Welcome to Night Vale Review

In this book, there is a mystery in imaginative disappearances and appearances. This depicts how humans struggle to look for one another regardless of their place of residence. The book is mostly known to be weird but in real sense it is not more than real life in weirdness. With the quality of Hyde and Jekyll in it, the novel has become weird even the more. Joseph Fink has just made the book even more interesting with lots of splendid writing styles. The book is about a certain strain of gothics from America encompassing the Twilight Zone. The novel is also around the Twin Peaks and Stephen King with tremors thrown inside.

Night Vale is just a small place that is located in an anonymous desert in the Southwest America. In this town, angels, ghosts, government conspiracies and aliens are believed to be part of the everyday life. There are two women here who will have their lives with two mysteries converged at the anonymous town.

Jackie Fierro is a 19-year old pawn shop owner in the place who is given a paper with the marking ‘KING CITY’ by a mysterious man. As the man gives the paper to this shop owner, he is holding a deer skin suitcase and he is dressed in tan jacket as well. It is from the appearance of this man that starts to cause almost all the trouble. The shop owner becomes uncomfortable with the man because in the first place no one who meets the man can remember anything about him. This seriously sets the mind of the woman into unsettledness.

Jacky then has the zeal to uncover the King City’s mystery and the man before she can unveil herself. Josh who is a son of Diane Crayton; a PTA treasurer in the Night Vale town seems to be moody and shape shifter. Later on, Josh starts to see the father of her son wherever she goes with the same look as when they were still teenagers. As Diane is looking at Josh, she realizes that he looks different and this gives even more interest in his father. This situation leads to a disaster that is evident to Diane but unfortunately she seems to be helpless in preventing it.

To try and solve the mystery, Diane tries to reconnect with Josh her son. At the same time, Jackie searches for her former routine of life and funnily enough, the two searches collide and the two women converge at two words ‘KING CITY’. This means that the mysteries of these two women can be solved in the King City if they can find it.
