Why is this news? Didn’t this come out a long time ago?
I have TGC, but none of the others.

It’s news because it featured as a recommendation last weekend in a national, and because we don’t talk about the audio versions enough.

THANK YOU, IAN! I completely agree with you. Reading the book in and of itself it completely fantastic, but listening to the audiobook is another experience altogether. Sometimes I find myself really caught up in the story…and stop what I’m doing altogther…

That wasn’t to say I don’t thoroughly enjoy the audiobooks; I think they’re wonderful!

I loved it. I never thought it would be that good or that fun to “read” books this way but I’m glad I was proved wrong. A real treat.
