I believe the audio books are heavily edited which i'm not keen about, as are the Age of the Five books. Why edit them?? Harry potter audio books have not been edited. I can't help feeling that some of the story line will be lost.

I'm strongly against audio books. I love to be in my bedroom, with a book in my hand...and its smell, the pleasure of how it sounds when you turn pages...
Quite maniac, aren't I?

What I love about audio books (the unabridged versions) is that, when really tired, you can just play one and fall asleep to it. Also, they’re fantastic for long journeys when driving or on the train – they really do make the time go fast!

I never really listened to many audio books. I theory I've nothing against them (so long as they are unabridged) but sometimes I reckon the reader's voice doesn't work well for you and the book doesn't feel right because of it. I heard of clip of The Prisoner of Azkaban once and hated it, (I think Stephen Fry was reading them?) but it was ok for the narration but for the characters speaking it didn't work at all for me.

Hey guys! I just got my first audiobook of the Magician's Guild and I really really recommend it. I'm downloading the Novice right now!!

I also didn't like the narrator's voice in the beginning, but in truth he was a good reader and I really got to like him in the end! ^*No idea who he is though!!*^

I have tMG on audio CD. They aren't bad at all, and they aren't haevily edited. There miss out bits here and there though.
