[masked-and-mean]

I would like to rectify a shrine to GraphicAudio.

If I’m not reading, I’m listening. And Oh. My. God. Do I love them❤️❤️❤️❤️

How they make everything “A movie in your mind”. All the sound effects, the actors, it’s.. amazing. Period.

A movie creates the pictures, and decides what will be shown. Words let’s you create them yourself (and frankly I like mine better) but with audiobooks with background music and the goddamn actors takes the experience to whole another level!!!! 

There is this one actor who make me.. just… 🤤🤤🤤 and every time I hear his voice makes me a puddle. Doesn’t matter if he is a bad guy who will die in 5 min, in my notes he is The Daddy.

I mean.

Xaden - Fourt Wing

Orion - The Demon Queen Trials

Micah - Crescent City

Lucien - ACOTAR

unnamed demon - The Harbinger

I meeeeean, just go and listen. Spread the word! Glory to GraphicAudio!!! Glory to GraphicAudio!!!

ACOTAR audiobook AU where everything's the same except Jurian is voiced by Gilbert Gottfried.

[enshrinedinspines]

So far the GraphicAudio version of The Way of Kings is so good

Only complaint so far is that sometimes the background noise/music is louder than the narration/talking

A Court of Thorns and Roses

by Sarah J. Mass / Graphic Audio part 1

Doing a re-read of these and the rest of the SJM universe with friends. I haven't read these since they first came out, so many of the details are blurred, and its a bit like reading it for the first time, with a new point of view!

As far as the graphic audio goes, this was a very narrative heavy section, so the graphic audio didn't add as much to the experience as I'd hoped. I'm looking forward to seeing how things go as we move forward in the series, and I'm curious to see who voices certain characters!

fuck. not Xaden being unbearably sexy and the most respectful person ever fucking hell.

they literally destroyed her entire room omg.

idk why I thought this book didn't have any spice... 😳🥵

he said the hottest fucking things ??

BOY HOW ARE YOU GOING TO SAY "don't fall for me" AND THEN CLEAN UP HER ROOM AND STAY THE NIGHT WITH HER AND CUDDLE HER AND LEAVE HER A JAR WITH VIOLETS IN IT HELLO?! HOW IS SHE SUPPOSED TO NOT FALL FOR YOU MY GUY???!

[blastlight]

i'm trying to listen to the non-GraphicAudio versions of The Murderbot Diaries, but I can't handle the inconsistencies in pacing and volume. sorry Kevin </3

[wulflynn]

When you feel hopeless, worthless, angry, depressed, like your world is falling apart around you and everything is lost, you find the ACOTAR books. Then you listen to the Dramatized Adaptations constantly over and over just to keep on truckin' on. My headset is on nearly every moment of every day and my fiance makes fun of me for it but, whatevs.

[artethdilaf]

Hrathen kicking him out, moving into Fjon’s room and then throwing out all his shit WHILE HE’S STILL THERE will never not be funny

[mysterycitrus]

while dick grayson is notoriously hyperfocused on work and will stay at a computer terminal for days at a time (re titans 99) i do think in his civilian life he’d be a bit too fidgety to sit and be like…. a voracious reader. like he definitely enjoys it but there’s always something else to do. his leg goes to sleep and he takes a walk around the apartment and then gets distracted reorganising his gear, etc. with that in mind i feel he’d be super into audiobooks. he’d use the shit outta libby. he’s a huge fan of those big cast performances, like they did for sandman or any graphicaudio production. i do feel he is a calvin and hobbes fiend, however

[zenerrocksmc]

Hey! Just letting everyone know that the GraphicAudio version (full VA cast, music and sound effects) of the Murderbot Diaries (ASR) as Audiobooks is up for listening completely now. They have (what I think is) a sped up sample on the purchase page for it as well for anyone interested!

It is currently $11USD for anyone interested!

[avidabsurdist]

Every time a new Brandon Sanderson book is released everyone updates their suggested reading order but all you need is the patience to be uninformed and enjoy the book!

But depending on your preference the best story to start with will be different.

If you want a crash course on the basics of The Cosmere's magic physics (Aka Investiture) so you can hypothesize on how other magic works I suggest the short story "The Emperor's Soul" as a starting point, it gives a solid overview of Realmic theory and covers Identity (a rather difficult idea to communicate) very effectively. (this is the start of the PhD route)

If you want something that's more like a traditional fairy tale as an intro I suggest Tress Of the Emerald Sea, which doesn't require a PhD in the shattering to understand. (though if you're going the PhD route I suggest reading this one later because if you're questioning the magic it's a far more confusing one)

Warbreaker is a good middle ground, if you're going the PhD route I suggest this second (it covers Intention which "The Emperor's Soul" doesn't), It's not a bad starting place either, it was my first book in The Cosmere and it's up for free on The Sand-Man's website. It's also all-around an excellent book.

