Inside

A fantasy morning full of verbal power, intrigue, and fairy-tale suspense

Jennifer Benkau brings a reading of Fairiegolden Town – The Princess of Thieves to Rosenheim, sharpening the view of fantasy as a literary experience: cleverly constructed, atmospherically dense, and supported by an author who has been a strong voice in the German-speaking scene with children's, young adult, and fantasy novels for years. Benkau was awarded the DeLiA Literature Prize in 2013 for Dark Canopy; other titles like One true Queen and The Realm of Shadows illustrate her range between romantic fantasy, young adult literature, and epic fantasy.

An author with a sense for characters, pace, and emotional depth

Those who read Jennifer Benkau encounter not just a mere plot, but carefully composed narration: characters with inner conflicts, worlds with political friction, and a language that not only tells suspense but creates it. The new material about Bria, the Princess of Thieves, starts exactly where contemporary literature and fantasy intersect: in the struggle for self-assertion, belonging, and dignity. Heyne Verlag describes Fairiegolden Town as the first adult fantasy novel by the SPIEGEL bestselling author; at the same time, the book is part of the current fantasy releases of the Spring 2025 program.

Why this morning is worthwhile for literature lovers

The event promises not only a classic reading but a literary experience with a clear focus on linguistic art, character development, and genre competence. Those who do not merely consume fantasy but read it as a cultural discourse on power, origin, and self-determination will find rich material here. The Rosenheim Fantasy Days 2026 will already gather an audience that understands readings, discussions, and signing sessions as a vibrant part of the literary scene.

In the end, there is an invitation to meet an author who understands fantasy as a serious narrative form and engages her audience with pace, depth, and atmosphere. Those who love stories that entertain and resonate should experience this event live. ([de.wikipedia.org](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennifer_Benkau?utm_source=openai))
