Level 26 is a series of three planned "digi-novels" written by Anthony E. Zuiker, creator of CSI. Level 26: Dark Origins, the first book, co-written with Duane Swierczynski, was released on September 8, 2009. The novel is unique in that it combines a traditional text book with online content, such as videos and other content called "cyberbridges", to "enhance" the reader's experience. At the end of every few chapters, readers are provided with a code with which they can go online to access the additional content.The second book is Dark Prophecy.
