The Lie Behind the Star | Quinn's Graphic Novel

- Опубликовано: 10 ноя 2023
- The universe is incomprehensibly vast. Earth is an unprotected bubble surrounded in infinite cosmic emptiness. Within that darkness, that eternal blackness who knows what might wait, and what eventually might call out to us. The Lie Behind The Star, follows the Waanzilishi, a civilization who deep within caverns of the earth discovered strange pulsating mushrooms, mushrooms which they grew to understand were actually reacting to something remote, very remote. The bioluminescent mushrooms were somehow responding to a distant signal from outer space, undetectable through normal means. The consumption of the Mushrooms brought visions of the cosmos, a wealth of outside knowledge. At night under the influence of the mushrooms they would dance wildly beneath the earth illuminated by the thousands upon thousands of pulsating fungi, filled with the music of the universe.
As time went on the attachment between the Waanzilishi and the mushrooms grew stronger. Some among them claimed that they could themselves hear the call of the signal, which they named the Kimora. In time three children would be born, The Waanzilishi, using what they have learned, changed the children somehow, made them a part of the fungal network, they became, The Three Who Are One. By directly linking into the fungal network they could manipulate it, initiate its growth, use it to produce chemicals, and biological substances of all kinds. The Three Who are One were granted by the fungus near unending life, around them eventually grew an immense city all formed from the biological matter of the fungus. It was said that the Three Who are One could hear the Kimora at all times, that their purpose was guided by the Kimora and the Kimora alone.
The Waanzilishi prospered and grew, advancing themselves, technologically, philosophically, and intellectually whilst simultaneously the Kimora took on heavily mystical and religious significance. Many believe that the Kimora, was the voice of a Goddess, that the Waanzilishi were her chosen people. To the Waanzilishi, the Adjeki, the outsiders played no role, they were not chosen by Kimora. Eventually it became the mission of the Waanzilishi to find their goddess. The Three who are one declared that those who heard the Kimora most strongly would be taken as children and trained for a mission, a mission they may never return from, aboard a biological vessel they would leave the earth, and seek her out.

RUNNING to back!
Question, if i pledge to paperback, do guys ship outside the us?
@@supsup335 Yes!
OH MY GOSH!!! So excited!!!🏃🏻♀️💨
Your book sounds awesome, Quinn...
I NEED IT!!!
Im 38 with moderate dyslexia. Youve been reading to me for years. This is going to be the first book ive ever bought or read. Thank you.
hmm, i just got into audio books, mostly for books i have already read. i just got the prince of nothing, by bakker, the voice actor is on point
100% backing up this project with whatever funds I can gather. I’m also a writer. Excellent project idea, perfect art and an engaging plot with intimate insights from your own mind and thoughts. I’m genuinely excited for this project!
I agree, Quinn is one of the GOATs for sure! Glad he's developed a fan base that obviously agrees with that assessment!
How was your experience with the publishing process? I’ve had about five horrible experiences with different publishers
, so I’m asking you because this was a success, and is a success I have been sitting on a concept for about a year now and would love to launch it. Any information or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and congrats again on this project.
I agree totally with your statement "Science fiction is the most powerful of genres; it shows us what we could possibly be."
Can i just say i love the Quinn's Ideas soundtrack? Despite how videos are often horror related, the "theme song" is comforting
Thanks Quinn. The book looks beautiful! Congratulations and thanks for all your wonderful work over the years. Long time listener and really appreciate what you do.
Have you considered releasing an audiobook version? Myself and I’m sure lots of your listeners would love to hear your story in full ❤
There is one.
In the video he says that he is voicing the audio version
DUDE! Way to go, this is awesome. I've enjoyed your videos for so long, and this one was hitting especially good. Then when you said "BOOM it's my book baby" I was so freaking excited for you. It sounds like a really good story, and I quite enjoyed your introduction to it.
I grew up in a very religious and strict home, and I too am fascinated by the intersections of philosophy, religion, worldbuilding within literature and humanity. Cheers! Hannah
This has easily become my favorite youtube channel! Your ultimate dune saga was my introduction, and since then it has been nothing but amazing content. The amazing stories you present, the mesmerizing scripts, and your calm voice are deserving of praise that’s out of this world. Another outstanding video Quinn!
Sci fi has brain-washed Naive people in believing in Aliens; Space Conquest; etc....
In reality; advanced life is few and far in between...and totally dependent on its planets biome..
Space-life and travel is impossible...
Id love to buy your book! Can't wait for it to come out!
I would definitely buy the audio version
The darkest secret of the universe is that Victoria doesn’t have one.
HOLY FUCKING SHIT DUDE! WHAT THE FUCK!?
I spit out my coffee, thanks!
Now you know too much. Remain where you are. Victoria's Secret Police have been dispatched to your location.
