Audiobooks - Can anyone help?

Hello Everyone,

I was wondering if any of you Bondians can help me.....

I've been desperately trying to find an audiobook/recording of Icebreaker & Role of Honour for my father. He is partially blind and finds it very hard to read. I recently obtained him the audios of Licence Renewed & Special Services, which he really enjoyed... but I have hit a brick wall in finding the next in set. I've found book #5....... but I'd like to try and get them in order.

Can anyone tell me if they exist?

Thanks to anyone out there who can help!

    Thanks, that's a really useful and interesting article...

    but I can't find copies of the audiobooks anywhere online. They must be out of circulation.

    Hello. Have you tried you tube? There are loads of JB continuation novels on there & if you use the free youtubedownloader programme you can, well, download them.

    That's how I got my collection of Fleming audiobooks.

    Hi There ,

    Yes... I've managed to get pretty much most of them.... barring these two and 'Doubleshot' (which apparently was never done in audiobook format)

    Icebreaker & Role of Honour I simply can't find anywhere.....

    As I recall one of the AJB members had an extensive collection of audiobooks which he was willing to copy, perhaps they include these titles?

    The thing is I can't remember who it was. Perhaps someone may remember the chap?

    Hi, yes, that member is candyman2 and I myself purchased discs from him of the Fleming books, plus a couple of Gardners (Nobody Lives Forever and the License to Kill novelization), all read by David Rintoul for a total of 16 books. I don't remember how much he charged, except that I thought the price was a bargain. He can be reached here via PM.

    Yes, I too bought from him, I might be wrong but at the time I think it
    Was £15, which was indeed a bargin. I now keep a few on my mp3 player
    Great when out walking etc. -{

    Hello,

    Do you know where I might be able to get hold of a copy of the David Rintoul audiobooks?

    Thanks.

    Hi Rintoul16, I will pm you with the info from the seller, but I'm not sure how current it will be.

    Hi, I would also like to track down a copy of the David Rintoul recordings if anyone still has physical or digital copies. I have all the current versions from Audible that were recorded by a different narrator, and an incomplete collection of David Rintoul narrations, but I would like to fill in gaps in my collection if at all possible, as David Rintoul was an awesome narrator, it's a real shame that these recordings were taken out of circulation. If anyone can help I would really appreciate a PM with any details you can provide. Thanks so much
