Praise for It Devours! "It Devours! is different from other mystery
novels. It is as captivating and light as any mystery novel can be
but explores one of the most complex issues: the conflict between
science and reason on the one hand and, on the other hand, religion
and cult."
-- Washington Book Review"[A] smart exploration of the divide--and
overlap--of science and religion. . .. a thrilling adventure and a
fascinating argument that science and belief aren't necessarily
mutually exclusive."
-- Tor.com -- NPR.orgPraise for Welcome to Night Vale: "This is a
splendid, weird, moving novel...It manages beautifully that trick
of embracing the surreal in order to underscore and emphasize the
real - not as allegory, but as affirmation of emotional truths that
don't conform to the neat and tidy boxes in which we're encouraged
to house them." -- Los Angeles Times"Welcome to Night Vale lives up
to the podcast hype in every way. It is a singularly inventive
visit to an otherworldly town that's the stuff of nightmares and
daydreams." -- BookPage"If you like your stories creepy and
soothing at the same time, you'll love Welcome to Night Vale." --
Mashable"Defining its own corner of the dark comedy universe since
it started in 2012, Welcome to Night Vale is a peek into the
goings-on of a typical American small town if that burg had been
co-conceived by H.P. Lovecraft, Philip K. Dick, Ayn Rand, and
whomever else would come up with a dystopian present." --
Vulture"Welcome to Night Vale is a bit like Twin Peaks if it were a
podcast -- with menacing glow clouds and monstrous mayors." --
Digital Trends"Each episode acts as a news broadcast of sorts from
a small desert town named Night Vale, and they're more horror/dark
humor than sci-fi, really. The broadcasts are spooky, absurd, and,
well, funny. That's a hard tightrope to walk." -- Mashable"One of
the OG pioneers in podcasting fictional drama..." -- BustlePraise
for the Welcome to Night Vale podcast "If you like your stories
creepy and soothing at the same time, you'll love Welcome to Night
Vale." -- Mashable"Defining its own corner of the dark comedy
