Serafina Event – Brevard

Join New York Times bestselling author Robert Beatty to celebrate the release of his new book, SERAFINA AND THE TWISTED STAFF, the highly anticipated sequel to last year’s runaway hit set at Biltmore Estate. Published by Disney Hyperion, this exciting mystery-thriller for young readers (8+) and adults follows the story of an unusual cat-like girl who lives at Biltmore Estate amidst the opulence of the Gilded Age and the rugged beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

THE 2016 SUMMER TOUR! This special event includes a presentation by the author, Q&A, free food & drink, a book signing, lots of Serafina giveaways, and the opportunity to meet the author and fans of Disney Hyperion’s newest book series.

This event is hosted by Highland Books (Brevard) and the Transylvania County Library.

Early praise from the prestigious Kirkus Reviews says SERAFINA AND THE TWISTED STAFF is “Even better than its predecessor, a sequel that delivers nonstop thrills from beginning to end.” (Starred Review) You can watch the exciting new book trailer here: http://bit.ly/1UovAES

Since its release last year, the first book, SERAFINA AND THE BLACK CLOAK, has been on the New York Times Best Sellers List for 20 weeks. It has also appeared on the best seller lists of Publisher’s Weekly, USA TODAY, Barnes & Noble, Amazon and independent bookstores. It was selected by the Southern Independent Booksellers Association as representing the “best in Southern literature,” and has won many honors on Goodreads.com. Recently, it was named as a finalist for the prestigious 2016 Pat Conroy Southern Book Prize. A fast favorite for teachers and students, the book is being taught in hundreds of classrooms across the nation and has appeared on summer reading and Battle of the Books lists.
