R.F. Kuang is also appearing in An Evening with R.F. Kuang on Saturday 23 May.

International sensation R.F. Kuang is no stranger to the highs of literary stardom with her string of bestselling books – the Poppy War trilogy, Yellowface and Babel: An Arcane History.

But her newest fantasy epic, Katabasis, takes a drastic turn, straight to hell. Inspired by the Ancient Greek tradition of the hero journeying into the underworld, Katabasis is a mythical, fantastical romp full of magic, philosophy and a touch of romance.

Join Nebula and British Book Award winner R.F. as she discusses her legendary literary career with Michaela Kalowski.
Writing is the closest thing we have to real magic.
