Summary

This exclusive audiobook short story looks back - way back - to where it all began for Odd Thomas and Stormy Llewellyn, two souls who are destined to be together forever.

Amid the dizzying rides, tantalizing games of chance, and fanciful attractions of a state fair, two teenage sweethearts on the cusp of life and love's pleasures find their way to a shadowy carnival tent brimming with curiosities. There, from the bizarre and enthralling Gypsy Mummy, a mechanized merchant of dreams and prognosticator of tomorrows, the young couple learns what fate promises for them. But fate, for Odd Thomas and Stormy Llewellyn, is something altogether different: full of dark corners, sharp edges, and things no seer or soothsayer could ever anticipate.

And for Odd Thomas, a gallant fry cook from a sleepy California desert town, the future beckons - to listen to unquiet spirits, pursue unsettling mysteries, and learn shocking truths...for a purpose far greater than himself.

It's was like meeting an old friend. I'm going to revisit the whole series from the beginning.

Didn’t realise it wasn’t the whole book

Good…..enjoyed it but didn’t realise it wasn’t the whole book.
Having read it before I was really looking forward to listening to it.

Disappointed

Ok

This is a strange little story, at least I know what it's about now. Now sure if I'll get the full book.

Excellent introduction to the series.

I listened to this after I'd finished the Odd Thomas series of novels. it is, of course, a precursor to the events that follow. It's a beautiful story and an excellent introduction to the characters. I feel it would be best listened to before listening or reading the novels but it is also nice to revisit the characters and see how it all started. The narration is really good too.
