New on the iPod

 The manic uploading of audios has slowed a bit here lately, but still have a number of additions to tell you about.

Insomnia by Stephen King (received from Orange County Library, impulsively ordered while I was trying to find an audio of "Carrie")

Synopsis from Amazon:  Nightmares come to life for Ralph Roberts. Up all night, he's seeing some pretty strange things. No wonder he can't get back to sleep. Readers won't be able to either.

Narrator:  Eli Wallach
Listening length:  25 hours, 39 minutes

I've read this book before, long long ago, and absolutely loved it.  It broke my heart.  I saw that my library had it on audio and saw that Eli Wallach was narrating, and couldn't resist.

 Lost in Shangri-La by Mitchell Zuckoff (received from Orange County Library and inspired to order it after seeing all the great reviews of his newer book "Frozen in Time")

Synopsis from Amazon:  An exhilarating, untold story of an extraordinary World War II rescue mission, where a plane crash in the South Pacific plunged a trio of U.S.military personnel into a land that time forgot.

Narrator:  Mitchell Zuckoff (author)
Listening length:  8 hours, 32 minutes

Silken Prey by John Sandford (received from Penguin Audio)

Synopsis:  23rd installment of the Lucas Davenport Prey series.  I've read every single one of them and I'm not stopping now.  This is a character who never goes stale.

Narrator:  Richard Ferrone
Listening length:  12 hours, 18 minutes
