Local author Mark Van Name will read from and sign copies of his new novel, Children No More, which follows the adventures of a nanotech-enhanced ex-soldier and his sentient predator-class assault vehicle across multiple future worlds. Though Children No More is a fictional adventure story, it also tackles difficult issues surrounding child soldiers. Van Name is donating all of the proceeds from the sale of this hardback to Falling Whistles, a nonprofit organization which helps rehabilitate and reintegrate child soldiers in the Congo.
