Welcome to 1984 and the town of South Wakefield. Chris Lane is 14 and he's
sure that he can see the future, or at least guess what's inside of Christie
Brinkley's mind. But he can't foresee the closing of Joyland, the town's only
video arcade. With the arcade's passing comes a summer of teenage lust,
violence, and a search for new entertainment. Never far away is Chris's
younger sister, Tammy, who plays spy to the events that will change the lives
of her family and town forever. Joyland is a novel about the impossibility of
knowing the future. Schultz bring the Cold War home in a novel set to the
digital pulse of video games and the echoes of hair metal. Joyland is
illustrated throughout by graphic novelist Nate Powell, whose work has been
praised by Sin City creator Frank Miller as "observant, intimate cartooning
[that] surgically cuts to the bone."
