The Secret History of Twin Peaks
As Jerry suggested i am creating a new thread for the discussion.Also if anyone can post all the 42 pages,it would be good
Re: Itunes Leaked Pages(Spoilers)
I got as far as the first Lewis and Clark journal entry and then stopped myself from going further. There is no way that a digital version of this book will be even 1% as good as a physical edition.
To be honest, at first glance, it's as expected. A compiled dossier has been found (which we know) and the book acts as that dossier. I've no idea what happens after the journal entries and I will try my utmost hardest to keep the mystery alive for another 3 weeks.
By the way, it looks ace. Beyond ace. My heart was fluttering at the sight of the napkin diamond symbols on the edge of the dossier.
This book deserves some coffee, pie and some alone time. Not a preview sample downloaded to an iPhone while at work.

Re: Itunes Leaked Pages(Spoilers)
Agree with you. Not meant as a digital book. I read the whole thing and it's way toooo complex. Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Illuminati, Silent man, the ring. Way too complex for me to process. I wonder who agent Tp is

Re: Itunes Leaked Pages (Secret History) (Spoilers)
Thanks so much for this Jerry. Just need to get home from work and sit and read it now.
Maybe an idea to change the title of this thread and just make it a general spoiler thread for the book?

Re: Itunes Leaked Pages (Secret History) (Spoilers)
Thanks a million, Jerry!
Already mentions of Lodge spirits (which could possibly even include "the hooded figure" and "silent man"; the Guardian and BOB?), the ring and UFOs as we all suspected. But it's interesting how gold and alchemy have shown up again — so much so that I don't think it's a coincidence anymore and will definitely factor into season 3 and possibly even the rest of the book somehow.
That said, I'm a bit put off by the Masons/Illuminati mentions, since it seems such an obvious connection/correlation with the term "lodges". One of things I loved after watching Twin Peaks the first time around was realising it wasn't "lodges" = Illuminati as you'd expect (heck, neither were even mentioned), and there was a richer mythology. But I have every faith in Mark so I'm not going to criticise it too much yet without having read the rest.
Also, have they retconned the original series to 1991 as page 7 suggests, or could it be another crime we don't know about yet? And will the redacted names appear in the actual book or remain blacked out?
Either way, this was the perfect amount to release as a sample — not too revealing, but just enough to tide us over. Needless to say, I'm pumped.

Re: The Secret History of Twin Peaks (SPOILERS)
What a day to work from home. Rarely am I in on breaking news. (was just praying that poster's phone stayed charged!)
Agree it was just the perfect amount.
For me the mysterious force Franklin latched onto hit the hardest. Love the electricity connection in all my fave shows (see name) and movies like Prestige.
It's got a little Founding Fathers stuff going on, love works of fiction based in historically relevant settings.

Re: The Secret History of Twin Peaks (SPOILERS)
Really glad I read that. I don't feel too spoiled and it has whet my appetite for when the book is released in 3 weeks. Not that my appetite needed much more whetting, but you know what I mean...
And yeah, it's the historical links to spiritual forces and the appearance of the ring that has really captured my imagination. The fact that such high ranking historical figures have been looking into these matters suggest that this will continue as the book goes on throughout the years and gives basis to the second season storyline of the US airforce continuing to monitor the land below Twin Peaks.
It just makes me wonder how all these issues will play out in the show. Or even if they will. This could just be all non-necessary background information which serves to simply expand the universe.

Re: Itunes Leaked Pages (Secret History) (Spoilers)
Hmmm... I haven't seen the rest of the book, but I have talked to someone who has- and they confirmed that the book does NOT retcon the original series date to 1991. That it does indeed (thankfully) remain 1989. So I would guess this reference to 1991 is a different incident(?)Cerulean wrote:Also, have they retconned the original series to 1991 as page 7 suggests, or could it be another crime we don't know about yet?
Also, the dates of Cole's documents place the current events in 2016- not 2014. So I guess its been 27 years since the series events?

Is Agent TP the Naomi Watts character?

Re: The Secret History of Twin Peaks (SPOILERS)
My main concern is who is the agent assigned to the case and who is Agent T..... P.....?

Thanks a lot Jerry! It was a solid tease before we actually get the book in our hands! ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
