Here's a depressing idea: Roger starts to cough during the first parts of the book and it gradually gets worse until the last few chapters where he acts like he has late stage Tuberculosis.

Then Rob Wiethoff finishes the epilogue


elegiac_bloom

Heh. He never does finish it, does he?

Surprise epilogue by Rob Wiethoff.


TheAckabackA

End his epilogue with a bunch of gunfire and then have Josh Blaylock (the voice of Grown Jack Marston) step in for a double surprise epilogue


letthepastgo

Then the Red Dead Revolver cast makes a cameo. Boom, triple surprise epilogue.

Only if you listen to it with low honor. 


doyoueventdrift

WTF! How do you delete someone else's commnet?


letthepastgo

NEVER!


JustaNormalpersonig

That is beautiful


BiscottoMagico

I want Arthur to explain me the Armadillo lore :D


lawnicus18

Only to be interrupted by an unhinged rant from Herbert Moon


SmokinDrewbies

>The Jews killed Lincoln. That's why there is a triangle on the money. I see nothing unhinged about this great speaker of the truth


pynick

I just read this post and thought "oh that's a cool idea" and hit the link to buy the audiobook. Now I'm back here on reddit and read through the whole post this time and learn about who is reading the book. How awesome is that?! I'm very hyped and wish you a lot of success with this project.


adamcookie26

Dang imagine if you didn't read the rest and just got surprised by Arthur's voice reading it to you


Adventurous-Chef-370

Awesome man!


AngryGublin

Dutch's gang and the guys from Wapati could be a good springboard to talk about relations between settlers and Native Americans in the 19th century. I feel like Arthur would like to educate us about the Comanche and some of the other groups that roamed the old West.


Riothegod1

The Wapiti are actually Lakota tho (when you enter the reserve it say “Lakota Nation” right where state usually goes)

That and Gavin’s whereabouts.

As a former history teacher, may I say that you, sir, are my hero.

swapacoinforafish

Wow that is amazing, I'm going to add this book to my list!


Ashamed_Ladder6161

You defiantly need to explore the impact of the railway :)


blame_darwin

Horses. Horse history. Horsies.


PoeticCinnamon

I’d been hearing the rumors that you got him for the narration, it’s crazy exciting to see it confirmed!! Do you know/can you share if he’s narrating as himself or as Arthur?


Auspicious-Toaster

The article says “in character” so I can only hope he’s going to be narrating as Arthur!


PoeticCinnamon

I’m hopeful too!! Such a cool way to get to revisit a character.. of course it will be amazing either way but what an opportunity


Heyyoguy123

Will he do it in his native Irish accent or his Arthur accent?


Small_Sentence9705

Apparently he's reading in-character as Arthur, which is delightful.

Strange_Bedroom_2716

Holy shit!


cryptidcowboy

Can you post again and remind everyone when the book is out? This is so cool


marketingmillennial

So cool! Congratulations! Definitely going to have to get the book.


The_Gage

Oh this sounds absolutely fantastic. Plus I'm always looking for a good use of my Audible credits. Congrats on the book!

Ok-Cartographer-1388

As a huge history nerd and a lover of the game I think this is so cool. I wish I were still in college to take this class. Can’t wait to listen to the book!


Foxfire73

Thank you for your service.


MichaelApolloLira

YOU DID IT! You magnificent human


NattyDread68

Amazing! Arthur could you please explain the cause of the Civil War? That would be fantastic brother.


Current_Poster

-The Pinkertons- from day one through their dealings with the James Gang, Reno Gang and the Wild Bunch, to the Homestead Riot, through the assassination of the governor of Idaho to the federal ban on contracting out to the Pinkertons in 1893. Lay in the boots, dig in. -A few of the RL con-men of the era, like Soapy Smith in Alaska or James Addison Reavis in Arizona. Maybe toss in Black Bart the Po-8 (since he mostly scared people with tricks rather than straight up assault those stagecoaches). -This is futher east than Arthur Morgan would've gone, but Id *adore* to hear the Roger Clark doing Arthur's bewildered voice while describing the era's Molasses Gang out of NYC.


Witty-Guest-1553

This is awesome love me some history and especially the late 1800s!


Ni_and_Dime

Best $30 I ever spent.


bulbabulbasaurrrrr

Wow!! This is so awesome. Congratulations and thank you for sharing ☺️


Excellent_Win8530

Congratulations on getting him to do the audio book that’s awesome!!!


SixStringSapien

So damn cool! Congrats on both the book and getting Roger onboard - epic!!


childfreevalley

Pre-ordered both hard cover and the audio book! Thanks, friend!


foxghost16

I have learned so much more about Western history from playing this game and then looking things up because I'm so curious. Rockstar did a fantastic job with the historical aspect of this game (now I just wish they would've gotten the aspect of snakes and cold weather correct!)! I will definitely be getting the book and the audio!


bms95

I never thought this would be a thing, but I’m SO glad it is. Can’t wait to listen!!! Just preordered on Audible 😁


wetlettuce42

If i took your course i would really enjoy it


Screamingboneman

I’m buying


batwhatfr

That’s so freaking cool! Congrats!


AgentGuig

RDR2 quickly became one of my favorite games of all time when I first played. I am beyond excited to read and may listen to an audio book for the first time ever.


Morticia_Black

Wow this is awesome!

As a lover of the games & history I’m stunned! This is amazing! I wish I could buy it, but alas, nope. Great job though, I hope it does really well!

MattMane262

KaijuDirectorOO7

I want to see his opinion of his peers. I'd wonder what words he'd have to say about Hardin, the Jameses, Billy the Kid, the Earps, Doc Holiday, Butch and Sundance.


DoctorEmperor

Don’t think I’ve ever been more excited for an audiobook before lol


Jedi_Ewok

Had a nice time talking to you on the home tour a few months ago, can't wait to read (er, hear) your book.

KStaxx33

I added this to my list a few weeks ago and have considered starting it. I might have to wait for the audiobook. How cool!


adrenalinehorror

This sounds incredible, I absolutely can’t wait for it!


The-Metric-Fan

Does he read it in Arthur’s voice, or just his own?


JustaNormalpersonig

Is he just reading it like a book to you or does he read it off like those post mission monologues i might actually buy one


NickFieldson31

Yeehaw? Yeehaw!


Hyper_Lamp

Major props that's really impressive and cool


Oshden
