An incredible line-up here, not only announcing the Thursday morning panel but authors appearing at the Expo with new books. Malcolm Gladwell, one of the greatest non-fiction essayists of our time with books such Outliers and What The Dog Saw returns with Talking to Strangers (his last book was 2013’s David & Goliath); Ta-Nehsi Coates, who gained new fame as the writer of Marvel Comic’s Black Panther after a best selling memoir, has written his first full length fictional novel with fantasy elements in The Water Dancer; Marjorie Liu won one of the most prestigious awards in comics, an Eisner last year, no new novels have been announced, so this might be a debut or more promotion of her comic Monstress; Karin Slaughter will be at the show presenting the latest in crime thriller Will Trent series, with The Last Widow, the 9th in the series; and Rachael Maddow, the amazing television news woman shall host the breakfast, but hopefully will also be there to promote her second ever book since 2013’s Drift.
Just amazing announcements here for the Expo and things to look forward too.
