Will Banquo’s Son Achieve His Birthright?

Will Banquo’s Son Achieve His Birthright?

Last in Trilogy to be Launched at City Library

Dunedin (Monday, 11 November 2013) – The long-awaited third instalment of the Banquo trilogy will be launched next week.

Birthright will be launched at the Dunedin City Library at 6pm on Tuesday, 19 November. The release of TK (Tania) Roxborogh’s sequel to Banquo’s Son and Bloodlines will be a joy to young adult readers who have been eagerly awaiting news of the fate of Fleance, a young man caught up in the terrible aftermath of the tragic reign of Macbeth.

Tania Roxborogh lives in Dunedin and teaches at Columba College, when not writing fiction, so understands her readers well. Indeed, her students are among her most ardent fans.

After a remarkable debut at number three on the bestsellers list, the first in the series, Banquo’s Son, was shortlisted for the Young Adult section of the New Zealand Post Children's Book Awards. The book was also awarded a Notable Book Award by the Storylines Children's Literature Foundation and won the inaugural Young Adult section of the 2010 LIANZA awards. The second in the trilogy, Bloodlines, was published in 2010, so it has been “a long time between drinks” as Tania puts it. Readers who have been on tenterhooks for three years don’t have long to wait now.

Copies of Birthright will be available to purchase during the evening, courtesy of PaperPlus (EFTPOS available).
