The Rose Red Bride by Claire Delacroix, Blackstone audio edition

Another present in the mail yesterday!

This is the physical edition of The Rose Red Bride in audio, from Blackstone Audio. It’s available to libraries and also will be in physical distribution to bookstores. Use either the Downpour or the Blackstone link to order one, and change the option on the dropdown menu to CD’s. (It defaults to digital download.) It’s also interesting to me that Blackstone offers an audio rental option, through Downpour. Check that out on the Downpour product page!

The Blackstone Audio editions are also distributed to Barnes & Noble, so you can order them online from their site. The audio appears as another format option on the book product page – here’s the one for The Rose Red Bride at B&N.

Here’s a sample of the audiobook, narrated by Saskia Maarleveld, as well as the other buy links.

My audiobooks from this point forward will be distributed by Blackstone Audio. This means that in addition to being available from Amazon, Apple and Audible, and directly from Downpour (Blackstone’s direct-to-consumer portal), they’ll be available digitally from outlets like Barnes & Noble and Books-A-Million. It also means that they’ll be available in physical as well as digital formats. And, maybe best of all, it means that they’ll be available to libraries, through various portals including Blackstone Library, in both digital and physical formats. I’m pretty excited about this!

As well as my new audiobooks being distributed this way, the current ones are being transitioned. The first audiobooks to make the transition to Blackstone are The Beauty Bride, The Rose Red Bride and The Rogue. They’ll be available from Blackstone in August and are up for pre-order now on their portals. (They’re probably also available for pre-order on the various portals that Blackstone feeds.) Wyvern’s Mate will be the first new book that goes out through Blackstone from the outset.
