Robert E Howard and Lovecraft are shipping!

Hey y'all, I'm back blogging ... with my luck it will go out of style now.

First,
Shadow Kingdoms, a collection of stories by Robert E. Howard is now shipping. It is a 5 CD set that includes King Kull and Solomon Kane stories. The cover features Ken Kelley artwork.

Second,
The Dark Worlds of H. P. Lovecraft Volume 5 is shipping. It is a 3 CD set featuring The Thing on the Doorstep, Haunter of the Dark and The Lurking Fear. I think that it is our best Lovecraft work to date.

check them out at www.audiorealms.com

We have started Michael Moorcock's The Weird of the White Wolf and should have the voicework done in about 2 weeks. We have a new reader named Bob Barnes who is replacing Jeff West. His voice characterizations are incredibly distinct and have more personality than before. I should be posting a sample along with the cover art in about a week. We will be offering something special inside, either a bonus CD or a booklet for people that purchase it from our website. I will make that announcement in about a week as well. As usual Dalmazio Frau has done a fantastic piece for the cover.

Well, that's it for now, I have been working too many hours in the past few weeks so I am taking my wife out on a date tonight. I am also taking the weekend off to see my daughter ride in a horse show.

Be Cool
Fred

Any word on getting these (and your other missing titles) on audible?

Hi Jay,
I have a call in to Audible right now and am waiting (albeit with patience running out) to hear back from them.
We are working on alternative download sites right now as well to hopefully avoid this in the future.

Hi Fred,

I've been a long time customer of Audible, and it's where I get the majority of may audiobooks, but I've had frustrating experiences in the past (as a customer). Hopefully you are able to get it worked out.

Are the ISBN numbers for your audiobooks listed anywhere? I'll gladly post content requests for them from my account (customer requests seem to be taken very seriously, or at least they were a few years ago).

Keep me posted!

I tried to email you but it seems your server is rejecting my provider. At any rate, my name is Toren Atkinson and I'm the singer for the HPL band The Darkest of the Hillside Thickets. I'm plugging your HPL CDs in the forthcoming newsletter, the release of which will coincide with the release of our new album "The Shadow Out of Tim" in a couple of weeks. Thought you might like to know! Also I'm actually a voiceover artist too (with my own studio) and an illustrator, so if you ever need anything, let me know!

It's been a while. Any updates?

Fred Godsmark said...

Hi Jay,
Sorry that there have been no updates for a bit ... it is a long story.
We do have big things going on, and I plan to do a large update in about a week. We are moving our servers this week and when they are done there will also be new product going up over about a 2 week period.
The biggest news that I can comment about is that our own download site www.theaudiobookshop.com is running and has most of our products up for download. We will be doing a launch in a week or so.
I can't say much else, but stay tuned and thanks for all of the support.
Fred

Hey Fred,

Glad to here things are moving. The download site looks interesting. I'll definitely be trying it out

Hi Fred. Is there any update on the People of the Black Circle? I'm enjoying Shadow Kingdoms very much, and would love to hear some more REH. Thanks.
