The Guardian, a U.K. newspaper with a liberal attitude, has completed the podcasting of a young adult fantasy audiobook narrated by Sir Ian McKellen (movie fans may know him as “Gandalf” from The Lord of The Rings movies). First released in 2005, this novel is the first in a series called “Chronicles of Ancient Darkness.” Fourteen weeks of podcasting (at one part per week) and the book is now complete, unfortunately the podcast feed no longer contains the early parts of the book so instead of just giving you the podcast feed we’ve gathered up all the individual files. Details follow…

The Wolf Brother podcast was also run as part of a special promotion at audible.co.uk, where you could buy other books in the series as specially priced downloads. Audible.co.uk also released these episodes as a podcast, about a week after the Guardian releases, and all 14 episodes are still available as iTunes podcasts at Wolf Brother podcast. Selecting that link in your browser should take you to the Wolf Brother podcast page in the iTunes Store. If that doesn’t work, use the iTunes power search and select the podcasts category. Then type in “Wolf Brother” in the title field.
