Hello Library Friends,

We are hosting the New York Times bestselling author LaDarrion Williams at Main Library on Sunday, Oct. 19th and would love for you to join us and/or spread the word! You can register for the event on Eventbrite. Information about the program can be found below. Thank you!


Join us for a special author talk with LaDarrion Williams! The celebrated playwright, filmmaker, and New York Times bestselling author will be discussing his new novel, Bones at the Crossroads. This captivating work is the sequel to his unforgettable debut, Blood at the Root, which Kirkus Reviews hailed as "A story as magically cool as it is emotionally heated." In the highly anticipated sequel, the story of Malik, a young Black conjurer at a magical HBCU continues. Discover how Malik navigates new challenges and deepens his understanding of his powers and heritage in this fantasy saga that explores themes of community, history, and identity.
This is NOT a ticketed event, meaning seats are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Registration is highly encouraged to ensure you receive important updates about LaDarrion's visit.
Copies of LaDarrion's book will be available for purchase from 27th Letter Books. Questions? Email jkeeler@detroitpubliclibrary.org.
