Praise for Welcome to Night Vale

This is the novel of your dreams. . . . A friendly (but terrifying) and comic (but dark) and glittering (but bleak) story of misfit family life that unfolds along the side streets, back alleys, and spring-loaded trapdoors of the small town home you ll realize you ve always missed living in. Glen David Gold, author of Carter Beats the Devil and Sunnyside

Those of us who have gotten to know Night Vale through Cecil Palmer s biweekly radio broadcasts can finally see what it s like to actually live there. It is as weird and surreal as I hoped it would be, and a surprisingly existential meditation on the nature of time, reality, and the Glow Cloud that watches over us. Wil Wheaton

Take Conan s Hyboria, teleport it to the American Southwest, dress all the warriors in business casual and hide their swords under the floorboards that s Night Vale: absurd, magical, wholly engrossing, and always harboring some hidden menace. John Darnielle, author of Wolf in White Van

I ve been a fan of Welcome to Night Vale for years, and in that time writers Jeffrey Cranor and Joseph Fink have delighted me with stories that are clever, twisted, beautiful, strange, wonderful, and sweet. This book does all of that and so much more. It s even better than I d hoped. I think this might be the best book I ve read in years. Patrick Rothfuss, author of The Name of the Wind

This small town full of hooded figures, glowing clouds, cryptically terrifying public policies, and flickering realities quickly feels more like home than home. . . . There is nothing like Night Vale, in the best possible way. Maureen Johnson, author of 13 Little Blue Envelopes and The Name of the Star

They ve done the unthinkable: merged the high weirdness and intense drama of Night Vale to the pages of a novel that is even weirder, even more intense than the podcast. Cory Doctorow, author of Little Brother and coeditor of Boing Boing"

Описание: The world's most powerful newspaper barons -- which of them will triumph? At first glance, Richard Armstrong and Keith Townsend seemed to have little in common. One was the son of an illiterate peasant, who emerged from the most backward corner of a Europe ravaged by a bitter war. The other was raised in a mansion on the far side of the world while the war was just another piece of news. One was a hustler, a thief, ready to change even his identity, if it would gain him a momentary advantage. The other was the scion of a well-known family, groomed for a public role, a rebel who didn't care if anyone approved of what he got up to. One craved wealth, recognition, status. The other quickly discovered that real power comes from anonymity. But they did have one thing in common. Both of them were gamblers. Both were prepared to risk everything in their battle to control the biggest newspaper empire in the world. From bestselling author Jeffrey Archer, The Fourth Estate is a tale of corruption, risk and two men who are willing to destroy each other to gain power.
