Author of Slaves of the Shinar: An Epic Fantasy of the Ancient World (Overlook Press)

New York writer Justin Allen’s fantasy novel Slaves of the Shinar features no wizardry, imagined technology, or supernatural quests. Instead, it reimagines the ancient cultures of the Middle East and Africa through the story of two men, a slave and a thief, seeking freedom and profit in the midst of all-consuming war and constant fear of the gods. An advance copy of this first novel was snatched up on eBay weeks after its release; join us for an evening with rising star author Justin Allen and immerse yourself in a compelling other world.
