Lovecraft, Philip K. Dick, Ayn Rand, and whomever else would come up with a dystopian present."--Vulture<br><br><strong>Praise for <em>It Devours! </em></strong>"<em>It Devours!</em> 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."<br/><br/>--<em>Washington Book Review</em><br><br>"[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."<br/><br/>--Tor.com<br><br>"Welcome to Night Vale is a bit like Twin Peaks if it were a podcast -- with menacing glow clouds and monstrous mayors."--Digital Trends<br><br>"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."--<em>BookPage</em><br><br>"<em>Welcome to Night Vale</em> is a bit like Twin Peaks if it were a podcast -- with menacing glow clouds and monstrous mayors."--Digital Trends<br><br>"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<br><br>"If you like your stories creepy and soothing at the same time, you'll love Welcome to Night Vale."--Mashable<br><br>"One of the OG pioneers in podcasting fictional drama..."--Bustle<br>
