Harry Potter Spanish audio book – Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone

Maria — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 18:39:03 +0000

Until a few days ago, the only audiobook edition of Harry Potter y la piedra filosofal (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone) I was familiar with was priced at over a hundred dollars.

Now it can be purchased for $25.

That’s not bad for an edition which comes in 8 cds lasting 8 hours.

Harry Potter y la piedra filosofal is the first title in the series created by J.K. Rowling and, unfortunately, the only one that has been published in audio book format so far.

If you want to listen to this Spanish audio book along with the printed version, here is Harry Potter y la piedra filosofal (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone) in book format.

The Da Vinci Code – Spanish audiobook – El código Da Vinci

I love audiobooks.

If you’re looking for fun ways of improving your Spanish, here’s a great one: listen to the Spanish audiobook of The Da Vinci Code (El código Da Vinci), by American author Dan Brown, which is now one of the bestselling Spanish audiobooks ever.

You can get the unabridged version for under $24. It comes in 19 cds and runs for nearly 24 hours! If that’s too long, you can also download the abridged 8 hour version.

To really make the most of this audiobook, try following it along with the printed book in Spanish.

Spanish audiobooks – Top 10 bestselling thrillers

Maria — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 15:53:00 +0000

If you’re an audiobook fan, you’re in for a treat. The number of Spanish audiobooks now published every month has dramatically increased over the last few years.

Today you can find dozens of titles in every category imaginable: religion, thrillers and mystery novels, classic literature, children’s books, yoga and fitness classes, self-help books, poetry readings and, of course, Spanish language learning.

Here I’m going to focus on the top 10 bestselling thrillers in Spanish on cd. There are some Spanish authors I expected to feature on this list, like Carlos Ruiz Zafón and Arturo Pérez Reverte, but unfortunately they still haven’t been published on cd in Spanish.

To keep you up to date, I’m monitoring all new audiobook releases and will let you know through this blog what comes out.
