Back in May, I posted here that "Odric the Bold" had been accepted by the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped to be made into an audiobook available to anyone signed up to receive materials from NLS. I was told it would be at least six months.
Well, this morning on their website, what do I spy? "Odric the Bold" is now available as a downloadable audio book or to borrow by all NLS patrons!
Needless to say, I downloaded it right away. It's read by Jeff Allin, who is apparently a long-time actor and narrator of recorded books, and he does a great job. I should add that after that brief exchange for the collections manager at NLS, I had no further contact with them, and certainly had no input into who would record the book or how the characters should sound. But I'm very pleased with the results!
Thanks, NLS, and thanks, Jeff! You done good!
