I recently bought Runes off ITunes, its different from what i remember. ( In fact i was planning on making a thread on this. ) It Is Abridged, does that mean they've changed some of it? :? This is thie first audiobook ive ever had so i wasnt sure.

I'd also love the First and Second Chrons, but ive never found them anywhere.

Abridged means condensed or shortened to save space/time. So yes it's not the complete book. Who is reading on the tape/cd?

heh Goddam. I was robbed. I thought as much, there was no mention of the mobius arch above Jerimiahs bed, or him taking the car. Oh! or roger hitting the gaurd with the gun and cracking his skull.
ARGH! im really pretty pissed now.

I just deleted an old audiobooks thread. Apparently Corwin, a brief member here, said he had access to a downloadable audio set of, at least, the 1st Chrons. But this appears to have illegal ramifications.

In that thread
Charles Timewaster wrote:Technically, all of the audiobooks are under copyright until 70 years after Donaldson's death. He's said on the Gradual Interview that he's not going to die, which means that it'll never be legal to download them.
Knowing Chas. is he knows what he's talking about--so your answer, at this point, seems to be: no.
