Nourishing Book Festival nuggets seem to spread far and wide on the web. We'd like to share some of the best with you.
Video: The Sunday Times' brilliant podcasts include author interviews and readings from our events, while Edinburgh Festivals TV features quick chats with a wide range of Book Festival speakers; Mark Millar, Vince Cable, Julia Donaldson, Richard Eyre, Simon King.
Photos: A man with a true eye for portraiture, Murdo MacLeod's author photos are always impressive. Experience the festival through a montage of some of his favourite pics set to a soundtrack of event excerpts. Great fun. Also, see how much Kate Silverton enjoyed meeting The Gruffalo during Radio Five Live's broadcast from Charlotte Square Gardens.
Articles: Read what other people thought of our events in some excellent reviews and feature articles in Edinburgh Festivals magazine, Fest magazine and The Times (scroll half way down the page to see the Times articles).
