DO THE JOB

Thanks for pointing this out! I never look at the books bundle, so I would have completely missed this! I'm definitely buying this when I get paid Monday!

God **** it, plopped down like $60 on the Radio Drama CD box set. They're **** good though, makes delivering mail bearable.

The radio dramas are fantastic (nobody writes Han Solo like Brian Daley), but a lot of the older Star Wars audiobooks are abridged, and I can't deal with that. I want the whole book.

I would be much more interested if they had the audiobooks narrated by Denis Lawson and Anthony Daniels.

The radio dramas are a good buy for $15. The fact that I'd also get access to work put together by Kevin J. Anderson isn't quite enough to prevent me from contributing.

Yeah, the person who thought abridged audio books should be a thing needs to die a horrible death.

You're paying someone to sit in a chair for a few hours and talk. Once it's done, you've got it. A few hundred dollars worth of pay and snacks and such and that's it. There is no excuse to shortening a book so that it isn't as long in audio form.

Same kind of idiots that ruined Fritz Lang's Metropolis.

I own the three radio dramas already. Sadly, they are on an ancient medium inaccessible in our modern times: cassette tape. Therefore, $15 for the set as digital files was pretty much a no-brainer.

Back when Episode I was about to be released, I was re-listening to those tapes with friends on a road trip. We had such high hopes for the prequels...

Wow, love the audio dramas... great deal!
