The event is free to attend, with ample free parking.
Picture Katniss Everdeen crossed with Annie Oakley– that’s Serendipity ‘Pity’ Jones. She’s the heroine the new West needs, in an imagined future. The US has been fractured by a Second Civil War. Pity Jones finds a home of sorts in the corrupt, lawless city of Cessation. Her shooting skills make her a star of the Theater Vespertine, but there’s a grim side to the Theater that Pity’s about to discover. Gunslinger Girl provides rip-roaring action for ages 14 and up. This is a free event for all ages. Lyndsay will be doing a reading and taking questions, with a book signing to follow. Event details are at www.spellboundbookshop.com.
