Fountain Bookstore, Inc. 1307 E Cary St Richmond, VA 23219

Calling all monster romance lovers! We are thrilled to have Roxy Taylor coming by to talk about her fantastical and sexy debut, Claimed By The Orc King. She will be discussing all things romantasy with Fountain Fave Author Sara Raasch!
About the Book:
A fated mates monster romance featuring an orc king, a portal to a brutal fantasy realm, and a heroine who refuses to kneel.
This beautiful trade paperback edition features a deluxe jacket with silver foil on the front and a full-color interior illustration.
Thena came to FantastiCon to survive the weekend with minimal human interaction and maximum sarcasm. She didn’t plan on catching the attention of a seven-foot orc painted in war green—or the way her pulse stutters when he looks at her like she’s already his.
Viggo Klausson isn’t a cosplayer. He’s the High Chieftain of the Eastern Orcs, stranded in the human world while searching for the mate fate promised him. The moment he scents Thena, the bond snaps tight.
Then a portal drags her into Korule—a fractured kingdom where women are rare, power is carved in blood, and claiming a mate can start a war.
Thena refuses to become anyone’s prize. An ancient magic awakens inside her, and suddenly she’s not just the king’s fated mate.
She’s dangerous.
Viggo may be steady. He may be patient. But when enemies circle, he does not hesitate to bare his teeth.
He found his mate.
Now he has to earn her.
Perfect for readers who love:
• Fated mates
• Orc kings
• Strong, sharp-tongued heroines
• Political court intrigue
• Portal fantasy romance
• “Touch her and die” energy
About the Author:
Roxy Taylor is a GenX Amazon writing romantasy that refuses to behave. She writes about women who never fold themselves smaller, and the men or monsters caught between worshiping them and surviving them. Fueled by a lifelong love of ‘80s films, she writes for women who remember adventure and refuse to settle for less.
About the Moderator:
Sara Raasch has known she was destined for bookish things since the age of five, when her friends had a lemonade stand and she tagged along to sell her hand-drawn picture books too. Not much has changed since then — her friends still cock concerned eyebrows when she attempts to draw things and her enthusiasm for the written word still drives her to extreme measures.
She is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of multiple books for teens, including the historical romantasy duology WITCH AND HUNTER, cowritten with Beth Revis; as well as romances for adults, such as THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE KISSMAS and THE ENTANGLEMENT OF RIVAL WIZARDS.
​​None of her books feature her hand-drawn pictures.

We love a locked-room mystery, and we love hosting Tara! She'll be chatting at the store with LynDee Walker about all things twisty.
About the Book:
They're there to make a sequel. But someone came for revenge.
A decade ago, the release of the horror film No One Can Hear You Scream catapulted a young no-name cast into Hollywood fame. But below the surface, they were dealing with the fallout of their friend’s tragic death on set.
Now the cast is reuniting at the remote ski resort where the movie was filmed to announce the sequel and get a first glimpse of the screenplay. Cassidy, Jake, Ben, and Ruby—they’ve all followed different paths over the years, and each has their own reason for agreeing to return to a place they had sworn to leave behind.
At first everyone works hard to ignore the shadows of the past and focus on the opportunity ahead. But the reunion takes a dark turn during the midnight announcement to fans when a disturbing incident stirs up a long-buried secret.
About the Author:
TARA LASKOWSKI is the author of The Weekend Retreat, The Mother Next Door, and One Night Gone, which won an Agatha Award, Macavity Award, and Anthony Award, and was a finalist for the Mary Higgins Clark Award, Left Coast Crime Award, Strand Critics' Award, and Library of Virginia Literary Award. She is also the author of two short story collections, Modern Manners for Your Inner Demons and Bystanders, has published stories in Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine and Mid-American Review, among others, and is the former editor of SmokeLong Quarterly. Tara earned a BA in English from Susquehanna University and an MFA from George Mason University and currently lives in Virginia. Find her on Twitter and Instagram, @TaraLWrites.
LynDee Walker writes about strong women who can’t seem to stay out of trouble. Her books have appeared on finalist lists for the Agatha and Thriller awards—and once, on a major national bestsellers list smack in between two of her writing heroes. An award winning journalist, LynDee covered everything from ribbon cuttings and high school football to capital murder trials and high-level police corruption. In the past 12 years she’s written 21 novels in three series, as well as four psychological thrillers, including last summer’s The Other Widow and the forthcoming Too Good to Be True (January 2027) so she’s usually typing when she's not juggling laundry and children's sports schedules.

James Branch Cabell Library

Olufunke Grace Bankole, winner of the 2026 VCU Cabell First Novelist Award for The Edge of Water, gives a reading and participates in a moderated Q&amp;A session about the writing and publishing of her book on Nov. 12, 2026 at 7 p.m.
The Edge of Water is the winner of the Westport Prize for Literature as well as the Ploughshares John C. Zacharis First Book Award.
Mariah Rigg writes in Electric Literature, “Exploring the narrative powers of choice and betrayal, the complexity of identity and belonging, and the many revisions that take place across a family and a life, The Edge of Water asks the question of how much we owe our loved ones, how much we owe ourselves, how much we control our destiny, and when it’s okay to let ourselves off the hook.”
The event is free and open to all and will be held in person but will also be live streamed through Zoom. The in-person location will be James Branch Cabell Library, Room 303, 901 Park Ave., Richmond, Va. 23219. Parking is available for a fee in the West Broad Street, West Main Street and West Cary Street parking decks.
