Okay, so that’s not really true.  Rather, in this episode, Daniel talks to us about his debut novel, a dark genre-bending noir monstrosity we could best describe as awesome, and other fun things, such as how his book can save the World Economy.  If you haven’t read Low Town, we highly recommend it.  It’s noir.  It’s New Weirdy.  It’s dark.  And it’s amazing.
