Join us for a literary reading with acclaimed science fiction and comic book writer, Saladin Ahmed. Ahmed will read from his work, which combines Muslim and sci-fi themes.
Saladin Ahmed is the author of the Hugo and Nebula-nominated "Throne of the Crescent Moon," praised by George RR Martin as "a rollicking swashbuckler." His essays, poetry, and fiction have appeared in The New York Times, Salon, the Boston Globe, Slate, NPR, and BuzzFeed. He is currently writing "Black Bolt" and "Exiles" for Marvel Comics and "Abbott" for BOOM! Studios.
