For comic book and steampunk fans, the original scripts to the comic
book series adapted from the New York Times–bestselling novel based
on a Rush album. Clockwork Angels is a steampunk fantasy
adventure—and an innovative multimedia feast! Based on a story and
lyrics by legendary drummer Neil Peart, Clockwork Angels became the
worldwide bestselling concept album by Rush and was developed into a
New York Times bestselling and award-winning novel by Kevin J.
Anderson. Anderson and Peart, working with comics artist Nick Robles,
brought the epic tale to a visual canvas, a six-issue graphic novel
published by BOOM! Studios. Clockwork Angels: The Comic Scripts pulls
aside the creative curtain, showing the original scripts, panel by
panel, interactions between author and artist, as well as all the
secret “Easter eggs” intentionally planted throughout the images
as a special treat for Rush fans. Clockwork Angels: The Comic Scripts
is a fascinating book in its own right, to be studied by comic
writers, Rush fans, Kevin J. Anderson fans—and anyone interested in
a truly astonishing story of a young man’s journey across a
remarkable steampunk landscape with airships, pirates, alchemy, lost
cities, a fabulous carnival, and a hero who insists on making his
dreams come true. Praise for Clockwork Angels: “Stands on its
own merits as a grand adventure tale woven with threads of various
themes enough to keep it fresh, exciting and engaging. Ultimately,
Clockwork Angels is one of the most human of stories.” —Book
Reporter “Firmly planted in the steampunk genre, an epic-scale
story . . . with beautiful illustrations . . . a fine piece of
dystopian fiction, and it will appeal to readers young and old.”
