@pluralistic's newsletter shared this link: https://thebookslist.com/20-fiction-books-to-inspire-climate-action/, which is an excellent list of #climae #action #books, but the couple I've tried to locate #audiobooks of don't seem to have them easily avialablle. I've tried the #NLSBard, @librofm, #Chirpbooks, and even #audible (I don't subscribe, but whenever I get <n> months of Audible free, I have a List of exclusives that I'd like to listen to).

I even tried Bookshare.org, which I have access to as a student.

I have #LostCause because Cory rocks, but there are many books that I'd like to read that don't have #audiobook editions.

And this is true for other genres, too.

Chirp Books has the audiobook for The Rage of Dragons by Evan Winter available for just $5 for a limited time. If you haven't read this, I would recommend it. I read it in 2021, gave it a 4-star rating, and noted that it was reminiscent of Red Rising to me.

Recursion by Blake Crouch is available in audiobook format for just $5.99 right now at Chirp Books. This was a rather trippy read. I didn't enjoy it as much as I enjoyed Dark Matter, but it's still pretty decent.

My wife and I buy a lot of audiobooks from https://www.chirpbooks.com/ - I appreciate that they use DRM-free .m4a files in their web player, but I find it annoying how difficult they make it to save local copies of the books you've purchased.

So, I made a script to make it easier to download my books:

@Lanean Also if anyone is looking for some good audiobook alternatives, I've been having a pretty good experience with a mix of https://libro.fm and https://www.chirpbooks.com

Libro.fm has a monthly subscription service basically identical to Audible, but also lets you pick a local book store to which some portion of every purchase goes.

Chirp books has hugely discounted audiobooks.
