The Magic Shop Audiobook Edition
After a failed attempt with my first narrator, The Magic Shop is finally going to come to life in audiobook form, and I couldn’t be more ecstatic! The talented Steve Barnes, my narrator for The Codex, came back for another go with The Magic Shop. I just finished listening to and approving the whole production, and I am just astounded at all the character voices Steve was able to pull off (this includes various magical creatures.) It’s surreal listening to someone else not only read, but act out your writing. I know that sounds cliché, but that’s how it truly feels. This is an especially
satisfying moment for me because I tried to bring the book to life once before, and when the narrator abandoned the project, I thought it might never see the light of day.
But we persevered!
According to Amazon, the audio version of The Magic Shop clocked in at 11 hours and 29 minutes. That’s a whole lot of listening time. Apparently that’s what 512 pages translates to. 🙂
Below I’ve included a retail sample of The Magic Shop for you to listen to, and the table of contents so you can get a sense of the book contents. Here’s a link to the Goodreads page in case you want to read some of the reviews.
The audiobook should be out on audible within the next couple of weeks. It’s likely that I’ll be running some contests for free download codes, so keep your eyes open if you’re interested!
