We published The Complete Darkness 2014: An Annual Review of Minnesota United FC in January 2015.
The first annual The Complete Darkness looks back at each match, each player, and the news of the year. We get an up-close and personal look at Assistant Carl Craig, insight into how the Loons built a Brazilian contingent, game reports, player profiles, and a statistical analysis of the tactics. Howler published an excerpt of the book, All the Roads We Have to Walk are Winding, a profile of Assistant Coach Carl Craig by Alex Schieferdecker.
