Midworld Press...

[Ben Staad]

If I didn't mention this in the thread I did order Those Across the River. Anyone have an update on this title? Site says July of this year.

I've seen a few photos and they look on par with books from CD. Hard to be 100% sure though based on a few clicks.

How is the quality of their books? I am interest when they do John Dies at the End.

A lot of the humor is a bit dated in that one, from what I remember. I had listened to the audiobook and enjoyed that mainly due to the delivery of the narrator.

The second book is superior, in my opinion.

Haven't read the third one yet.

JDATE was awesome but not as well constructed as This Book is Full of Spiders. And maybe that's because JDATE was written originally as a web series without any real direction (?). Anyway, TBIFOS is the best in the series in my opinion. What the Hell Did I Just Read was awesome as well, but I'd have to say TBIFOS doesn't miss a beat.

I REALLY REALLY want a set, but they don't list it on the website and I don't see where to sign up for a newsletter.

Sometimes I think I’m the only person who didn’t much dig JOHN DIES AT THE END…which I admit was odd, given my affinity for Jeff Strand’s horror-humor work.

You are not alone. That book was a rather painful read for me.

Pargin decided to quite using the pseudonym as it doesn't serve any purpose anymore. Originally he did it to keep his writing (both fiction and for Cracked) separate from his day job/professional life. Now it doesn't matter, people know he's David Wong and writing is his professional life now.

[Sock Monkey]

So did a little searching and it looks like the fourth (?) John and Dave book is tentatively titled "David Wong Dies In This One" and will be published under Pargin's real name. So I'm assuming this is a shift to kill off the pseudonym. Hopefully this doesn't come back to haunt him a la THE DARK HALF.
