I got a great email from Harper Collins today about the new Dark Eden Trailer and Mobile App. More information about them can be found below!
SYNOPSIS:
Fifteen-year-old Will Besting is sent by his doctor to Fort Eden, an institution meant to help patients suffering from crippling phobias. Once there, Will and six other teenagers take turns in mysterious fear chambers and confront their worst nightmares—with the help of the group facilitator, Rainsford, an enigmatic guide. When the patients emerge from the chamber, they feel emboldened by the previous night's experiences. But each person soon discovers strange, unexplained aches and pains. What is really happening to the seven teens trapped in this dark Eden?
MOBILE APP:
DARK EDEN can be experienced in two ways. The series is enhanced by a downloadable app that enriches the elements of the traditional narrative through innovative story artifacts including still images, audio recordings, videos, scans, and text entries. For a complete explanation of how the app experience works, check out this video from author Patrick Carman. The DARK EDEN app is available now on the iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch and all Android enabled devices.
To get a taste of what's to come, download THE ARRIVAL, the first free episode, available through the DARK EDEN mobile app in the Apple/iOS App Store and the Android Market.
I've been following this book for forever, and I have to say, this is honestly one of the best books I have ever seen. I was a wee bit surprised at the fact that the story could be told through an app, but when I actually read the first chapter online and experienced the first part of the Dark Eden app, all I could say was- Patrick Carman has done it again! He captivated readers throughout the country with Skeleton Creek, a book with videos that told a story. He is now doing the same thing with Dark Eden, even though it is SO different! I have had the amazing opportunity to talk to this author, as well as many other kids and teens, and all I can say is you will definitely LOVE this book!
Hey PC fans!!! Dark Eden is the best book ever! I've read it a couple of times because I won a ARC on Facebook:) you can check out the DE app right now and read the first story for free:) A new chapter unlocks every Thursday. Let's go Super Fans!!! Thanks for showing this to me Maggie:)
