DECEMBER 17-31, 2014: I went ahead and extended this pair of weeks one extra day to give a clean cutoff to 2014. It was a fantastic year of audiobooks (and of course Dave and I will be here with some best-of-the-year picks in due course) and 2015 looks every bit as packed as we consider a preview of what's to come. In the meantime, the last half of the last month of 2014 had some surprises, with all eight picks again coming off the "seen but not heard" listings -- though a few of them are from just a few

JUNE 11-17, 2014: There is an absolute avalanche of outstanding audio this week, comprised mostly of audiobooks we've been anticipating for a good while now, but led by a breathtaking surprise: Terry Bisson's 1993 collection Bears Discover Fire and Other Stories. There's high-end sf (Cibola Burn, The Long Mars, On the Steel Breeze), there's historically-set fantasy (The Quick), there's comedic fantasy (Spell or High Water) and urban fantasy (Shattered, Half-Off Ragnarok) and an sf/thriller hyrbid (A Better

Top 25 most-anticipated books of June 2014

Everyone has their own lists, but here’s ours: what we're most looking forward to this month, in chronological order of release, with audiobook information if we know about it. (I tried holding the list to 10 as I managed for last month's preview, but after a second pass cutting as much as I was close to happy with, I was still in the 30s. Trimming further to 25 was hard enough!)

NOVEMBER 27-DECEMBER 3, 2013: While there's still no sign of Nicola Griffith's Hild -- read like the wind, Ms. Flosnick! -- we still get another fantastic week of audiobooks, including the latest GRRM/Dozois anthology, a Kirkus year's-best-listed new standalone novel from Ian Tregillis, Helen Marshall's creepy ChiZine collection Hair Side, Flesh Side, and the Gemmell-winning epic fantasy Malice by John Gwynne. In the "also out" listings this week, even more epic fantasy than you can shake a stick at, space

SEPTEMBER 4-10, 2013: After closing the summer months with Jason Mott's debut The Returned (Brilliance Audio) and Ellen Kushner and Delia Sherman's 2003 novel The Fall of the Kings (Neil Gaiman Presents), the fall audiobook release schedule got off to a cracking start last week with early September releases of Margaret Atwood's MaddAddam (Random House Audio), Kim Stanley Robinson's Shaman (Hachette Audio), and Nancy Farmer's The Lord of Opium (Simon & Schuster Audio). This week brings western storytelling

Release Week: Rip-Off!, Mayan December, Bradley P. Beaulieu, Terry Goodkind's The First Confessor, and more

The middle of December brings some ear candy for the holiday season, including an all-star author/narrator anthology, the end of the world, secondary world fantasy, and quite a bit more. Still, with all that, my mind's on a "missing" audiobook, that for Jesse Bullington's The Folly of the World, my most-anticipated title this week. And at the bottom, details for another "Whispersync for Voice" price quirk, this time netting you both the Kindle and Audible formats of Richard Kadrey's Sandman Slim. (Sorry for
