About this listen
Chilling tales blend nostalgic Americana backdrops with doses of creepy whimsy à la Ray Bradbury. Wickedly humorous at times, make no mistake – malice lurks behind the smirks. Like classic Twilight Zone, these stories shock more than they soothe.
The Earth is a different place after the continental convergence, but teenage girls are facing the same social challenges while transitioning from high school and into the real world where magic and science now co-exist. Kristen is skipping school and coping with the loss of her father when she meets the grim reaper under an old washed-out shop of curiosities in the abandoned Art District. While he isn’t there to administer her the death touch, he is there to help her kill Time in a plot involving the personifications of Fate, Mother Nature, and the Father of Lies. After her breakthrough experience with Death, things get weird for Kristen and her crew. When they suspect something bad has happened to her, they embark on a rescue mission fit for the birds.
The Death of Science is a twisted and humorous foray into the vast multi-faceted universe of Rootworld. Like a contemporary Twilight Zone, this satirical science fiction fantasy tale will appeal to fans of both Tales from the Crypt as well as other Death Incarnate Brilliances like Terry Pratchett and Piers Anthony.
