Lovecraft and MR James read by GDL

[julesjones]

Thanks to agentxpndble, I now know that Fantom Films is doing two audiobooks of HP Lovecraft's short stories, narrated by Gareth David-Lloyd (better known to squeeing fangirls like me as Ianto Jones), Ian Fairbairn and Staten Eliot. Available for pre-order at 12.99 each, or you can pre-order both for 24.99 and get a free copy of Cult Conversations, an actor interview CD. More details here:

You can hear clips from Cult Conversations and from previous audiobooks of MR James short stories at the Fantom Films site and at audible.co.uk.

I never really, *truly* fall deeply in love with an actor until he starts doing audio work... I have a bad feeling that GDL will be a permanent fixture in my life after I get these. Augh! That voice!

I'm a sucker for good voices. I'd happily listen to that other Welsh sf actor Gareth Thomas read the phone book.

Of course, now I am middle-aged one advantage of audiobooks is that I don't have to be constantly reminded that I am drooling over an actor who is [mumble] years younger than me. I'm not old enough to be GLD's mother, but even so I start to feel like a dirty old woman sometimes when watching Torchwood...

I suppose I'm not either but damn, it's a close thing. I try not to think about it.
