Book Signing with Jenni McDonnell

Saturday 31st October ~ 10.30 to 11.30am

Join us for a special local author event here in the Library. This is a book signing for Jenni McDonell’s first book for young adults: The Maegen.

The Maegen: The first in a series of 3. The series is called The Crossroads of Time. Willow’s dreams have returned, but they feel more like memories than dreams. Why is everything so familiar? Along with the dreams is a recurring nightmare showing the collapse of humanity, each time more terrifying than the last. Why is she being told it is her fault? Drawn into friendship with a pagan community, she learns about a world of magic, witches and the realm where the imaginations of every living being – past, present and future – meet. A realm called Dream She is told she is inextricably intwined with an ancient weapon forged at the birth of the Universe, The Maegen, a weapon a pagan called Herne will die to protect. When dark forces gather against her, Willow realises the nightmare is here, and she must make the biggest decision of her life.  
While The Maegen is her first foray into fiction writing, Jenni McDonnell has an extensive professional background in sustainability and clean energy technology. She serves as a leader in the clean energy sector and was awarded an MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire) for her services to green innovation.
