Amazon Audible Books

Well, it was make my mind up time yet again!

I’ve been thinking about this one for quite a while having seen the film on DVD, absolutely sumptuous!

I’d have loved to have seen it on the big screen.
Anyway, getting back to the point I’m sure this will be worth listening to :+1:

Having being inspired by an image on Bruce’s Good Morning topic yesterday I really wanted to find out some more about the antihero that was Ned Kelly.

Not only about the man himself but the seemingly fascinating backdrop, transportation and what was going on in Australia at the time.

This should fit the bill! I have cancelled my Amazon Audible subscription having a bit of a backlog to listen to, time to renew :wink:

Poor old Ned Kelly’s on the back burner. I bought this one on audible a while back now. I’m in the mood for a sedan chair trip or two through Georgian London.

An enjoyable listen so far, for anyone that grew up and worked in London an absolute must!
I’m not suggesting that I grew up in Georgian times I hasten to add ! :open_mouth:

I’ll look out for that. :smiley:

I’ve recently discovered the joys of audiobooks, I borrow books from Libby, return them after a page or two if the narrator doesn’t hold my attention. But some are good:

Genre Satire Read by Rory Kinnear, great actor.

Genre Parody Read by Linda Hamilton. Perfect for the part, as an ex drinker, heavy smoking American cop.

Yes i have listened to their books for a few years now. Its good to listen to sample first as the storyline maybe good but take into account the voice of narrator sometimes may be to your liking. So listening to sample is a great way of solving same.
Well worth try the free sample.
Enjoy

That’s so true what you say about the voice of the narrator Mags. I’ve listened to one or two samples of books that I’ve been interested in and the voice thing just wasn’t going to work for me. There was nothing essentially wrong with them, it just wasn’t going to click!

I tried listening to an audiobook about WWII partisans that was narrated by a gentile, sweet-voiced woman. It just didn’t work! :rofl:
