Gods and Warriors audio books?

Ask Michelle Anything

Felicity writes…

Hi Michelle,

I've LOVED listening to the Chronicles of Ancient Darkness series with my daughter on audible. We were rather at a loss when we didn't have Torak and Renn in our lives!

We discovered the first book in the Gods and Warriors series, which again we have really enjoyed listening to. Will an of the other books be published on Audible as an audio book?

Best wishes,

Felicity

Michelle Replies…

Deare Felicity, I’m so glad that you enjoyed listening to Ian McKellen’s superb recordings of the Chronicles of Ancient Darkness.  I’m afraid, though, that after recording the first in the Gods and Warriors series, Puffin decided not to record any more audiobooks in the series.  That decision is of course up to them, although I do think it’s a pity; but there we are.  Still, returning to all things Wolf Brother, it’s terrific that Ian was kind enough to record the three sequels to the original six books in the Chronicles of Ancient Darkness – so that we have his marvellous performances of all nine books.   With best wishes, Michelle

An experience like no other. From a writer like no other...

Successfully published as an adult author, the Chronicles of Ancient Darkness (“Wolf Brother”) were her first books for younger readers, followed by her brilliant 5-part series set in the bronze age, Gods and Warriors. On the adult side, her first ghost story, Dark Matter, was a UK bestseller and won massive praise from reviewers and readers alike, as did her second ghost story, Thin Air.