She's an old man living in Ohio making money off of girls like me.
I love the internet.
Been going through some really difficult times for a few years now, but especially recently. But no matter what happens, through everything, you and your amazing work bring me some of the only relief from my own mind sometimes, and it's probably one of the few reasons i'm still here, seeing that a new video is up and feeling like i can escape, even just for a minute. Thank you so much for all of it
Got it! Can't wait to see it! Even if I don't love it, the $ is worth it for all of the great entertainment you've given me over the past couple years. I love your obvious enthusiasm for the genres you cover. Best of luck to you Quinn!
The only downside is the projected release date, but I totally get how these things work. It's kind of awesome, though. By the time it's released, I'll have 1/2 forgotten about it, so it will be an amazing surprise present to myself. 😁
This sounds soooo good. I love horrifying philosophical science. I've watched your channel since back when it was Ideas Of Ice and Fire. I remember seeing a channel called Quinn's ideas talking about science fiction and had no idea when I'd subscribed to it...took me a solid two videos before I realized the name change😅 either way, I love your content and this has me incredibly excited to see where the story goes
I love your channel because you address the higher subjects and themes of the material. Also your passion for science fiction can not be ignored. Passion is infectious. Congrats on the new book. I look forward to more analysis. Keep doing you Quinn. It's a formula for success.
Extremely interesting. Heading to Indiegogo.
Intro hitting hard as ever
Just wanna say Quin, you have come along way and I hope your novels sale like hot cakes. GODSPEED AND GODBLESS!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I love the concept that the psychedic effects of mushrooms are a byproduct of communication between a cosmic alien intelligence and humanity. Fantastic concept brother and thanks for all you do for sci-fi fans w this channel.
Incidentally, I tried buying your graphic novel, and my credit card didn't go through. I checked to make sure the info was correct, but still no go. Just letting you know there may be an issue there.
Same, says my card couldn’t be recognized
This sounds so cool, congrats Quinn. Had I had money I'd buy myself a copy. Also, I'd support the Audio Drama of your graphic novel as well. Love me some great voice acting and atmospheric story telling.
Did not expect this to be yours. This sounded amazing. 😳🔥🔥🔥
The only truth of the universe is that Quinn was born to summarize and read science fiction to the masses with his distinguished voice and stellar delivery.
Quinn I am so happy to see that you are releasing another wonderful piece of work! The visuals and the story are all so tantalising! I wish I was able to spare some money to support this! Still, I hope you are very proud of yourself and the same to the rest of your team!
Splurged on a signed copy. You’ve given me so many good book recommendations, I owe you. Thanks, Quinn.
Wow I’m excited to have caught your video on the morning of its release! Thanks for sharing Quinn, and *Congratulations*!!!
I love how the video starter like any other, got myself fully into your narration only for you to suddenly tell that's yours novel. wow, congrats!
Okay two QuinnsIdeas videos in two days in a row? Yeah I could get used to this. I’ve said it once I’ll say it again man you easily put out some of the best content on RUclips. You Reignited my passion and love for sci fi books. I know it’s considered a waste of time by many academics to read science fiction but it’s my favorite genre. No other books get my mind racing and ideas flowing like a good science fiction book.
Yes!!! Thank you Quinn for ALL you do, your work brings immense joy...not just to me, but every single person I share it with.
Great video as always, Quinn!
05:51 I can relate, having grown up in the south myself.
This is really awesome, Quinn and Team. Looks incredible and will definitely be checking this out.
Backed! So excited for this project. You are a great reader, thinker, critic, and now a great author. Your vision is important and I appreciate you!
Definitely getting this. Love your channel Quinn!
Yay! Been waiting for this. :)
This channel ❤️❤️❤️. Love the videos on dark, pessimistic speculative stories.
this looks so amazing, from the story idea to the art to the biological aesthetic. i am absolutely getting this when my next paycheck gets here
Congrats again on the launch. On another note, so nice to get so much content lately. Thanks for putting in the work!
Ahhh this is so exciting, the synopsis captivated me! Thank you Quinn, absolutely will contribute to your Indiegogo 🙏 I have you to thank for my intro to Dune, I never would’ve read or understood the series without you ❤
I kept going "I know that name, why?" And then as soon as you said it was your book I got really excited. I'm definitely grabbing a copy when I get the chance.
Quinn. Never stop making videos man. The way you must narrate and talk about shit and nerd out is just refreshing. And your voice is like butter dude. Also holy shit i didnt realize your story has similarities to one i kinda have running around in my head. Definitely has a fungi theme along with some space horror and other shit. I love it! Now i need to give this a read. Mushrooms are the best (;
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! SO COOL! buying this once i'm not broke
Amazing work! The way you organize and present it! keep doing it!
