Events

Highlands Ranch: D.J. MacHale, author of the New York Times bestselling Pendragon series for young readers, will read from and sign his new book The Light ($17.99 Simon & Schuster), the first book in his new Morpheus Road trilogy. Marshall Seaver is being haunted. In the first installment of this chillingly compelling trilogy, sixteen-year-old Marshall discovers that something beyond our world is after him. The eerie clues pile up quickly, and when people start dying, it’s clear whatever this is, it’s huge. Marshall has no idea what’s happening to him, but he’s soon convinced that it has something to do with his best friend Cooper, who’s been missing for over a week. Together with Coop’s sister, Marsh searches for the truth about what happened to his friend, ultimately uncovering something bigger than he could ever have imagined. Visit D. J. MacHale’s website.

The date and location for this event have changed. The event is now scheduled for Tuesday, May 18, at the Historic LoDo store. Colfax Avenue: Beautiful, bold, and bad, Pam Grier burst onto the movie scene in the 1970s, setting the screen on fire and forever changing the country’s view of African-American actresses. With a killer attitude and body to match, Grier became the ultimate fantasy of men everywhere. But she quickly proved that she was more than just a desirable film goddess. She had the brains, courage, and tenacity to sustain a career that would span more than 30 years. The Denver Film Society joins us in presenting Pam Grier as she discusses and signs her new memoir Foxy: My Life in Three Acts ($24.99 Grand Central), in which she chronicles the good, bad, and steamy highlights in her life and career. Free numbered tickets for the booksigning line will be handed out beginning at 6:30 pm. Seating for the presentation prior to the booksigning is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis to ticketed customers only. Request a signed copy: books@tatteredcover.com
