Audiobook’s first month & an update on the hardcover edition

A Man Named Baskerville by Jim Nelson

Two pieces of news:

First, the audiobook of A Man Named Baskerville has been well-received. It currently holds seven 5-star reviews on Audible and sales have been brisk. MX Publishing released their top audiobook sellers for the month of February, and Baskerville ranked fourth out of 24. It’s the only novel in the top five (the rest being short story collections).

Second, the hardcover edition of Baskerville releases tomorrow! I’ve proofed this edition, and it’s exciting to see my story now available in hardback with a slipcover. If you prefer reading books this way, you can order your copy now.

The audiobook of A Man Named Baskerville dropped this week on Audible! I’m excited beyond words about this development—I’ve long wished to see one of my novels brought to audio format. On top of this good news, I see that the audiobook has already received a five-star rating from an early reader (listener?).

It’s narrated by Michael Langan, a seasoned voice talent with a long list of audio work under his belt. Michael specializes in Received Pronunciation voice-overs, which is vital for a book like Baskerville. The main character’s chameleon-like ability to mix with aristocracy and the upper-class hinges on the RP accent his father instilled in him when he was young. Michael exceeded all my expectations.

If you’ve been thinking about picking up A Man Named Baskerville and enjoy an audio experience, I hope you check out this new edition. A free sample is available, and Amazon Prime members enjoy special perks with Audible.
