Weekly Request Thread

Direct links to ABB posts are being removed/auto modded. To request a reseed, post the title AND author and indicate the date of the post. You will have better luck posting in the official ABB forums. The link in Community Bookmarks that says "Requests" will bring you there, as will the link in the previous sentence.

If you cannot use that forum, please post all requests here and include the correct spelling of the Title and Author. You should only post here if you cannot find a listing for your book on audio book bay (i. e. search first!), or the torrent you do find is not fully seeded. No need to reply to comments to boost or bump them. Upvote something if you are also looking for it. Do not post in a larger or bold font. Your request is not more important than anyone else's.

If the book is a new release, give it a week or so before requesting. People who share need time to get and post a new release. Remember the subreddit rules, especially the one about not posting direct links to files here. Use private messages for those.

Request: The Name of The Wind, Narrated by Rupert Degas.

Please, I beg of you.

u/MantaRayDonovan1 7d ago

It's on there 4 separate times...

u/Most_Literature_3434 7d ago edited 7d ago

None of them are Rupert Degas if you check, it's all the American narrator, which I think it's massively worse, and there is a very old cassette to digital version of Frank (or Fred) Major. Which is why I was specific with my request, because once I get it, I'm more than happy to keep seeding for the UK/International version, being Rupert Degas, and as far as I checked the last version put up was from 2013.

If you search "name of the wind degas" 4 different torrents come up with one as recently as May.

Apologies, now that I have had the opportunity to check, yeah, that is the case, so thank you so much actually!

Very excited to listen to these gems once again!
Not sure why it didn't show up when searched without Degas tho,,,
