This book chronicles my 30-plus years in the transportation industry. Starting as a taxi driver during a transit strike, to driving Long Combination Vehicles, measuring over 120 feet long, weighing over 130,000 lbs. My travels have taken me to all of the lower 48 states, and all Canadian provinces except Newfoundland. Some of the stories are quite humorous, others are quite tragic. All have had a lasting effect on me.

Amid the dizzying rides, tantalizing games of chance, and fanciful attractions of a state fair, two teenage sweethearts on the cusp of life and love's pleasures find their way to a shadowy carnival tent brimming with curiosities. There, from the bizarre and enthralling Gypsy Mummy, a mechanized merchant of dreams and prognosticator of tomorrows, the young couple learns what fate promises for them. But fate, for Odd Thomas and Stormy Llewellyn, is something altogether different: full of dark corners, sharp edges, and things no seer or soothsayer could ever anticipate.

Predictable Prep Boy Meets Witchy Girl

Publisher's summary
In Annie Wilder's uniquely entertaining book, there are uncanny true tales of haunted highways, weird encounters, and legends of the road.
It may have happened to you; it’s happened to almost everyone who’s ever driven down a highway at night, or in the fog, or snow. Something suddenly appears: a flash of movement, a shadow... what was it? It could be, as the true stories in this book attest, a ghost.
These are true stories from the highways and byways of America. These first-hand accounts are as varied as the storytellers themselves—some are detailed and filled with the terror and suspense that made people feel they had to share what happened to them with others; others are brief and straightforward retellings of truly chilling events. Here is a chupacabra attack on the desert highway between L.A. and Las Vegas; ghost trains and soldiers; UFOs; the prom girl ghost of Alabama; a demon in Texas; and other accounts of the creepy, scary things that truckers and other drivers and passengers told to editor Annie Wilder.
With so many different stories, the Trucker Ghost Stories collection moves beyond the usual haunted house to offer stories to entice any ghost-story listener—and anyone who’s ever wondered.

In the five years since Julia last visited her aunt and uncle’s home in Malibu, her life has been turned upside down by her daughter’s death. She expects to find nothing more than peace and solitude as she house-sits with only her dog, Bonnie, for company. But she finds herself drawn to the handsome man who oversees the lemon orchard. Roberto expertly tends the trees, using the money to support his extended Mexican family. What connection could these two people share? The answer comes as Roberto reveals the heartbreaking story of his own loss – a pain Julia knows all too well, but for one striking difference: Roberto’s daughter was lost but never found. And despite the odds he cannot bear to give up hope.

Set in a beautiful but economically devastated Pennsylvania steel town, American Rust is a novel of the lost American dream and the desperation-as well as the acts of friendship, loyalty, and love-that arise from its loss. From local bars to train yards to prison, it is the story of two young men, bound to the town by family, responsibility, inertia, and the beauty around them, who dream of a future beyond the factories and abandoned homes.

Story
After the stunning historical novels The Clearing and The Missing, Tim Gautreaux now ranges freely through contemporary life with 12 new stories and eight from previous collections. Most are set in his beloved Louisiana, many hard by or on the Mississippi River, others in North Carolina, and even in midwinter Minnesota. But generally it's heat, humidity, and bugs that beset his people as they wrestle with affairs of the heart, matters of faith, and the pros and cons of tight-knit communities.

Story
A lyrical and authentic book that recounts the story of a border-town family in Brownsville, Texas in the 1980s, as each member of the family desperately tries to assimilate and escape life on the border to become "real" Americans, even at the expense of their shared family history. This is really un-mined territory in the memoir genre that gives in-depth insight into a previously unexplored corner of America.

Spooky and corny all rolled into one!
Is there anything you would change about this book?
The voice actors are horrible. Putting that out there first and foremost. It's absolutely the worst part of the book. For one, they overact! Everything is embellished to the point that even if you wanted to believe the ghost stories, the actors keep you from getting there! Secondly, they have both female and male voice actors, but don't bother to separate them by the gender of the storyteller, so you have some stories from male eyewitnesses read by the female actress and it again diminishes the fear factor. I don't mean to sound sexist, but if a story is written by "Larry the Truck Driver" and your voice actor is purposely trying to sound like him, then shouldn't it be a guy who sounds like Larry and not like "Linda the School Teacher?"
Would you recommend Trucker Ghost Stories to your friends? Why or why not?
Despite the horrible voice acting, while driving on the open road listening to this, I found myself keeping pace with trucks and cars in front of me. I didn't want to be left behind on the dark roads alone because some of these stories do give you the chills!
How could the performance have been better?
HAHAHA! OH MY GAWD! YES!!!!! The voice actors should give the money back that they got paid for acting in these stories! They did a dis-service to ghost storytellers around the world!
Was Trucker Ghost Stories worth the listening time?
Like I said, if you can overlook the voice actors, and you want something to keep you awake on the road while driving those long stretches of highways. Snag this book!
Any additional comments?
Ummmm, did I mention the voice acting was horrible?

