Audible’s new proposed royalty structure is a slap in the face to authors, readers who care about them, and exactly opposite of what they promised Brandon Sanderson barely a year ago.
It is an attempt to seize a monopoly by punishing authors until they agree to exclusivity, which would drive Audible’s competitors out of the market.
I’m not sure how many books Sanderson wrote, so I thought maybe someone might only consider the ones written by Jordan, which would put it closer to 10. And it’s the only series I know off the top of my head that has had at least a few of the books rerecorded by Amazon with new narrators (actors from the show) to replace the older narrators. I figured I’d hazard a guess (hence the question mark) and be corrected rather than just ask the question, especially considering the internet’s tendency to enjoy telling someone they are wrong more than answering a question.
Which series do you think it is?
Oh it was a fine guess, I didn’t need to um ackshually you. I know my wife prefers the new recordings with Rosamund Pike over the old Michael Kramer/Kate Reading versions.
I must admit I always fall into the correcting people trap.
For what it’s worth though, RJ wrote 11 main series books and the prequel, BrandoSando wrote 3. And after reading those three I had to go read everything else BrandoSando wrote. Love that guy‘s worldbuilding and magic systems.
I don’t have a better guess. 😅
