When I first made Dead Star Twilight available back in 2008, I put together a "soundtrack" for it on iTunes which featured a lot of the music referenced within the story as well as a few songs I just felt fit the overall mood of the book. In the end, my decision to add a multimedia component to the initial release wound up being one of my favorite things about it.
Since music is such an important part of my life, it makes sense that it would play an invaluable role in Dead Star Twilight -- and it does. So this time around, once again, I'm releasing a musical companion to the book that I think adds considerably to the experience of reading it. As I said, most of this material is mentioned in one way or another within the story itself. For those interested, it's all available at iTunes; I've provided a link to this playlist at the bottom of the page.
