Philip Reeve's story for Exeter Award-winning author Philip Reeve has written an exclusive short story called The Exeter Riddles for the Animated Exeter Festival. The book will be released as a limited edition hardback book (500 copies) with three special artisan leather-bound copies - with medieval-style illustrations by Sarah McIntyre, Joanna Radford, Sally Rich and Susannah Shaw - to be auctioned for charity. The Exeter Riddles is an example of innovative publishing. There will be an audio book for the city's Blind School and his story will also be used to create a street game called Time Winders, where players race against the clock through the streets (triggering animation projects) to halt the destruction of Exeter's historical time line. The game has been created by Slingshot, makers of the zombie video chase game, 2.8 Hours Later. Reeve will be running workshops during the festival and his story is also the inspiration for a theatrical finale to the festival by performance company Mischief La-Bas.
