A Podiobook is an Audiobook delivered via a podcast. Evo Terra coined the phrase back in 2005 when podcasting was in its infancy. 2005 you say? Well sometimes I take a bit of time to come around to something good.
I’ve started listening to my first one. Descent – Book one of the 7th Son series by J.C. Hutchins (click through on that link to start listening to it as well).
The cool thing about this is when you sign up (instead of just subscribing to the feed I linked above) you can actually set how often the audio chapters get released to you. One a day or longer – and best of all it is Free!!! Well if you like the book you can and should donate an amount to podiobooks, and the author will get 75% of your donation.
Stuck on a train 3 hours a day? Run out of podcasts? Sick of your Music? Try a Podiobook.

w00t! Hey, if it takes 3 years for the message to reach folks, I’m a happy camper. Enjoy J.C.’s book. You only have another 232 to go and you’ll be caught up with us. 🙂

I’ve almost finished Book 1. Very exciting story.

I’ve finished book one (and donated!) and am moving onto 7th Son: Book Two – Deceit
It is an extremely interesting storyline.

Seven chapters in and the book has me hooked. I am at the point where I saw value in donating. Thanks for podiobooks.com and for commenting.
