What if the greatest stories ever told were forged in the fires of a different creator? Welcome to In the Style Of..., an immersive short-form audio drama series that collides beloved literary classics with wildly unexpected authorial voices. In our premiere season, we journey to the shores of West Egg—but not the one you know. We’ve taken F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby and stripped away the jazz and the glitter, replacing it with the heavy, blood-soaked, mythic dread of pulp legend Robert E. Howard. Here, the Roaring Twenties are dead. Tom Buchanan is an apex warlord, the Valley of Ashes is a primordial wasteland, and Jay Gatsby is a doomed, fanatical acolyte reaching for a green light that burns with dark magic. A new chapter every day, for free, from Broadsword Studio.
