So, after reading this, I finally decided to buy the first Deathlands book right away, it's about time I at least check it out.
Well, it turns out they aren't available anywhere. Not even as ebooks. Only audiobooks are available. Amazon (not my place of choice to buy ebooks) also has only book 48 and 49 available, rest are audiobooks only.
On a positive side, one less series to worry about!
Thanks for the recommendation. He is around 10, and likes horror / spooky stuff. Will get first book or two and see if he likes them.
Infinite series seems pretty interesting. Will check them out in a few months, hopefully they have better availability than Deathlands ๐
Oh, that's a shame to hear about Deathlands, can't win them all I guess!
In terms of Goosebumps the two titles that stand out in my mind from when I was a child (not that I remember the plots now) are Monster Blood and Night Of The Living Dummy. I believe both of them have a few books continuing the stories as they were popular too, so those may be good ones to start with :)
Yeah. BTW there are two different audiobooks, one are simple / plain, and other are dramatic something. Which one are you listening to?
Thanks for the info about Goosebumps, will check which ones I have at my local shop.
Yes there are, I listen to the Graphic Audio version which is the "dramatised" version that is fully voice acted for each character. There was one section of what I've listened to so far that it substituted the normal version where the uploaded must have been missing a file and it was jarring and not enjoyable comparatively.
I love Graphic Audio adaptations for anything where I can get them, I've listened to a lot of Sanderson books in this format as well as a few other things like that Gideon Sable book and I always prefer it to just one person reading.
And no worries, let us know how you get on with them :D
Ah, cool.
I checked at my local shop, they didn't have first book of Goosebumps, so I picked up the second book, and am now waiting for the first one, should get it soon-ish. I have a thing about reading the series from first book, so going to wait for it to arrive before reading it.
Will let you know how it goes.
Look forward to it, the first book is one of the ones I listened to recently! I'm similar with doing stuff in order when I can.
I was actually eyeing up Dresden today because of your name and I've heard you speak highly of it but I dont think I want to start another long series just yet as I currently have two under way!
