    About this ebook

    Newt Run is a town that shouldn't exist, a town of artists, drug dealers, miners and steam. It’s a town at the center of a broken universe, and broken universes have the bad tendency to fall apart.

    Newt Run is also a novel, but the world of Newt Run was much too large to fit inside a single book. These short stories, or 'modules', extend this world, probing into its deepest, smallest secrets.

    In 'Another Bookstore', an elderly man retires to the quiet and solitude of running a used bookstore, only to discover that in one of these books he appears to be the central character.
