LAUNCH | Tales of Dark Isle: Nell on Earth by Dave Rudden
This event has now passed.
We’re thrilled to launch, from the hilariously scary world of Conn of the Dead, Dave Rudden’s newest addition to Tales of Darkisle: Nell on Earth. Perfect for lovers of adventure, eldest siblings forced to babysit, other siblings who have ever been kidnapped by were-otters, or those who would just like to be prepared for such scenarios! Join us for what promises to be a frightfully good evening.
“Tales of Darkisle – my love letter to Goosebumps, Spooksville and all the other series I probably should not have been reading unsupervised at the age of eight” – Dave Rudden
All are welcome to attend, refreshments will be served.
