Author Robert Levy hopes to raise $9,850 on Kickstarter to record an audiobook edition of his supernatural thriller, The Glittering World. Levy has enlisted Grammy winner David Rapkin as a producer and voice actor Edoardo Ballerini as a narrator. We’ve embedded a video about the project above.
Here’s more from the Kickstarter page: “When Michael ‘Blue’ Whitley — a former party boy turned up-and-coming chef — returns with three friends to the remote Canadian commune of his birth, he discovers that his entire life has been a carefully orchestrated lie. He is in fact someone else altogether, a replacement for a local child who disappeared twenty-five years earlier. He is something not quite human. Set among the artisans, burnouts, and New Age mystics of remote Cape Breton, The Glittering World is a dark and modern fairy tale, a novel of self-identity and supernatural suspense.”
