From the authors of the New York Times bestselling novel Welcome to
Night Vale and the creators of the #1 international podcast of the
same name, comes a collection of episodes from Season Two of their hit
podcast, featuring a foreword by the authors, behind-the-scenes
commentary, and original illustrations.
In June of 2012, the creators of Welcome to Night Vale began airing
twice-weekly podcasts, hoping to be heard by anyone outside their close
circles. By the anniversary show a year later, the fanbase had exploded,
vaulting the podcast into the #1 spot on iTunes. Since then, its
popularity has grown by epic proportions, hitting more than 100 million
downloads, and Night Vale has expanded to a successful live multi-cast
international touring stage show and a New York Times bestselling
novel. Now the first two seasons are available as books, offering an
entertaining reading experience and a valuable reference guide to past
episodes.
In The Great Glowing Coils of the Universe we witness a totalitarian
takeover of Night Vale that threatens to forever change the town and
everyone living in it.
The Great Glowing Coils of the Universe features a foreword by Maureen
Johnson, an introduction by co-writer Jeffrey Cranor, and
behind-the-scenes commentary and guest introductions by performers from
the podcast and notable fans, including Cecil Baldwin (Cecil), Mara
Wilson (The Faceless Old Woman), Hal Lublin (Steve Carlsberg) among
others. Also included is the full script from the Welcome to Night Vale
live show*, The Debate.* Beautiful illustrations by series artist
Jessica Hayworth accompany each episode.
The Great Glowing Coils of the Universe is an absolute must-have
whether you're a fan of the podcast or discovering for the first time
the wonderful world of Night Vale.
