Another site I've been looking at lately is
AudiobooksGuild. This is basically a collection of authors that had some level of following on Amazon/Audible and decided to band together to keep more of their cheddar and not give it to Jeff. The titles are mostly guy-oriented (a rarity for books) and be sure you look at the title description before giving them your money - make sure the subject matter is for you! All of their titles are DRM-free and can be downloaded through Bookfunnel.
There are a couple of free titles available, and if you'd like to check them out to see if this is for you I'd like to recommend "Downfall and Rise" by Nathan Thompson, read by Christopher Boucher and Jessica Threet.
Quote:
Damaged. Disgraced. Dishonored.
And the only hero who can save seven worlds.
When a freak accident ruins his body and his memory, Wes Malcolm loses his scholarship and his place in the world. Every treatment has failed, save one: a fully immersive VR game, designed by his late, disgraced father, that mimics the condition his body used to possess. To everyone's disbelief, his body and mind slowly improve, bit by bit, but it's still not enough.
Then one night, he wakes up in a world just like the game his father designed. Here, he can grow, learn, and thrive. But this world and all its sister planets are under assault from nightmare creatures, supernatural storms, and a host of other cataclysms. The strange, beautiful steward of these worlds offers him a deal: Save her planets, and he can take the power he gains back to his original body on Earth. It's the best chance he's ever been offered. But will his determination be enough, both for himself and the worlds now depending on him?
Come and find out.
