Jonathan Ball Publishers and Exclusive Books invite you to the launch of The First King by Shameez Patel Papathanasiou!

Shameez Patel Papathanasiou was born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa. She is a civil engineer by day, fantasy author by night and a choc-chip cookie fiend somewhere in between. Her literary adventures take her to new worlds filled with magic, monsters and someone to fall in love with.

The First King is the conclusion to South African-born author’s stunning Selene Trilogy of novels.

The author will be in conversation with Kelly Commaille at the launch.

About the book

Lucas returns to the Selene realm only to find its been set alight. The king has declared war and is searching for them, especially his prized Healer who has escaped with his traitorous son.

But Cassia and Lochlan are still trapped in Vineas and Lucas has no way of getting to them. Armed with something as easily changed as a vision of the future, Lucas has to place his faith in the people around him and call out the uncontrollable First magic lurking inside him.

He will be the one to kill the king. He will end this. Now.
