If you already happen to know the awful secret behind the universe, feel free to skip ahead.We've picked up a very cool novel by David Wong called John Dies at the End which we're planning for a quick release this summer. This book has it all: apocalyptic scenario, genuine scares and creepiness, and very dark humor. Imagine X-Files redone with more horror by the guys who did "Shaun of the Dead" and you're getting the very general idea. And you can read the whole thing online here right now!
