To celebrate the mass market paperback launch of The Black Prism on August 23, Orbit and I teamed up with talented filmmaker Leo Kei Angelos to make what I think is the coolest book trailer you will see this year. “Book trailer?!” you might be saying. “You mean those pale imitations of movie trailers?
