SUMMARY:An Evening with Anthony Horowitz
DESCRIPTION:‘Easily the greatest of our living crime writers’ – Sunday Times \n\n\n\nWhat a thrill to welcome the master of mystery (and writer of TV’s Midsomer Murders) Anthony Horowitz to Farsley\, for an introduction to his new\, unputdownable book in the bestselling Inspector Hawthorne series.  \n\n\n\nJoin the author for an evening of crime as he shares stories of his life as a writer and introduces his latest book\, A Deadly Episode. \n\n\n\nAbout the Author \n\n\n\nAnthony Horowitz has written over 50 acclaimed novels including the Magpie Murders\, Moonflower Murders\, the Detective Hawthorne series and the hugely popular teen spy Alex Rider series. He is also responsible for creating and writing some of the UK’s most loved and successful TV series\, including Midsomer Murders and Foyle’s War. In January 2022 he was awarded a CBE for his services to literature. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Book \n\n\n\nA Deadly Episode is a wild ride through a world that the author knows only too well\, and the most personal case Hawthorne has had to deal with so far. \n\n\n\nThe Word is Murder – the first book in the Hawthorne series\, is being made into a major feature film. The actors have been cast\, the script written\, and filming has already started in Hastings. \n\n\n\nBut when Hawthorne visits the set\, he finds a far from happy family. The director’s pretentious\, the screenwriter’s an eco-warrior\, the two stars hate each other\, and the producer has run out of money. \n\n\n\nAnd things are about to get much\, much worse. \n\n\n\nIn the middle of shooting\, the actor playing Hawthorne is stabbed – which leaves the real Hawthorne with no choice. He has to step in and investigate his own murder.  \n\n\n\nBut\, has the killer got the right man? Was it Hawthorne himself who was meant to be the target?

SUMMARY:Truman’s Book Club Social – Tues 28th April
DESCRIPTION:At Truman’s Book Club Social in April\, hosted at Cargo Wines here in Farsley\, we’ll be discussing the book Dogs of War by Adrian Tchaikovsky. \n\n\n\nA ticket to attend Truman’s Book Club Social is £18. This includes the book (which will be available for you to collect in the shop once you’ve made a booking online) and your first drink on the evening (beer\, wine or soft drink). If you already have the book\, you can select a ticket that will include a £10 Truman’s Gift Voucher instead of a book. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Book \n\n\n\n‘A bio-engineered dog fights for its life and its right to life. From the Arthur C. Clark Award-winning author of CHILDREN OF TIME. \n\n\n\nMy name is Rex. I am a good dog. Rex is also seven foot tall at the shoulder\, bulletproof\, bristling with heavy calibre weaponry and his voice resonates with subsonics especially designed to instil fear. \n\n\n\nWith Dragon\, Honey and Bees\, he’s part of a Multiform Assault Pack operating in the lawless anarchy of Campeche\, Mexico. A genetically engineered Bioform\, he’s a deadly weapon in a dirty war. All he wants to be is a Good Dog. \n\n\n\nAnd to do that he must do exactly what Master says and Master says he’s got to kill a lot of enemies. But who\, exactly\, are the enemies? What happens when Master is tried as a war criminal? What rights does the Geneva Convention grant weapons? Do Rex and his fellow Bioforms even have a right to exist? And what happens when Rex slips his leash? \n\n\n\n ‘Detailed and clever worldbuilding… Tchaikovsky pulls off an impressive feat in making Rex’s character evolution genuinely moving. Readers will be wowed’ – Publishers Weekly \n\n\n\nWhen & Where? \n\n\n\nThis Truman’s Book Club Social will take place on Tuesday 28th April\, 6.30pm (for a 7pm start)\, at Cargo Wines\, Sunny Bank Mills. One of the benefits of us hosting our Book Club in a Wine Bar means that when the book chat is done\, if you wish\, you’re free to stay on to continue to enjoy the company and the conversation\, and maybe another drink or two. \n\n\n\nWe’d like a relaxed evening of booky chat\, so if the thought of sitting round in a big circle feels a little intimidating\, this is the Book Club for you. Our aim is to have a more informal feel\, with smaller groups sat chatting around tables. We can help you find a seat and make sure everyone feels comfortable. \n\n\n\nWe’re thinking an hour of chat about the month’s book (and the topics and experiences it leads to). In the future\, we’d love to be able to welcome guest authors to join us to discuss their books. \n\n\n\nHope to see you there!
