The Year of the Geek is a fascinating look into geek culture. Each day will tell a different story from the sci-fi universe, from famous franchises and figures such as Star Wars , The Matrix, Peter Jackson and Luc Besson, to lesser known stories, including the French cult classic City of Lost Children , the Japanese anime Akira and bestselling German novelist, Marcus Heitz.   With text written by self-confessed geek James Clarke and accompanied by 100 infographics that have been specially commissioned for this book, The Year of the Geek celebrates all things geek in a new and intriguing way.
