One of science fiction and fantasy’s most celebrated creators returns when Peter S. Beagle comes to Kepler’s with his thrilling new fantasy novel, Summerlong. The award-winning, bestselling author of The Last Unicorn has written dozens of books as well as nonfiction, short stories, poetry and screenplays, including produced screenplays for Ralph Bashki’s animated 1978 adaptation of “The Lord of the Rings” and the “Sarek” episode of “Star Trek: The Next Generation.”

Beagle’s most well-known novel, The Last Unicorn, has sold more than five million copies worldwide and been adapted as a stage production, an animated film and a graphic novel. The author’s first novel in more than a decade is Summerlong, a fascinating story about encroaching magic on Puget Sound that Kirkus Reviews calls, “A beautifully detailed fantasy about love, magic, and age.”

We hope you’ll join us for this marvelous celebration of one of America’s most gifted fantasy writers.
