Event Details

Here we go reading again!

This is an adult book club with the aim of being open and accessible to everyone, and to read as many sci-fi & fantasy works from diverse authors as we can.

This month, we're diving into Redemption in Indigo by Karen Lord.

"Paama's husband is a fool and a glutton. Bad enough that he followed her to her parents' home in the village of Makendha, now he's disgraced himself by murdering livestock and stealing corn. When Paama leaves him for good, she attracts the attention of the undying ones – the djombi – who present her with a gift: the Chaos Stick, which allows her to manipulate the subtle forces of the world.

Unfortunately, not all the djombi are happy about this gift: the Indigo Lord believes this power should be his and his alone, and he sets about trying to persuade Paama to return the Chaos Stick.

Chaos is about to reign supreme..."
