Serafina Holiday Book Signing

This year, give the readers on your holiday list something uniquely Asheville: A personalized autographed copy of the #1 New York Times Best Selling book series set at Biltmore Estate and in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Join Asheville author Robert Beatty as he personalizes copies of SERAFINA AND THE BLACK CLOAK and SERAFINA AND THE TWISTED STAFF – the first two titles in his exciting new series from Disney-Hyperion.

This special event is a great opportunity to drop by the store and purchase a unique gift for the readers in your life, or to have the Serafina books you already own signed and personalized. The afternoon begins with an author presentation and Q&A, followed by the book signing. Drop by anytime between 2-5 p.m. There will be free refreshments and Serafina giveaways throughout the event.

Adults and young readers (boys and girls, ages 8-14) are loving these spooky, Southern gothic mystery-thrillers about a brave and unusual girl who lives secretly in the basement of the grand Biltmore Estate. The first book in the series recently won the prestigious 2016 Pat Conroy Southern Book Prize for representing “the best in Southern literature.” A blend of history, mystery, and magic, the series is already being taught in over a thousand classrooms nationwide. The third book in the series comes out in July next year.

If you haven’t already, be sure to watch the 2-minute book trailers:
