An evening with Ryan Graudin

Join us for a special, after-hours celebration at The Archive as we welcome award-winning author Ryan Graudin for the release of her newest novel, Bright and Broken Things.

Settle in for an unforgettable evening as Ryan discusses her latest work — a sweeping, magical tale set against the glittering backdrop of 1920s London and the mystery-laden sands of Egypt. In Bright and Broken Things, a haunted young scholar finds himself at the center of a dangerous race to uncover an ancient artifact coveted by a secret society of magicians. With dazzling parties, hidden magic, and high-stakes adventure, this story is as enchanting as it is thrilling.

Ryan Graudin is the award-winning author of numerous novels, including the Carnegie-nominated Wolf by Wolf duology, The Enchanted Lies of Céleste Artois, and The Girl Who Kept the Castle series. Her books have been translated into over a dozen languages. She lives near Charleston, South Carolina, with her husband and two daughters.

Join us for an evening of conversation, storytelling, and a behind-the-scenes look at the magic behind the book.
