Resumen del Editor

Buckle up! It's gonna be a bumpy ride.

The glowing eyes of a malevolent creature you can’t fully see. A sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach. The lurking dread that things are not as they should be. All this while driving down the road and dealing with idiot drivers. The road is a perilous place to be, but nowhere near as hazardous as what lurks just out of sight.

Driving a truck for a living can be treacherous. Sometimes peril comes from unexpected places. Strange and legendary creatures roam the woods not far from the hustling and bustling of the well-traveled roads. From Bigfoot, to Wendigo, to ghosts, to skinwalkers, to cultists, to aliens, these ten tales tell stories of suspense and terror for the poor souls who had the misfortune of falling into the clutches of these supernatural beings. However, as menacing as these creatures are, sometimes the most savage is man.

Whatever you do, don’t leave the road.

I was disappointed with this title

I understand the voice was AI, but a little effort in post production would have gone a long way. Taking the time to insert some sort of break between stories would have helped. There were a few times I couldn’t tell we had turned on to a different story until several paragraphs in. And for a book that specifies truck drivers only one story actually involved a tractor trailer. The rest were box trucks, which I guess are still considered truck drivers, but the author has several opportunities to write better stories with tractor trailers. Could have the characters run out of working hours on a mountain pass and park on the side of the road. Could have a blowout in the middle of the desert that doesn’t cause the truck to crash, but still prevents it from moving. Hopefully the author returns to this topic! I’ll be giving some of their other titles a listen.
