Actually, volumes 1-6! are up.
That’s a lot of audio! Yippee!
Audible.com has a sub-category of Hugo winners, but CYTEEN and DOWNBELOW STATION are not listed there. Is there anything your Loyal Readers can (or should) do to rectify this heinous oversight?
Thanks—I just dropped them a note on their ‘product suggestions’ link under Contact Us. You might do the same.
Is there a way for Audible to give recommendations on favorite authors? Each time I log in, they give recommendations. I’d think, given my purchases, they’d see I really like a certain cerise / sakura sort of individual’s books, but they aren’t showing the others as recommendations.
Next month, I’ll be buying the second trilogy.
I’d intended to read in Invader last night, but wound up listening to the first three chapters of Cuckoo’s Egg instead. Though the reader reads it differently than how my internal voice did, I’m enjoying it. The reader is doing a good job, including handling the alien words.
I’d listened to just the first few pages of Pride of Chanur, and the woman narrator suits it pretty well. She has an authoritative alto, which the hani need to carry of their characters. (I’ve always imagined the women of the Pride with mostly low to high altos, except Hilfy as soprano. Na Khym, I imagine with a very, very deep bass, and na Hallan with a tenor or baritone. Tully, I’d expect is a tenor. — The stsho, very quiet, something like the Andorians in TOS, almost lisping, very keen on going by formalities and orderliness and face. The kif, very rodent-like, usually cultured, always and terribly fierce. The mahendo’sat, somewhere between (Asian) Indian and Chinese pidgin traders, prone to simian boisterousness, not quite in a human fashion, though. The knnn singing, very electronic or musical, and not whale-song-like. T’ca matrix-speech, some sort of subtle computer sound effect accompanying the monitor, possibly voiced by speech synthesis. But I’d guess the computer translator tapes use actual recorded voices or very good quality automated voices. Though I’d guess for the human-language tapes, it’s primarily Tully’s voice, with things thrown in from Hilfy, Pyanfar, and otehrs.)
Anyway, yes, I’m enjoying the audiobooks.
Pet Peeve: I really wish audiobooks had chapter markers and bookmarks, so you could move easily to a place in the audio. Maybe act/scene or section markers too. For that matter, it would be great if one could have the text and audio simultaneously available, with the *option* to follow along with the voice or not, as desired. (Sometimes, you might want it to follow. Other times, you might want the text or the audio but at your own pace, not both together.)
Are they DRM free? Or perhaps more to the point, will they play on my Android phone?
I’ve never bought an audio-book before but if I can put the MP3′s on my phone, it’d be a great way to enjoy my daily bus rides to and from work.
aaaaand a little wandering through the Help section of Audible says that YES, there is an Android app. w00t!
Good, good. This is new territory for me, too…
horay, thry are coming fast and furious now! I just finished listening to Downbelow Station … it’s interesting, I have read it several times, but the reading allows new angles and insights.
I am so excited about all the audio books, I have read them over and over but it is a different experience to hear them read, and another way to support my favorite author!!! I am going to have to get them all. I remember searching and seeing no books of yours, then it was Cyteen, and then Downbelow Station, NOW there are 22 on there!!! WOOO HOOOOOO
