Orson Scott Card Selects Star Born by Andre Norton and published by Wonder Audio for the first title in an exciting new feature at Audible.com.

Here’s how Audible describes it:
Orson Scott Card Selects:

In an exclusive relationship, Audible is launching a monthly recommendation program with Hugo Award-winning Orson Scott Card, the author of the classic Ender’s Game, and one of the industry’s best-selling writers. Card will provide exclusive audio critiques of each selection.

“It’s easy for great novels and novellas to get lost in the bookstore - not everything can get front-of-store display!” Card said. “That’s what I’ll be doing with ‘OSC Selects’ - moving new and classic sci-fi and fantasy right to the front, so fans will have a better chance of noticing terrific stories performed by first-rate readers.”

“Orson Scott Card Selects” kicks off with the April selection, Star Born by Andre Norton.

Orson Scott Card calls Star Born - “Excellent, first rate, adult science fiction….”

A Sheckley Trilogy: Three Classic Tales of Science Fiction
By Robert Sheckley; Read by Mark Douglas Nelson
2 hrs. - [UNABRIDGED]

Availiable at Audible and iTunes

Robert Sheckley, master of the science-fiction short-story form, created numerous tales of dark humor. He had an entertaining gift for looking at society with a warped mirror, enabling us to see ourselves in a clearer reflection.

“Keep Your Shape” is from the perspective of an alien race with the unseemly ability to change shape. In “The Seventh Victim”, murder is legal and sanctioned by society, and the gunman’s victim is a beautiful woman. And when a spaceship filled with diverse alien life forms is stranded without a star drive, they only have one chance of getting home again. That chance is with a “Specialist” from Earth.

These three works were originally published in Galaxy and The Magazine of Science Fiction and Fantasy in 1953.
