Seated in surreal, atmospheric environments, you’ll turn each page by hand as the story unfolds around you through sound, mood, and setting.Theo wakes on the shore of a fog-covered island with no clear idea how he got there. What begins as confusion soon becomes something far stranger: twisted places, uncanny encounters, and the bizarre orbit of Phaser Reach—the Greatest Space Station North of the Harbor. Part mystery, part dark comedy, and part dream, this is a short novel designed to be experienced rather than simply read.

Recommended Aug 13, 2018
'Adventures In the Light & Dark' is like no other reading experience. It was like I was right alongside with Theo, travelling into places unknown, meeting new characters and discovering new secrets. Being surrounded with extra audio and visual elements truly brought the story to life! I felt myself walking through the woods, listening the sounds of nature and the crackling fire. While I definitely recommend this book to other readers, I would recommend it to older teenagers, mainly because it will resonate better with them. The writing is tame enough that younger teens could also read it, but most of the characters are growing up to be adults or on the verge of adulthood. Older readers would take the most from it since they can not only relate, but they may also better pick up on and appreciate Theo's sometimes subtle humor. I cannot wait for the sequel!

Reading this book in VR was very immersive, with the subtle sound effects in the background and the visual animations to keep you engaged. I found that the main character Theo was very captivating and I kept wanting to see what is next in our journey through the wilderness. This is an Indie written expierence that deserves attention for the quality put into the writing and characters in this story and I recommend this to anybody that wants to get into VR reading experiences, or anybody is just looking for a new casual read.
