We had the most magical surprise yesterday when Graci Kim popped into the shop and signed a huge stack of her latest fantasy adventure! ๐Ÿ’–

Royalslinger is the epic conclusion to her middle-grade Slinger duology, which is set in a magically altered Seoul. There's magic spells, spectacular creatures inspired by Korean mythology, and a beautifully imagined world where your dreams (and nightmares) can literally come to life!

Dreamslinger also just won the Junior Fiction category at the New Zealand Book Awards for Children and Young Adults. Huge congrats Graci Kim-Cribbens ๐ŸŽ‰
