Virtual Author Visit: Charles Soule
Join us at 1 p.m. Saturday, July 15 for an online author visit with New York Times bestselling author Charles Soule. The mega-star comic book author talks about his newest novel, The Endless Vessel, which explores the way we’re all connected — and what can happen when we lose our capacity for joy.
The Endless Vessel transports us to a few years from now, in a world similar to ours, where there exists a sort of “depression plague” that people refer to simply as “The Grey.” No one can predict whom it will afflict or how, but once infected, there’s no coming back. A young Hong Kong-based scientist, Lily Barnes, is trying to maintain her inner light in an increasingly dark world when she comes across something that seems to be addressing her directly, calling to her, asking her to follow a path to whatever lies at its end. She leaves her life behind and sets out through time and space to discover what it is.
