Essinger unveils new novel at Findlay book reading
7:00 p.m. on October 21, Gardner Fine Arts Pavillion on University of Findlay campus
Bluffton author Dave Essinger has published a second novel, This World and the Next, now available from Main Street Rag Publishing Company. A reading and book signing are scheduled for October 21 in Findlay.
About the novel: "This post-apocalyptic thriller features an all-star greatest-hits list of conspiracy theories, as teenage Air Force brat Rosa and her snarky BFF Hannah, along with her obnoxious little brother and some idiot jocks from the football team, are left to rebuild society and find out what went wrong in a coming-of-age story for the end of the world."
All are invited to a free reading and book signing in Findlay on October 21 at 7:00 p.m. There will also be a reading and signing at the Bluffton Public Library, with the date to be determined.
