Dear Bridgette–

“Abridged” means the bloody-minded publisher chopped out huge (and necessary) chunks of the book. Don’t EVER listen to the abridged versions of my books; they make no sense whatever. Always get the UNabridged ones. Really.

I’m new to the whole audiobook thing, just finished listening to Outlander. My question is this, what is the difference between abridged and unabridged? I see it said so much but I’m not quite sure what it means. Thanks!

Dear Mick–

The license for the abridged version of A Breath of Snow and Ashes expires in 2014. At that point, we can (thank GOD) chop off all sales of the atrocious abridgement and can sell the UNabridged version anywhere. In the meantime, we’re struggling to make what accommodations we can to get the Unabridged version made available, as widely as we can. (We did manage to get it made available in the US, and–oddly enough–in South Africa (or so I’m told).) Don’t know about the UK, but I’ll ask and see what I can find out.

Hi Diana,

A Breathe of Snow and Ashes Unabridged is still not available on Audible in the UK, although it shows on the US site. Please could you ask Recorded Books and let us know when we can expect it ? I have owned An Echo in the Bone for some time and was excited to hear The Fiery Cross was out. But A Breathe of Snow and Ashes has still failed to appear on Audible in the UK….

Thanks,

Mick

Just did my weekly check on Audible UK for the unabridged version of The Fiery Cross and found it.

Yippee – Can’t wait to start listening to it. It said it was released last November but it certainly wasn’t available then. I checked on Monday and there was no sign of it. Hopefully we won’t have to wait much longer for book 6.

Hi to everyone looking for the unabridged version of Fiery Cross (outside of the US!)

Just again checked with Audible UK, and there it is: Fiery Cross, 55h 34′, UNABRIDGED, read by Davina Porter, release date 3/11/2o11. It appeared there only recently, but anyway – better late than never.

As this release date is about 10 years after the ABRIDGED version (8h 30′, 2/11/2001) , I am wondering how long we will have to wait for the UNABRIDGED version of A Breath Of Snow And Ashes, till Sept. 2015?
