At the end of July, Fantasy News YouTuber Daniel Greene posted a video warning about Audible’s new royalty program, demonstrating how it’s going to hurt indie authors.
I agree that Audible screws authors over. On a side note, I’ve read a couple of Sullivan’s books. Good imagination and world building, but the story was very, very predictable. I haven’t had a desire to read any of his books since.
I will have to read one then. I found the author Michael Crichton to be similar. After his book Congo the “similar stories, different locations” threw me off and I stopped reading him.
I was burned by audible a long time ago, so this cannot be my circus: got no skin in the game.
Also boycotting Amazon - their choice - since my Kindle died.
Not sure what I could do to support these authors, here, but I wish them well
All these NewTech guys are pure wossname Bespin? Cloud City. Starts out cool, lofty, until everyone is all-in, no other options can compete, and then Darth Vader shows up.

I enjoyed his books :) I read the first trilogy. YMMV.
