Hey friends! At long last, the fourth and final instalment in the Tales from the Gas Station series is available as a fully immersive audio experience! Performed by dozens of voice actors, with scoring, music, and sound effects to bring the world of the gas station to life. If you've been waiting for this, thank you for your patience. This one took a lot of time and effort, but I honestly think it was worth the wait.
Quick FAQ:
Q. How is this different from the audiobooks that were released several years ago?
A. The "Theatrical Edition" audiobooks have an entire cast of voice actors, with nearly every character played by their own designated performer. You can check out the whole cast at this link. The theatrical editions also contain a musical score, including original music by the legendary Myuu, as well as foley and other effects. There are also a few small additions to the text in the theatrical audiobook versions.
Q. What's the best way to listen to the theatrical audiobooks?
A. These books went through testing on myriad headset and speaker options to guarantee that you'll have a quality experience no matter how you enjoy your audiobook. The better your headphones, the crisper the sounds of bones breaking and guts squishing.
Q. Are these books available anywhere other than Audible/iTunes?
A. As of right now, no. I'm tied up in a multi-year exclusivity contract with Audible. It's a whole thing. I apologize for any inconvenience.
Q. I prefer the non-theatrical versions of the audiobooks that were narrated by Mr. Creepypasta. Should I leave a bad review for the new theatrical versions?
A. OHMYGOD PLEASE DON'T DO THAT! If you prefer Mr. Creepypasta's narrations, that's totally fine. The audiobooks he recorded are still available on Audible and iTunes. I promise, review bombing the new version does not help. If anything, it makes the algorithm less likely to recommend any of my titles (including the MCP collaborations) to potential new listeners.
Q. Why did you take the MCP versions of the audiobook off of Audible?
A. I didn't. I assure you, they're still available.
Q. What's the best way to support you?
A. If you like my stuff, tell your friends. Word of mouth (and a good review) are absolutely invaluable to authors like me.
Q. Will there be another book in the "Tales from the Gas Station" series?
A. Maybe. I don't know. Anything's possible.
Great to see you are still at it. Tales from the gas station was the first book I have ever read outside of school. I then proceeded to buy all 4 and read them. I just loved how insaine it got. Reading it ironically was best for me even though it genuenly is a good story. Also as a Mexican I love how many hispanic names are in the book. Made me look up if you were hispanic, but judging by ur photo you are not. :(
I love just how weird this whole series is and I've really enjoyed the full cast performance.
Thank you for working with such talanted people
