Coming soon: Jon & Lobo audiobooks!

I've learned quite recently that the good folks at Audible.com have purchased the audiobook rights to all five Jon and Lobo novels (the fifth being the upcoming No Going Back). I'm quite excited at the prospect of hearing these books.

Other than the fact of the purchase, however, I have very little data to offer you. My friend, Sam Montgomery-Blinn, broke the news on his SF audiobook blog. According to his contacts at Audible, the first four Jon and Lobo novels should appear in audiobook form by the end of March, with the fifth hitting about the same time as the print book (May 1). That would certainly be cool.

I have no clue who the narrator will be, nor will I get any voice in that selection process. Yes, I know that Neil Gaiman does, and I'm sure some other writers do, but I don't sell as well as Gaiman (though feel free to buy enough of my books to change that fact). I'll probably learn the narrator's identity when I first see the books come online.

As I said, though, I'm quite excited to hear these audiobooks. I've never had an audio version of any of my works, so I look forward to them. I hope you do, too.
