Don't get depressed about summer coming to an end. Come out a listen to some great fiction instead with readings by Evan Munday, Linda Poitevin and Yves Meynard.

Yves Meynard was born in 1964, in the city of Québec, lived most of his life in Montreal and has recently moved to Ottawa. He has been active in Québec science fiction circles since 1986, serving as literary editor for the magazine Solaris from 1994 to 2001. He has published over thirty short stories in French and over a dozen in English. He is a multiple award winner, with several Boréal and Aurora Awards, along with the Grand Prix de la Science-Fiction et du Fantastique Québécois, Québec's highest award in the field. He has published sixteen books in French and three in English: The Book of Knights, a Mythopoeic Award finalist, the massive novel Chrysanthe and this volume. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Université de Montréal and earns a living as a software developer.

Evan Munday is the author and illustrator of Silver Birch-nominated Dead Kid Detective Agency series. The third book in the series, Loyalist to a Fault, debuts this September. He lives in Toronto, ON.

Linda Poitevin is a writer possessed of both a light side and a dark one. On the dark side, she's the author of the Grigori Legacy, an urban fantasy series featuring a hard-as-nails cop caught up in the war between Heaven and Hell. In her lighter moments, she writes the sweet and funny Ever After contemporary romance series. And when she's not plotting the world's downfall or next great love story, she's a wife, mom, friend, coffee snob, gardener, walker of a Giant Dog, minion to the Itty Bitty Kitty, and avid food preserver (you know, just in case that whole Zombie Apocalypse thing really happens).
