Simon Stålenhag was featured by Caine back in 2016, and there is some interesting news out: a TV series based on his Tales from the Loop is coming out April 3! I’m a little bit excited because I had no idea this was in the works, and also I just bought his book The Electric State. Soundtrack composed by Philip Glass and Paul Leonard-Morgan.
Here’s the trailer, it looks suitably unfathomable and weird and slightly creepy to me:
Looking forward to this very much!
If you’re into tabletop roleplaying games: Yes, there is a Tales From the Loop RPG. Available from here (the publisher), or from DriveThruRPG.com.
I’ve got his books. Great stuff, very odd and beautiful.
Just watched Episode 1.
I liked it.
Episode 2.
Chilling.
Episode 3.
Being a teenager in love really sucks.
Episode 4
Old age is not fun either.
Episode 5
Working class poor, ditto.
Episode 6
Being a gay, black, parallel-universe-traveller is quite difficult.
