FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PR Log (Press Release)Nov 18, 2009 – In honor of the recent U.S. release of a new recording of GOOD OMENS by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, read by Martin Jarvis, AudioFile's Editors have put together a Complete Listener's Guide to Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. The Listeners' Guide features exclusive conversations with four narrators of the authors' books—Martin Jarvis, Stephen Briggs, Nigel Planer, and George Guidall. The Listeners' Guide also includes select lists of our Editors' favorite Gaiman and Pratchett audiobooks. As part of this Editors' E-vent, listeners are invtied to discuss their favorite Gaiman and Pratchett audiobooks on AudioFile's Facebook page, http://www.facebook.com/audiofilemagazine.

AudioFile is also giving away A STUDY IN EMERALD, a story written and read by Neil Gaiman, courtesy of Harper Audio and Audible.com. The download is available to customers in the U.S. only through midnight on November 30.

AudioFile Editor Robin Whitten spoke with four narrators of Gaiman and Pratchett's audiobooks to get their behind-the-scenes perspectives. Martin Jarvis, narrator of the recently released U.S. version of GOOD OMENS, shares his secret to creating characters through the medium of his voice—and then gives a delightful demonstration. Stephen Briggs tells Whitten that it was Pratchett's sense of humor that initially drew him to Pratchett's work back in 1990, and he's been hooked ever since. Briggs narrates the most recent Pratchett audiobook release, UNSEEN ACADEMICALS. In addition to narrating many of Pratchett's Discworld books, actor Nigel Planer plays various roles in the popular UK television adaptations of that series. Planer describes the challenge and adrenaline rush of creating nearly 40 characters for each Pratchett book. George Guidall is an AudioFile Golden Voice and narrator of more than 900 audiobooks. He recalls the "incredible experience" of narrating Neil Gaiman's AMERICAN GODS and then reads a selection from that title.
