New Wolfe Audiobooks

Just wanted to let everyone know that Audible.com has all four New Sun Books (with the exception of Urth of the New Sun, that is) in audio format. They were just released in early December and are read by a guy named John Davis. The words seem to be pronounced correctly this time and the reading overall is really good. High quality audio as well. Check them out.

Sigh. Audible--big fat downloads. Which doesn't work for those of us still on dial-up. Dang.

I hate to say it, but this narrator pales in comparison with the American Library for the Blind's narrator, Roy Avers. I've been so excited for a version that doesn't have all sorts of background noise, but listening to the sample at Audible, I'm disappointed. This guy makes it all sound so flat and wooden. too bad. ~Witz