I'm going to be (a tad) controversial and say I enjoy Elantris, it's certainly not Brando-Sando's best work but it was his first, and it's not a bad book to start with! just keep in mind that many of the issues in the book are things he improves on in later books.

Mistborn is two (soon to be 3) series, we distinguish them by 'Era' and they should be read in order if you want to make sense of what's going on.

Mistborn Era 1 (3 books) is also an excellent place to start, it's a YA-style series so you follow a teenager in a Post-(more like perpetual)-Apocalypse, but it's also an Epic high fantasy so if you like those and don't mind romance It's a good one.

"Mistborn Secret History": read this after Mistborn Era 1 if you're going the PHD route read anytime before The Lost Metal (Era 2 Book 4) for everyone else. (PhD track: if you want the most out of it I suggest also reading White Sand first)

Mistborn Era 2 (4 books) is a high fantasy Western set in the same world much later in time, 10/10 no notes, it's excellent.

The Stormlight Archive, TheBigOne™ It is planned to be a 10-book series with accompanying Novellas. I suggest reading in chronological order including the short stories, published so far that would be:

The Way of Kings

Words of Radiance

"Edgedancer" (novella)

Oathbringer

"Dawnshard" (novella)

Rhythm of War

Start with this series if you thirst for sprawling high-fantasy novels with page counts that would make grown men weep (the Audiobook for RoW was like 48 hours long)

The entirety of Arcanum Unbounded is not required reading, (unless you're on the PhD track) but it contains both "The Emperor's Soul" and "Edgedancer", you should probably read Elantris, Mistborn Era 1, Alloy Of Law (MB Era 2 Book 1), and Stormlight (up to Words of Radiance). If you enjoy Graphic Novels and dislike spoilers/rereading stuff when you haven't finished it yet I suggest skipping the White Sand excerpt.

White Sand is also not a terrible intro, it covers a theme in B-Sandy's work that isn't directly related to the cosmere but will give you a good insight into whether you'll like his work or not: the idea that skill is developed, not just inherent. if you're like me and dislike graphic novels GraphicAudio™ (actually a company not a joke) Has an Audio rendition that has some narrative differences from the Graphic novels (iirc at least one character is a different gender) But the Graphic novels also have a random boombox on a planet with no electricity so either should be fine.

Yumi and the Nightmare Painter is in a similar situation to Tress of The Emerald Sea except instead of a classic European Folktale Vibe it's got a Western Interpretation of Anime Vibe, ofc it's high fantasy like all Sandon Branderson's work so it's world is inspired by Japanese culture rather than just being Japanese.

The Sunlit Man read Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell (Arcanum Unbounded), and at least Oathbringer (Stormlight Archive 3) before this one, unless you like being thrown into the deep end, Mistborn Era 1 & 2 would also help.

There are other routes than Ph.D., there's also the Galactic Politics route, The Secret Society route, The Worldhopper Watcher route, The Ancient History route (Aka The Shattering route) ect

if you want specific reading route recs just tell me what you're looking for I can help!

The Graphicaudio version of Network Effect seems to have completely excised the bit where MB scares off the guy with Amena??? It then proceeds to make reference to the scene they did not show me?????? What on earth.

Dungeon Crawler Carl

by Matt Dinniman / 4.5 stars

This book was such a ride! Definitely one that I would be ecstatic to see as a GraphicAudio title, because the experience would become a whole 'nother level.

I've never played a Dungeon style video game. While the achievements and progression made sense, it was all new to me. To say I'm hooked on this series would be an extreme understatement!

Much like Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, we start off finding out that Earth is going to be destroyed. Humans had time to petition against this, but they never filed the proper paperwork that of course they knew nothing about. We move on from the Hitchhiker's element, but maybe I'm just always looking for a comparison to those books! Anyone who happened to be outside at 2:30 AM survives the literal collapse of the world. All buildings - and anything and anyone inside them - have been demolished and driven below ground to use in construction of the dungeon.

An announcement is given, offering survivors the chance to enter the dungeon, and if they reach level 18 they'll be given the Earth as their prize. In a pair of too small pink crocs, naked except for boxers and a jacket, Carl enters the dungeon with his ex-girlfriend's prize show cat, Princess Donut.

From here, the action is pretty much non-stop, and the construction of the dungeon's many aspects are so creative and unlike anything I've ever experienced before! As a book, a least. I love Mordachai the guild guide, and I'm so looking forward to book two. Next our heros get to chose their race and class as they enter level 3 of the dungeon!
