Some good free audio fiction. Sorry some have little or no detail, but I included what I could find at the sites, or easily elsewhere.


Illustration for Wells' "The War in the Air"

@Beam Me Up: "We Honor those Who Serve" by Steve Singleman.

@Beware the Hairy Mango: "Halfway House" by Matthew Sanborn Smith.

@Cast of Wonders: "The Name-Day" by Saki, read by Graeme Dunlop.
"Adventures, according to the proverb, are to the adventurous. Quite as often they are to the non-adventurous, to the retiring, to the constitutionally timid."

@LibriVox: "The War in the Air" by H. G. Wells, read by many readers.
Wells "published twelve books between 1901 and 1911, including this one. while many British citizens were surprised by the advent of World War I, Wells had already written prophetically about such a conflict. War in the Air predicted use of airplanes in modern war."

"But it was the door slamming that chiefly bothered the old butler. Many and many a time, he told me, had he lain awake and just got shivering with fright, listening; for sometimes the door would be slammed time after time - thud! thud! thud! - so that sleep was impossible."
