Join us for an evening with middle-grade fantasy author Esme Symes-Smith! We’ll be talking about Sir Callie and the Champions of Helston and what it was like to create all of our favorite heroes (and villains)! Hear about what it was like to go from writing FanFiction to becoming a best-selling author, especially during the pandemic. They’ll also share a bit about how writing this book led to their own personal journey of discovery.

Esme will be signing books at the event. Choose the "Bundle" option to include book #1 with your ticket order.
Additional books may be available for purchase at the event.

About the author: Esme is a trans nonbinary middle-grade fantasy author originally from England who now lives in St. Louis, Missouri. Visit their website to find reviews of their books and learn more about their writing journey, or find them on Instagram to see what they’ve been up to.

A note from Esme ahead of their visit: Every reader is a hero on an adventure, and more than anything I love to hear about all the different quests my readers go on with my books! I can't wait to get nerdy about books and dragons and magic with y'all! And get thinking about your favorite Callie characters cos I'm taking a poll!