Many Stories in the Book are Missing on This Version
This was a collection of unusual phenomena. There are a number of UFO tales in addition to the ghost stories. Several of the stories were featured on the excellent Destination America show Monsters and Mysteries in America. This audiobook used two narrators for the stories and both were wonderful.
That being said, this audiobook has a major flaw. There are a number of stories in the book that were NOT INCLUDED in this audiobook. It should be noted as abridged and not the full book. This was extremely annoying, trying to follow along reading wise to see stories excluded. The last section of Timeslips is short by 7 stories!

Best Ever
I bought this set at a truck stop a few years ago and fell in love with this collection of stories and so did my oldest son who is now 8. He now begs me to put it on all the time and we listen to it everything we take a trip to South Dakota. It's a great collection for road trips.

Don't listen to the complaints of Narrators. Bogus
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yeah man, It's some good old fashion creepy stories.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Trucker Ghost Stories?
Oh GOD the story about the kid the EMT had to take to a different hospital. It's disturbing and not even part of the "ghost" stories. It should be told to every teenager in America.
Have you listened to any of Tavia Gilbert and Peter Ganim ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
nope
What’s the most interesting tidbit you’ve picked up from this book?
Can't tell you because it will ruin the story.
Any additional comments?
I have 6 big brothers who are natural born story tellers. I used to fall asleep on the floor in their bedrooms after being lulled into dream land by fantastic tales of Aliens and CIA agents in trees...no wonder I put forensic files on to fall asleep to now...anyway if the wha wha about the narrators is making you hesitant to purchase just ignore it. If you don't pay attention to the brief mention of who submitted the story you would have no clue if was a different gender. If I recall it was only the first 4 stories anyway.
The only thing reviewers really should post is their love and hate list so you know who to listen to.
Love:Author Robert Cormier, Author David Sedaris, Author Augusten Bourroughs,Laura Hillenbrand. Book The Gargoyle, The posionwood bible, memoirs of a geisha, the help, water for elephants, The five people you meet in heaven, Ghost boy, The great book of amber, UNBROKEN (all time fav), A midnight clear...you get the idea.
Books I hate: A million Little pieces (or tiny or whatever). Here is my impression of that book, are you ready? This and that and this and this and he and she and and and and. Dear God the whole thing is one giant run-on sentence. 50 shades of sad horny housewife. The "author" could have been a 13 year old boy. Wicked. I bought this excited to read it, it is covered in dust after I couldn't force myself to read any more.I think I left off on the witch going down on the scarecrow or something.
Audible Books I love: World war Z (Alan Alda is in it!) Girl at the end of the world (best audible book i've heard and I wish it was a series) The body of Christopher Creed (Even though the narrator doesn't get teenage colloquialisms) Ghost boy, Warm Bodies (GREAT narrator but almost boring plot. No buyer's remorse though)
Audible Books I HATE: Following Christopher Creed. The narrator is horrible, just horrible. No segway from one character to another, all voiced the same without so much as a change in inflection. Can't follow along. The curious incident of the dead dog. Good narrator, horrible overkill of tangents designed to create empathy for the main character's disability.The entire plot, if written without the gaps of pages long tangents would be maybe 3 pages. Bad Games. Here is a QUOTE from this 5 star best seller "There was one undeniable truth (they) couldn't deny..." Need I say more? If that doesn't make you want to call the editor then ignore everything I have said, you and I have no business.
Lastly, my guilty pleasures audible books: The cat who series by Lillian whatever whatever. The books are stupid, the author tried too hard to show versatility in her writing and ends up being transparent in her overuse of a thesaurus, the narrator does a good job with different voices but rushed dialogue and the cat worship makes me roll my eyes BUT these are like meatloaf with gravy or macaroni and cheese. You know they are bad but they are so comforting and cozy you don't care. These are great insomnia listens. I hope that helps
