Event Details

Adults 21+ are welcome to join us in at Burnt Barrel Social, 799 Heartland in Sugar Grove, for a beverage and a discussion of a fantasy/science fiction/speculative title. (Available one month prior at the Circulation Desk.) 

Foundation: In this chronicle of the early history of Valdemar (Mercedes Lackey's Collegium #1), a thirteen-year-old orphan named Magpie escapes a life of slavery in the gem mines when he is chosen by one of the magical Companion horses of Valdemar to be trained as a Herald. Thrust into the center of a legend in the making, Magpie discovers talents he never knew he had--and witnesses the founding of the great Heralds' Collegium.
