The Will of the Many - Audiobook info
Hey everyone,
We now have some audiobook details for The Will of the Many!
First off, I'm pleased to officially announce that the audiobook will launch on the same date as the hardcover and ebook: May 23, 2023. It's available for pre-order here.
Secondly, the voice for this series will be Euan Morton, a fantastic narrator who's also an experienced stage actor (he's currently on Broadway playing King George in the musical Hamilton). I couldn't be happier with this casting - after listening to a lot of candidates, he was far and away my first choice.
(I know I'll get asked this a lot, so for those wondering: I did chat with the good folks at Audible about potentially getting Michael Kramer, who did such a brilliant job with Licanius, on board. However this series is stylistically different - it's written from the first-person perspective of a seventeen year old - and we eventually came to the conclusion that Michael's voice, as great as it is, simply wasn't the right fit for that sort of role.)
It's early days and so the audiobook length isn't known just yet, but the print book's word count is roughly on par with that of An Echo of Things to Come, which turned out to be a touch over 26 hours in audio. I'd expect something similar for The Will of the Many.
Finally, for anyone waiting on reviews, some lovely early ones have started coming in over the past couple of weeks - you can find many of them here on the book's Goodreads page if you're interested.
As always, thanks for reading - that's about it for now - release day's getting close!!
