DECEMBER 10-16, 2014: For the first time in (at least recent) memory, all four of my picks for the week come off the "never before in audio" list, with none of the books even being released this decade and some being well out of copyright in text, and all under some of the best narrators in the field. There's still more backlist audiobooks and even more concurrent new releases also out this week, from the 50-audiobook "The Saint" series in its mind-boggling entirety to David Drake's Skyripper to Jane Yolen

OCTOBER 8-14, 2014:  October continues to be a month of bountiful harvests in terms of audiobooks, as my first pass for picks came up with 16 titles to strongly consider. So! After the four picks, do check out the "also out this week" (and perhaps even the "also also out this week") listings. The "seen but not heard" titles include Julia Elliott's The Wilds, Blake Butler's 300,000,000, Beth Bernobich's The Time Roads, and Kerry Howley's Thrown, so there's certainly plenty to read if your ears get tired

MAY 7-13, 2014: A sequel I've been anticipating for the past year, a short stay on the "missing in audio" list for a book from one of my favorite authors, a post-apocalyptic horror, Huck Finn in the future, and a Weird West anthology headline a fairly quiet publishing week this week, at least compared to last week's haul, but by no means does that imply that there aren't more books worth checking out in the ALSO OUT listings as well. Those include (among others) Porochista Khakpour's The Last Illusion and
