Whew! It's April, and while some deals from March are still valid, here's this month's roundup of (mostly) new deals. [Editor's note: Since this series continues to draw some new readers/listeners who may be unfamiliar with Whispersync for Voice, in brief: after (or at the same time as) buying the Kindle edition you can add on the narration if an enabled Audible edition exists, often for a steep discount on even the member/credit price.]

I'll start with Monthly Deals for $3.99 or Less listings:

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

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

It feels like I just wrapped up a huge release week post two days ago, because I did. But so much has already come out since Wednesday that, well, I’d better post now because next week should have a huge list of new audiobooks as well. So here’s an “interlude” release week post.

Leading the list is the Peter Grant series by Ben Aaronovitch, all narrated by Kobna Holdbrook-Smith for Tantor Audio. The three books, Midnight Riot: Peter Grant, Book 1, Moon Over Soho: Peter Grant, Book 2, and Whispers Under
