Back in November, House Andrews announced that there will be a full cast dramatic adaptation of Clean Sweep done by Graphic Audio.
I promised to remind you when the release is upon us: it’s TODAY!
You can listen to a small sample here on the order page. They also have the details of all formats available and instructions for using the Access app to listen to your purchase.
Step 1: Create an account with Graphic Audio (you can take the shortcut and link it to your Amazon account)
Step 2: purchase Clean Sweep
Step 3: Download the Access app on your device and look in the “Collection” section for your download. You’re ready to listen!
If you want to chose the zip download options, they give the user the ability to listen to the files on third party players or to back up the files on personal drives for collection purposes. Read more.
Notice there will be a CD version, but the release is slightly later, in February.
It will be available on March 1 at Audible, Storytel, Audiobooks dot com, Overdrive, Google books, Apple books, Chirp, Hoopla, AudiobooksNow, Kobo, LibroFM and more.
There are no geographical restrictions to purchasing the book or downloading the Access app. Depending on your bank, a small foreign currency fee may apply if you buy from another country (for me in the UK it was 20 pence).
House Andrews are very happy with the collaboration and they were able to make sure the pronunciation of names and terms was accurate. Graphic Audio adaptations, for those who don’t know, are quite similar to the radio dramas of old, and include a diverse cast, with each character being voiced by a different actor, sound effects, music etc.
I had a bit of a sneak peak listen under Mod prerogatives™ and absolutely lost it at the Arland drinking coffee scene hehehe. The actor really runs with it.
Happy weekend listen!
I love most the vrooom of magic happening.
I am glad you mentioned the pronunciation of the names, etc.
I just got the audio of Blood Heir and the new narrator pronounces a bunch of words differently. I am not sure if it was her doing or author’s decision but it throws me off when I hear that ????
The pronunciation of names in Blood Heir is the correct one, following the intent of House Andrews had all along. This is confirmed here ???? https://ilona-andrews.com/2021/blood-heir-audio-is-now-available/
Went and purchased it. Downloading now. This is awesome and so excited!!!!
I’m really excited for this, but when I looked to purchase an mp3 version, it sounds like all versions are captive via DRM and can only be played through yet another proprietary app. Are there any versions that can be played without installing an app?
I downloaded the MP3 and played it on another app. So yes you can.
Hey Joe,
All 3 of the zip download options give the user the ability to listen to the files on any player they want – no restrictions.
You can also back up the files on a personal drive for collection purposes.
We liaised with Graphic Audio and the recommendation for you was MP3 Zip Download with Access App option, which is the most compatible format for any third party player out there.
You can read more about it here https://www.graphicaudio.net/download-info
Hope this helps ????
Wow! I purchased this immediately and love this!!!!!! Thank you so much.
I was so immensely excited when you guys announced this was happening! I love GraphicAudio and seeing a series I love being done by them made me actually gasp out loud. Forreal, I already have the original audiobook copy of Clean Sweep and I got this immediately and am already done with it.
I hope this is just the start to a continued partnership and we can hear more!
Thank you for the info!
I usually don’t do audiobooks, but I might this time, it sounds interesting.
Have a great day
😉
I usually do not do audio books as I read faster that I listen. But I had to get this and finished at 3:08 AM because I could not stop listening. I look forward to any other Graphic Audio books you decide to do. This one was excellent and very hilarious at times.
This audiobook was great! Highly recommend listening to it. The Costco fight was my favorite. Now off to re-read the rest of the series.
Unfortunately it seems there is no option to purchase this with INR. Paying in USD does not really work for me. 🙁 Alas, the sample sounded rather enticing.
Totally awesome! Downloaded it last night. Thanks and I hope it goes well, looking forward to getting more of them.
The sample sounds amazing!! Love those old radio dramas!
I already own all of Innkeeper in both e-book and audio book formats (print is next on my list!). This was an absolutely amazing addition, and I loved it!
I’m really hoping (i.e., desperately praying) there is enough momentum to keep this up and finish the series with Graphic Audio.
Thank you for always being a bright spot ????
It was great! Enjoyed every minute of it. The Texas accent is a little over done, but otherwise spot on.
Loved the sample. Will wait until it comes out on CD
Liked this graphic audio, but am glad I still have the original audio, the background sounds hit the headache problem I have, so while this weekend I started listening to it, and was enjoying it. I had to stop and go to other audio when my headache, started getting to bad, (do to weather not the audio), I hate not finishing a relisten. Regardless will go back and give it another try when my headache calms down. Did enjoy the separate voices and sound effects, it seemed to be a great change for the very often listen to original. Still very happy the originals still hits my comfort tones. Will still be interested in getting more of these, so thanks
I was going to wait for my road trip coming up to listen to clean sweep. But apparently I have no self control lol. This is amazing and I hope they do more I will buy everything! I’m really picky when it comes to audio books. Some are really terrible ! The first audio book I ever listened to I was so disappointed when I realized it was only one narrator. I thought it would be like the plays we had to listen to in school. Then i was excited when I bought a book with a male and female narrator. Then I was disappointed again because the female read the female chapters and the male read the male chapters . I thought the female would do all the female parts and the male would do all the male parts. I had never heard of graphic audio until Ilona and Gordon said they would have the first innkeeper recorded with graphic audio. This is everything I’ve been missing in life. This audio version made my day listening to it. So thank you so much for writing everything you write and do for us. The world would be a darker place without you both and your writing!
