Sinopsis

'Vinyl Wonderland isáa wonder. A Bradburyesque dark fantasyáthatâÇÖs also aápage-turning mystery, soaked in 80s nostalgia and classic rock-and-roll. There are more twists in this book than a Joe Jackson record. Brendan Purcell is a fabulous character, a wide-eyed narrator caught up in a sinister small-town nightmare, burdened with his own tightly-held secrets. Vinyl Wonderland is the best contemporary fantasy IâÇÖve read it years.áIt is destined to be a classic.'á-- Todd McAulty, author,áThe Robots of Gotham'Splendid, inventive, compelling, and surprising,áRigney knows how to seize and hold his readers.' -- Howard Andrew Jones, author ofáThe Ringsworn TrilogyáandáLord of a Shattered LandWelcome to Vinyl WonderlandThink 11/22/63 meets David Lynch-- a young 1980s record-store manager mourning the death of his mother at Christmastime discovers a doorway that leads to an infinite wasteland of cast-off junk, once there, he discovers he can choose one item and one only: what he needs, or what he wants.ItâÇÖs 1984, and when record shop owner Karl Wickett suffers an unexpected stroke, high school drop-out Brendan Purcell finds himself in charge ofáVinyl Wonderland.
