Hi, Dan,

Yes, definitely. Though I haven't read TWV yet (expecting my copy from Lulu any day now), I can safely say that one major difference is Dread's urban, street-level look and feel. It's like a violent cop show (The Shield, The Wire, Law and Order SVU), only the cops can vomit acid or turn their hands into giant lobster claws. And the perps are demons.

The work that you did on the web site (and the book!) was absolutely amazing. I'm still in awe of that mouse-over feature...
