Summary

From the authors of the New York Times best-selling novel Welcome to Night Vale and the number one podcast of the same name comes a mystery exploring the intersections of faith and science, the growing relationship between two young people who want desperately to trust each other and the terrifying, toothy power of the Smiling God.

Nilanjana Sikdar is an outsider to the town of Night Vale. Working for Carlos, the town's top scientist, she relies on fact and logic as her guiding principles. But all of that is put into question when Carlos gives her a special assignment investigating a mysterious rumbling in the desert wasteland outside of town.

This investigation leads her to the Joyous Congregation of the Smiling God, and to Darryl, one of its most committed members. Caught between her beliefs in the ultimate power of science and her growing attraction to Darryl, she begins to suspect the Congregation is planning a ritual that could threaten the lives of everyone in town. Nilanjana and Darryl must search for common ground between their very different world views as they are faced with the Congregation's darkest and most terrible secret.

Perfect

Another wonderful addition from the World of WTNV. Cecil Baldwin is a fantastic voice artist and Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor are brilliant storytellers.

Once again a fun and interesting listen that also raised some questions about society and the way of the world.

Sublime weirdness. Great addition/starting point

As a long time listener of the podcast this is a great expansion, but easily works as an oak doorway into Night Vale.
Great performance from Cecil, and a clever story weaving in some good touches.
Joyfully I devoured

It Delivers

A fine addition to the Night Vale universe, although it can also be enjoyed as a stand alone. Lots of plot twists and unexpected incidents as religion and science meet head on, and of course a whole bunch of the darkest humour too.

Cecil Baldwin’s narrative is top notch as ever and he brings all the various characters to life with his dependable rock solid delivery.

Amazing twist and powerful character development

They do it again and they do it in the style of Nightvale. This novel feels like that second part of a trilogy, the best part of course. Can't wait for their third novel.

As expected, & yet, it still exceeds expectations

This was a really tender, pensive piece of work. strangely, I feel like I understand reality more having read a very surreal book. Cecil narrates it perfectly, the writing is as inspired and touching as ever, and the story itself is typically strange, yet seemed more touching than outright funny as the first book had been. This isn't a bad thing though. It was perfect. <3
