Over winter The Leviathan Chronicles released their first for sale Special Edition episodes, right after eagerly downloading them, I sat down to give them a listen.
For several months Christof Laputka (Creator and Author), and Nobi Nakanishi (Director), had been alluding to these in their soapbox episodes. I didn't really know what to expect (Having purposely skipped listening to the trailers), but I knew that if it was in the Leviathan-verse and done by Mr. Laputka and Mr. Nakanishi, then it had to be good!
And boy did that turn out to be true!

When I started listening to "Internal Affairs" you could immediately tell that they had spent tons of time on the project, and when listening to "The Dramatist" you find yourself dropped into the 1930's and 40's, with the feel and sound completely down.
Even if you haven't listened to Leviathan, (Which you don't need to have to listen to these), they are both great introductions into the Leviathan-verse.
Both episodes are for sale on their website for $1.99 each, (The same as a TV episode on iTunes, but more content considering they are both longer than a TV episode).
I can praise Christof and Nobi's work enough, go by the episodes and get listening to The Leviathan Chronicles! (Season 1 already reviewed, see post archives).
The book Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld is about a futuristic World War II. One of the main characters is a German prince who is being chased by kidnappers who had just murdered his parents. His teacher shows him a "mechanical walker" that they are going to travel to Switzerland in, not telling the prince where or why they were doing it. That's how his side of the story begins.
