Let me give you some probably bad advice. Skip the Johnny Truant parts and skim past all the creative layout stuff. It's just decoration, and decoration is often suspicious. Focus on the core story. It’s fantastic. There’s a shot at building a full-on American mythology, Lovecraft-style, from that alone.

Sadly, almost no one talks about it. Ditch the form and embrace the substance. ← It also nods to the mystery behind The Navidson Record.

I wish I had known this when I first read it.

I agree, I loved the story (I also did kind of enjoy the form, but agree it can get in the way of enjoying the story).

The Navidson Record is on youtube if you dare =P

Thank you. It calls to me from the shelf occasionally.
