#2 - Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury

from Arcade Bookshop · host Arcade Bookshop

Bryce and Caleb talk about Earthbound's literary counterpart, Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury. The discussion addresses Bradbury's writing style, the history of this famous novel, and what he might be saying about parenting, making choices, coming of age, and how it all ties in nicely after playing Earthbound. Listen to chats about stories in video games and their literary counterparts every other Monday! Bryce and Caleb think it would be fun if listeners played and read along with them.
