How do you create an audio edition of the world’s first Digi-Novel™—a novel that can be read straight through
but also directs you to a Web site to log into and watch motion picture footage that will enhance the story? It is with
great pleasure that Penguin Audio announces the first Digi-Audio™ experience with LEVEL 26: Dark Origins
by the creator of the CSI franchise, Anthony E. Zuiker, and written with Duane Swierczynski.
What is the first Digi-Audio experience? It offers two ways to experience the audiobook. The more traditional
way is with eight unabridged CDs, read by John Glover, well-known on Broadway, in film, and for his five Emmy
Award nominations. However, included in the audiobook package is another way to experience LEVEL 26: Dark
Origins: an exclusive DVD containing Glover’s brilliant reading, which automatically launches each cyber-bridge
(twenty in all) at the appropriate point in the story. The DVD will also contain never-before-seen bonus material,
including original illustrations by Marc Ecko and photo stills from the shoots of the cyber-bridges.
Whether one chooses the traditional audiobook or the Digi-Audio experience on DVD, the story will grip you
from beginning to end.
LEVEL 26: Dark Origins is centered around the worst serial killer that law enforcement has ever seen.
There have always been 25 levels of serial killers. Sqweegel is the first to be classified as level 26. And there is only
one man who can find him: Steve Dark, once a part of the highly secret black ops element within the U.S.
government who has sworn off chasing Sqweegel since his family was brutalized. But when Sqweegel comes calling,
Dark has no choice but to immerse himself in this unknown killer’s mind, hoping to stay one step ahead of him—or
risk his last chance at a normal life.