Nice work! Keep it up Quinn!
Oh shish!!! Gotta get this fast!!! Digging the podcast too!!! Thanks for all the great content!
Quinn! Keep doing this! I'm definitely going to be getting the paperback work! You are one of my favorite content creators!
The truth of the universe is that science fiction is the greatest genre
Awesome, Quinn!
Congratulations on the new novel!
Cheers!
Love your chanel!
Thanks for the always excelent videos!
congratulations.
i adore you for creating this and wish you and your team luck with the lie behind the star.
long time fan of the channel and if even a fraction of the same care and passion is poured into the project, then we are all in for something special.
Ebook ordered! GL with the campaign, it looks awesome so far.
Sounds awesome. Can’t wait to get a hand on it. Your dune videos have been my life blood for a while now. So happy for you man.
Wow. Really excited for u and this project. I will be backing later today. Happy for u and cant wait 👍👍👍😀😀
You are so cool Quinn! I have been subscribed for a long time and it's been awesome to see your channel grow. Keep doing awesome work.
Super excited. I just ordered!
This book looks AMAZING, Quinn!! I very much look forward to getting this!!
The concept sounds amazing my man when you were describing it at the beginning I had no idea this wasn’t an old sci fi book I’d never heard of, I’m definitely going to pick up a copy
Another great production. You have a very lovely reading voice and tone. Always so fun to learn about these amazing reads I might've otherwise missed. Keep up the awesome work 👍🏻 Also, the theme song is a pleasant little tune
Signed copy purchased! Love what you do here!
This looks amazing!! The storyline is very compelling. I definitely want to buy one
Looking forward to this. Congrats 💯
4:36 best plot twist
ever 😂👍🏼 must have been a great feeling to do this video about your own creations!
I remember watching u a really long time ago, then lost track of ur channel for quite some while and re-discovered it back in 2020! When I heard the intro music.. it seemed like a missing part from my early yt years had finally had finally found its way home. Thank God for your channel.. its so interesting and intriguing af. Knowledge and fiction combo at its best
I hope you find great success with your Graphic Novel. I like the premise of the mycorrhizal network and access to it, as well as the bio machines which removes the need for advance tech to be introduced for the story. Also do you know that the structure of the universe and galactic clusters with their networks of filaments of plasma and dark matter are studied by the analogue of growing mycorrhizal networks in the lab? This makes a nice connection to actual science study going on today.
I am a huge comic and gn collector i am getting a deluxe hard cover for sure. And i cant wait to read along with quinn’s audio. That’ll be so awesome. Amazing job man.
You provide such a cool perspective on all the best things. Thanks for making the world a better place!
Congrats on publishing, that's huge
Hell yeah. Had fun with your last book and I’m sure this one’s gonna be great too!
Keep up the hustle Quinn.
Oh wow. Looking amazing!
Backed it and can’t wait for my copy. Thanks for the countless hours of superb content. I salute you good sir!
Thank you for showing us your stories. :)
Congratulations!! It looks amazing!
Excited for this!
Hitting the like button right away. Thanks for another good video
Woah! Duuude!!!! This sounds awesome!
This sounds absolutely fantastic mate, buying for sure!
This project sounds pretty interesting, and I'm totally on board with your analysis of Octavia Butler. She was a real luminary.
Congratulations! This looks amazing!
Thank you for all your great work & of course I'm backing you.
Fantastic Video as always!! :) 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 💖❤️💖❤️
dude, this is amazing. well done.
Thank you for this channel man!! you got me into sci-fi books 😊😊😊❤❤❤
Love your channel by the way
That's pretty cool seeing you get into making your own stuff, and the art in both is astounding. If you want someone for more energetic techno for some portions if you go forwards with the audio-drama, Mothership Loudspeakerz makes awesome tunes.
Hey man, good luck with the book.
It was through your videos I discovered Cixin Liu and since then I've got at least one other friend onto them, so the word is spreading.
Backed! Can't wait!
"If i pretiet your content"
Quinn you the only youtuber i actually watch your videos without wasting time ❤
Unless three body problem because didnt read the final book yet 😂
You're really putting out a lot of content lately, nice job man!
happy to contribute and buy one. thanks for all the thoughtful content over the years.
This sounds awesome!
Oh, Tadya was yours!!!
I've read it! Didn't realize you're the same author :)
omg this looks amazing!
love it Quinn! im down
I look forward to reading it Quinn.
The concept alone is intriguing enough that I want to hear more. Can't wait to hear the audio drama because I already believe this will hit its stretch goal.
I love it! I listen for hours!
I literally squealed with excitement when you revealed that you wrote this! This sci-fi concept is so cool!
Congrats looks great
Excited!!! ❤
I really like your content allways interesting, keep up the good work.
