    Unhappy Audio Books

    Hi all, I'm new to the forum and look forward to being here . I am an avid fan of SK and I have every single one of his books and almost all of his films. Due to severe osteoarthritis in my hands I have turned to audio books and now wish to have this full collection too. Unfortunately there are two audio books that are only sold in the US, Danse Macabre and On Writing, and this is very frustrating for his UK fans. We feel a bit prejudiced against, especially when it should be easy to buy them from Amazon or Audible. They are not available in the UK versions of these .

    I also found, when collecting his movies, that a couple of them were not available to buy in the UK either, namely Little Boy Blue and The Tommyknockers. Both my movie and audio book collections will now be incomplete unless I can buy these and I feel a bit peeved at this . Steve has a massive following in the UK so why can we not buy his products?

    Now, I could easily get all these things via illegal torrents, but I don't want to do that. Steve has given me many years of pleasure with his works and I do not wish to "steal" from him just because I'm struggling to complete my collections.

    Please, please Steve, if you ever read any of these forums please release the said items for sale in the UK. I would be ever so grateful .

    That's my rant and my request over for now lol

    Stephen isn't restricting the sale of these formats. I will contact Hodder & Stoughton to see why those two titles are not available and if they will be in the future and get back to you here.

    Little Boy Blue is not one of Stephen's movies. I don't know why Tommyknockers is not distributed there. Has anyone else had any luck finding that one?
