Maurice Africh Celebrates Cello’s Gate (Virtual, with Mysterious Galaxy)
Mysterious Galaxy hosts Asheville author Maurice Africh online to celebrate the release of his debut novel, Cello’s Gate, out November 3 from Saga Press. With a wit to rival Dungeon Crawler Carl and the scope of Gideon the Ninth, Cello’s Gate follows Captain Grey and his crew of sky pirates on the hunt for mythic treasure. Publishers Weekly gave it a starred review, calling it “un-put-downable.”
The event is a 40-minute conversation followed by a 15-minute Q&A with the audience, streamed live on Crowdcast. Watch from anywhere. Registration is free at the link.
