We have some great news for the Thousands of you (literally) who’ve contacted us concerning the audio books! You will be pleased to know that Book One, Threads West is now being completed by the top voices in the country, including nationally renowned Jack Bair, and upon completion of Book One they will immediately begin readings of Book Two, Maps of Fate and Book Three, Uncomphgre. The audios are phenomenal!!!
All three audiobooks will be in your hands (ears :)) beginning with Book One at the end of April. Eight to ten weeks later Book Two will be delivered, followed by Book Three in another eight to ten weeks. Thereafter each audio book will be released slightly after its print release date, and after Book Five, Footsteps, more or less contemporaneously with the release of each print book.
For those of you who’ve managed to sit through the original audiobook – read by yours truly – laughing – thank you. I hope you enjoyed it. But, those CDs are now virtually gone. Literally, there’s only slightly under 200 left unsold in the world. The publishers pulled them off the shelves last fall and the only place to get them is the Publisher site (www.threadswestseries.com) and they are collectors items. It is the only book of the epic saga that has, or will be read by me, and there was a limited number (17,000 +/-) manufactured which are gone (except for the 200 +/-). They are 100% out-of-print. I kept five of the things, still wrapped and unopened, myself! Go here if you want to grab one of the last! www.threadswestseries.com
We are very excited about the audiobooks which will be available in a wide range of outlets from CD Baby, to Audible, to Amazon and at many truck stops around the country, and of course at Barnes & Noble, Hastings and other locations. They really are terrific.
So for those of you who want a collectors item (the CD’s read by lil’ole author, cowboy me) now would be the time to lasso one! Folks in the know have been scarfing them, up including yours truly :-). Keep your ears to the track (literally!) for some riveting audio excerpts up here on the site in the next few weeks, and keep your auditory senses alert for the fanfare which will accompany the release of the Book One Audio replacement, and the quick on its heels Book Two and Book Three audios, right in time for spring and summer driving!
