New York Times-bestselling author duo join forces to discuss their latest tale – a YA medieval romp brimming with treachery, swordplay and excellent snacks.
In their latest collaboration, much touted authors Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner take readers on a wild ride through their sapphic romance, Lady’s Knight.
Gwen is tired of hiding – whether it’s her secret role as her father’s blacksmith, her attraction to girls or her desire to become a knight. Lady Isobelle, on the other hand, has never had to hide who she is – until she becomes the grand prize in the Tournament of Dragonslayers. When their paths collide, the two hatch a daring plan: Gwen will joust in the tournament, disguised as ‘Sir Gawain’, with victory bringing freedom for Isobelle – and glory for Gwen.
CS Pacat joins Kaufman and Spooner for a lively conversation about the making of their latest book, in which the best-laid plans are at high risk of being trampled by dragons.
Presented in partnership with Melbourne Writers Festival
