Sacrifice and Rebellion: Claire Mabey and Rachael King

Two new novels for young people take readers into imaginary worlds where tyranny holds an iron grip. Claire Mabey's The Raven's Eye Rebellion returns her fans to the medieval world of Wyle, where reading and writing are forbidden. Rachael King's folk horror fantasy Song of the Saltings unfolds on the isolated isle of Brack, where a creature that haunts the salt marshes demands an annual sacrifice. Join these two beloved authors in conversation with Elizabeth Knox, as they discuss these stories of courage and resistance.
