Coral Glynn
Read by Simon Prebble
The acclaimed Peter Cameron explores the ways love appears in, and disappears from, our lives.
Starred Review. "...quietly compelling...The book is suffused with a lonely sadness and an aura of the surreal, and the many dramatic events in Coral's life are entirely plausible thanks to Cameron's skill as a storyteller." - Publishers Weekly (book review)

Mrs Queen Takes the Train
By William Kuhn
Read by Simon Prebble
William Kuhn's delightful fictional debut features an endearing runaway Queen Elizabeth on the town.
Earphones Award Winner. "Simon Prebble gives an impeccable performance in this story about Queen Elizabeth's spontaneous and unescorted journey on a train, which throws the staff of the Royal Household into chaos... Prebble's pacing with the Queen's soft-spoken, intentional speech is spot-on, as are his flawless transitions from one character's accent to the next. His intentionally exaggerated American and Indian accents and his rendering of the subtle differences between various English accents make a charming story even more entertaining. A sweet treat for Anglophiles." - AudioFile Magazine
