About the Event:

Join us for an unforgettable evening with Chicago’s own Veronica Roth, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Divergent series, as she discusses her new epic romantic dystopian fantasy, Seek the Traitor’s Son. The first book in Roth’s new series, this sweeping story follows the daughter of a bounty hunter, the knight sworn to protect her, and the prophecy that will ruin both of their lives. You won’t want to miss this conversation with one of the leaders of the dystopian genre as she shares insights into crafting this immersive new world.
