Chicago woman whose life is upended by a tarot reading that transports her to the magical, tarot-infused world of Towerfall. There, she meets the brooding warrior Kane, who claims she's the key to saving his realm from ruin, forcing her into a fake marriage and a dangerous quest where she must embrace her own hidden magic to survive and find her way home. The first book in the Towerfall series, "The Empress" blends modern life with fantastical, tarot-inspired adventure, steamy romance, and courtly intrigue.
THE EMPRESS is currently on its way to us at the shop. We'll be sure to make an update post here to let you know when you can pick up your copy in store (should be by the end of the week, hopefully!).
Can’t wait to get started? Shop with us online to ship right to your doorstep: https://bookshop.org/a/118132/9781464235016
Prefer an audiobook? Shop our audiobook version here: https://libro.fm/audiobooks/9781039498761-the-empress?bookstore=thedogearedpageean=9780593798430&next=t
This is a FREE event, but we do encourage you to purchase the book from us, whether in person, online, or via our audiobook platform to help support the shop and our programming.
We look forward to seeing everyone on the 31st!
