Wordfest is delighted to present Ben Macintyre, master of the spy genre, and his newest blockbuster, The Siege: A Six Day Hostage Crisis and the Daring Special-Forces Operation That Shocked the World. The sure-to-be compelling conversation, hosted by Wordfest's Shelley Youngblut, includes an audience Q & A and book signing, fuelled by Owl’s Nest Books, who will also have copies of Macintyre’s impressive backlist on hand (order in advance here).

We are grateful to Penguin Random House Canada for making it possible to connect you with Ben Macintyre.
