Testimony of Mute Things licensed to Blackstone Audio

I'm very pleased to report that the most recent Penric & Desdemona novella, "Testimony of Mute Things", has just been licensed to Blackstone Audiobooks for its usual production. Narrator is again expected to be Grover Gardner.

No, I don't know when it will emerge from the other end of the production pipeline; prior experience suggests 2 to 6 months, probabilities leaning to the shorter end.

Re-using Ron Miller's art, which they've been doing for a while, should help speed things up on their vendor-page assembly. I've no idea what arcana is involved in recording, except I'm glad it's them and not me.

Subterranean Press has also offered for the novella. They'll have a much longer lead-time, probably into 2027, so breath-holding is contraindicated. I did get a look at Lauren Saint-Onge's final art for their upcoming "The Adventure of the Demonic Ox", which is particularly lovely this round. Publication sometime in the first half of 2026, I don't have a date yet. (Or the 1300 tip sheets to be signed, another necessary precursor. That will be a nice brainless task for this winter.)

Ta, L.
