This is my current favourite - Narrated by Patrick Tull. I'm currently on Treason's Harbour.

Ya gotta do, what ya gotta do I understand what you mean to be honest, but sometimes it's better that wayWouldn't that be read in a robotic/synthetic voice? Part of the value of Audible is when they have good narrators who add to the characters/emotion.

Hi guys,
I started a 30 day audible trial and nearly finished the book I chose. I was under the assumption that £7.99 a month allowed me to pick and choose whatever book I wanted but it sounds like this isn't the case. If I get one credit a month, how do I pay for another book?
You can either buy 3 extra credits for £17 - https://www.audible.co.uk/extra-credits
Or, you can buy the books direct through their web site, Amazon, or the app. You can use any payment method you've got linked up in Amazon.

Also keep an eye open for the sales you get access to as a member (£3 a title seems to happen once a month or so for a couple of hundred titles), 2 for 1 offers and if you keep an eye on the kindle offers you can potentially pick up an ebook for £1 then add the audible version for £3-5 as they discount the audible cash price if you have the ebookThank you, I've listened to this first book within a week so I'm guessing the more expensive sub might make sense for me.

@[FnG]magnolia I’ve nearly finished 11-22-63 and want more Wasson. I’ve read some Ellroy but I can’t find Ellroy/Wasson combinations on Audible. Am I a half-wit?The one that turned me on to audio books was:
"11-22-63
One of the more recent Stephen King audiobooks on this list, 11-22-63 is King’s sci-fi alternate history novel in which Jake Epping, a 35-year-old English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine, goes back in time to stop the Kennedy assassination. 11-22-63 is consistently praised for its story, its meticulous research, and Craig Wasson’s awesome narration. This one clocks in at 30 hours and 40 minutes, which at this point in the list probably feels like nothing to you. You got this."
He's very, very good. He's also done some James Ellroy and John Grisham work so one out of two isn't bad.
If you want a superb series of audiobooks. Then I have 3 words for you.
The Bobiverse series.

I’ll be trying to keep this page up to date with the current status of my projects. Check here for updates.
As of 2019-12-02
I’ve now finished writing, and I’ve handed the manuscripts to my editor. The final titles will be:
Heaven’s River – Part 1 – The Search for Bender
Heaven’s River – Part 2 – Perverse Instantiations
I’ve mentioned this before, but this is how the schedule goes:
The editing process consists of a set of back-and-forths that could take weeks up to a couple of months, depending on schedules. Then it goes into production, which means Ray records it and the post-production people do their magic. Then we establish a publishing date.
My intention is to release the two books a month apart, although Audible might have something to say about that. My agent would like to see them released at the same time. Right now, I’m thinking first half of 2020. I’m hoping spring, but as mentioned before, my estimating sucks. This project has taught me, though, that I need more discipline in my writing, so I’m going to start imposing deadlines on myself. My intention is to produce a new book every six to eight months for the next little while.
I think what you've just described is an audio drama, or radio playI've been listening to Jo Nesbo's "The Thirst". I think it may be the unfamiliar Norwegian streets, towns, names etc.. but it got me thinking that as well as a good narrator, the character's lines could be acted out by other actors which would avoid the male narrator trying to do different voices for everyone, including the females.
Obviously it would be more costly to produce.
