Move over Merlin! The only wizardry here is the ease with which our presenters weave a touch of the spiritual, supernatural and mythical into their stories. Grounded in historical period, the foibles of average characters, the passage of generations, and the fundamental search for something better; these novels employ otherworldly elements to expand and challenge our notions of what we know and what we think we know. You don’t need to be a fantasy-lover to fall for the mystery and allure of what a little magic can bring to a novel.

Presenters: Sarah Penner, Julia Phillips, J. Courtney Sullivan
