"It" On Audio Book

[RocketMan]

The readers have been announced for the next slew of King audiobooks, and Steven Weber will be reading It. I think it's a good but not perfect choice.

The other choices are quite good as well, especially Bronson Pinchot reading The Eyes of the Dragon and Edward Herrmann reading The Tommyknockers.

Here's hoping The Stand will be among the next batch of King audiobooks. (Maybe an actor from the miniseries could read it? I guess Gary Sinise or Rob Lowe are too high-profile, so I'm thinking Matt Frewer.)

Ms. Mod is it true Steven Weber will read It? And those other choices?

Man i was really hoping Tim Curry would read IT. He did an awesome job on the Series of Unfortunate Events series

By the way where did you read this RocketMan

That's my understanding. I'll have to check with Penguin to confirm the other readers but many of the names look familiar from the list that Steve approved as his reader choices.

Actually, I did some detective work and have three sources.

First, I visited Penguin's website and simply searched for the audiobooks. The text didn't mention the readers, but some of the covers were up, and when I enlarged them I was able to make out the names. Some covers, however, were missing, and those included It.

Then I saw that Audiobooks today made the following announcement: http://audiobookstoday.blogspot.com/...w-release.html
This mentions all the books and all the readers, but not who's doing what.

Finally, one of the readers themselves - Grover Gardner - twittered the final line-up: http://twitter.com/GroverGardner

So there you go.

Any idea when that next batch might be coming ?

they are not legal i don't think, all I *think* I know is that the mp3's are downloaded from torrent sites and programs like lime wire. and besides them selling something thats out there for *free*, i'm pretty sure the versions there selling are copies from audibooks intended for legally blind persons' only.

Got mine on Ioffer and listened to IT about 3 times already. It's read by Chuck Benson and it's amazing. Great way to pass the time at work.
