Featured Promotion: At The Earth’s Core and The House On The Borderland

Featured Promotion

I’ve put up a couple of new ads on the top right of the website. They’re for the latest projects by two excellent audiobook narrators:

The House On The Borderland by William Hope Hodgson – READ BY WAYNE JUNE

and

At The Earth’s Core by Edgar Rice Burroughs – READ BY DAVID STIFEL

Both David and Wayne have taken public domain novels and made them into wondrous unabridged audiobooks. Both narrators are consummate professionals, as well as being two really cool dudes who love the stuff they’re recording.

Both have also made their audiobooks available for FREE (Stifel podcasts his audiobooks and June streams them).

I’ve heard both novels, and I can heartily recommend them to you. In fact, both The House On The Borderland by William Hope Hodgson and At The Earth’s Core by Edgar Rice Burroughs are the subject of individual upcoming readalongs for The SFFaudio Podcast!

Click on through – and if you can afford it, please consider buying their audiobooks. These guys are truly awesome, I consider their audiobooks the definite editions, and their work is absolutely worth supporting.

Lit2GoI’ve been looking for an audio copy of this wonderful 5,000 word essay, and I’ve just found it. In this 27 minute long reading of The Philosophy Of Composition Edgar Allan Poe explains the creation of The Raven – showing the necessity of all of the components of the poem – and in the process, explaining what’s wrong with most fiction – Poe argues that most composition (poetry and prose) is typically aiming at the sufficient and not the necessary.