Laughed so hard – this is awesome! Unfortunately I don’t think l can afford it right now…
Love Dina’s accent, but thought her voice would be a bit younger.
I dislike audiobooks normally but would definitely listen to this.
“Movie in your mind” indeed! Just finished and this was great. So much fun!! From the background sounds which really built on the narration, to the extra voices, this was just a fantastic listen. Any chance the rest of the series will follow?
I buy all Andrews books in both Audio Book (Audible) and Kindle version already. Plus I already love audio books, and listen to at least 4 audio books a month. But this was a new experience and added a lot to it.
Thanks for doing this! It was a real treat.
It was fabulous!! I listened to it yesterday and the time sped by. What a marvelous way to enjoy this book. Now , of course, I want more House Andrews books in this format. But even if this is the only one it is amazing. What a great cast.
I absolutely loved the GA adaptation (even though I already have all the books in audio format)!
I really hope the rest of the series is done this way, too ????
When will it be out on CD? Where and when can we buy that version?
Hey Captain Pat,
The CD will be out in early February and will be available for purchase from the Graphic Audio website 🙂 https://www.graphicaudiointernational.net/innkeeper-chronicles-1-clean-sweep.html
Looks like there isn’t a possibility to rent instead of buy?
Maybe when it hits the other retailers in March ????
Ooh will look out for that, thanks!
I got the graphic audio app and bought the new improved radio-type version of Clean Sweep through my Amazon account. The book was a lot of fun. I hope Graphic audio are allowed to do more of the Innkeeper series. The Maude and Arland book recorded like this would be amazing.
I just finished listening to the Graphic Audio version of Clean Sweep. It was awesome. Such a delight to listen to. It was sheer genius by House Andrews to try graphic audio. The variety of marvelous voices wonderful and made for a lively listening experience. The readers make such a difference. The other reader I like is Steve West. I have listened to Iron and Magic many times. Y’all select some really riveting readers. Thank you so much for this joy!
Loving it! I hope there are more.
This is great! Too bad Dina’s voice didn’t click for me though Sean was fine.
Got it and listened to the whole thing today. Love this series and this audiobook is very good.
Thanks! ????
I agree with Mod R. the coffee scene was great! I downloaded this yesterday and listened to it in an afternoon while working on the fendish jigsaw puzzle my DH gave me for Christmas. While I loved the original audiobook with Renee Raudman, this was fun too. What a great way to spend an afternoon!
I’m really enjoying it. Mod R do you know if there are plans for them to do more of the series?
Wow! The accent got me at first but by the end of the clip I was like, “Yeah, yeah this is working for me” 🙂
This was fun!!!????
Thanks so much for greenlighting a treat like this! I had to work through the weekend, and listened to this while I was working – it was an excellent carrot. The only downside was that when it ended, I couldn’t just jump to the next book in this format. I hope you’ll consider doing this type of adaptation for the rest of the series!
Hi!
Just listened to the audio sample. Yay! Picky question here.
I didn’t know Dina was originally from Texas? Where was her parent’s inn again? Because that would inform her accent.
Sorry to bring it up,
Thanks!
Trish :^D
Dina grew up at her parents Inn in Georgia and currently lives in Red Deer, Texas.
I hope this helps 🙂
I didn’t really try audiobooks until the pandemic, and found that I enjoyed them and the performance.
An audiobook is like a candle to the campfire Graphic Audio has created. It’s amazing, and everyone who likes Innkeeper needs it, now.
My very first graphic audio ever. I do not have strong enough words to express how much I enjoyed it. Now I want every IA book in graphic audio.
I loved the new audiobook so much. It felt like less an audiobook and more like a radio drama with the background music/noises (which took a while to get used to but eventually I loved it).
Please do the rest of the Innkeeper series and other IA books, if possible. It’s likely expensive to produce but sooo worth it as a reader.
Greetings!
QUESTION FOR MOD R:
Is this lovely book an unabridged version….?….
Full Cast Audio (sorry, old name there) usually ARE unabridged, but after getting burned a couple of times, I’m very cautious.
WHY would anyone do one of Eileen Wilks Lupi books and cut out Rule’s son?
No, all the content is there ????
Bought this book about a week ago and have listened to it at least 3x now…just saw that there was a preorder option for Sweep In Peace…DONE! I can’t wait for Orro!!!
Hey, I was just on the GA site and it says Sweep in Peace will be available 7 march? I hope so, but why no annoncement on the blog?
Hey Vicki,
I was a bit hasty with Monday’s post and it went out before the news was available that they will be adapting Sweep in Peace too.
I hope it didn’t cause too much distress 🙂
Ok, I just have to mention this. First, I love the Clean Sweep story. I have the original audiobook and was looking forward to listening to the graphic audio version. I had to stop reading books because of eye strain. I’m listening to Clean Sweep now. Great narration, BUT why is the loud background music almost always present in every chapter? It’s very distracting and almost drowns out the narration. In a lot of audio books, there is some music at the intro, but then it fades out and goes away. This graphic audio book just keeps it playing. Sorry, don’t mean to complain, but it’s driving me crazy.
OMG – I cannot believe how much I enjoyed the graphic audio version – it is fabulous! Such insight into characters! Love, Love, Love!
