Fans of Jason Segel will not be surprised to learn the 37-year-old actor, screenwriter and producer has a soft spot for freaks and geeks. In fact, it was NBC’s 1999 series “Freaks and Geeks” that introduced Segel to the world, along with co-stars and Judd Apatow cohorts Seth Rogen and James Franco. That low-rated, critically acclaimed show eventually morphed into a cult-TV touchstone, but Segel has stayed busy throughout, writing and starring in big-screen comedies such as “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” and 2011’s Oscar-winning “Muppets” reboot, all while remaining firmly in the public eye through a nine-year, 208-episode run as Marshall Eriksen on the CBS sitcom “How I Met Your Mother.” Fans might be surprised, however, to learn that Segel is also a successful author, having co-written the “Nightmares!” children’s book series with New York Times bestselling author Kristen Miller. Their latest collaboration, “Otherworld,” was published Tuesday by Random House Children’s Books and brings Segel to the Denver Marriott South at Park Meadows at 7 p.m.

    “End of Story,” by A. J. Finn (William Morrow) “End of Story,” by A. J. Finn (William Morrow) A. J. Finn’s “The Woman in the Window” was a huge best-seller. “End of Story” is destined to be, too. It’s a mystery more than a thriller, and a tightly crafted page-turner. Literary critic Nicky Hunter is a huge fan of mystery writer Sebastian Trapp.

  • It’s never too late to fall in love with Star Wars

    Editor’s note: This is part of The Know’s series, Staff Favorites. Each week, we offer our opinions on the best that Colorado has to offer for dining, shopping, entertainment, outdoor activities and more. We’ll also let you in on some hidden gems). Right now, fans of sci-fi/fantasy films are going ga-ga over “Dune: Part 2” (which certainly is gorgeous). But I’m here to sing the praises of another space opera. A young George Lucas talks with Anthony Daniels, who plays the robot C-3PO, for the film “Star Wars: A New Hope,” in 1977. I was a bit late jumping on the Star Wars bandwagon.
