The New York Times bestselling author of Uprooted and Spinning Silver will discuss her new novel with Northshire Event Manager Rachel Person. A Deadly Education is the story of an unwilling dark sorceress destined to rewrite the rules of magic.

"A powerful young sorceress trying desperately not to turn evil is trapped inside a magical boarding school that would very much like to kill her. The darkness and humor in this riveting page turner are shockingly timely. Naomi Novik's writing is always full of surprises - and both fans and those new to her work will be swept away in this opening book of a planned trilogy." - Northshire Event Manager Rachel Person
