Christopher Paolini
Only 10 days left until we throw open the gates of Dairy Meadows and welcome you all in.
In anticipation of all the jollity to come we’ve got books and tickets to giveaway here everyday right up until the festival. Each day will bring a new pair of star writers, and a new chance to win tickets to see them at Hay along with copies of their latest/biggest/most phenomenal books (full T&Cs below).
Today’s storming writers are Tony Robinson & Christopher Paolini.
Tony Robinson’s Weird World of Wonders is a fantastic new history series – our Scribblers couldn’t get enough of them when they arrived in the office! So to discover why you should never ignore an omen and how to defeat an army who are riding elephants make sure you check them out.
Christopher Paolini’s genuine love of fantasy and myth is unmistakable – his Inheritance cycle has taken him to the top of the best-seller charts and into the hearts of millions of fans. We’re thrilled that Hay is on Christopher’s world tour – make sure you don’t miss him!
