in the great tradition of the podcast

I read the 401 page factual government report about the events that led to WTNV episode 76 (The Epilogue), and I would give it 3.5 stars. I suspect the book on CD version would be FABulous, since it is performed by Cecil & other cast members.
Although the characters and plot mostly stand alone from the podcast, I have this vague (but not menacing) feeling that you need to be familiar with Night Vale from that setting to truly enjoy the book.
"Remember that misuse of language can lead to miscommunication, and that miscommunication leads to everything that has ever happened in the world. " (p 392)
The podcast in book form? submitted by tbbrown76 on July 13, 2016, 7:49pm I look forward to the podcasts and wouldn't want it all together. The podcasts are a little odd. I agree you need to be familiar with it from the start to really get it.
