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. _________________ "It would be easier for me to face the Ichani if I did not have to worry about what they might do to you if I fail.”

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! _________________ "It would be easier for me to face the Ichani if I did not have to worry about what they might do to you if I fail.”

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. _________________ "Strike a light or light a lantern!

Yeah i agree i didnt buy them but i bought The woman in black instesd as i couldnt find it in any shops i looked in. The man who is reading it out is really good as he gets the accents right and the voices right aswell. _________________ HEALING NOVICE

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!!*^ _________________ Love is something that develops, bursts with life and stays with us forever...

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. _________________ "Nothing. Amazing subject, that one. Produces such fascinating reactions in people."
