Starting today and going through August AudioBookSync.com is giving away free audiobook downloads. Every 2 weeks, 2 different books are available. In order to receive them I think you need to sign up for their email alerts but I've included the link. They are doing this as a promotion to get young adults interested in books.

This week's books are:
The Time Machine
The Reluctant Assassin

Nice find!

Thank you Jan for the heads up!

You don't need to sign up for the email - I got most of them last year without signing up. However, it is easy to miss a week so the email alerts are probably worthwhile.

and I think this year (unlike previous years) pretty much all of them are available internationally

They were available in Canada last year - I got The Raven Boys (still have not read it!)

I know most of them were, but not all of them

Jennifer, I loved The Raven Boys! It was very well narrated.

I'll have to move it up my list :)

I originally posted that this was every two weeks. There are actually two new downloads every week. So the second week downloads are ready:

Cruel Beauty
Oedipus the King

Yes, thanks for letting us know, I signed up for the email so I won't miss any more of them. Would have loved the time machine, have to go to the library for it.

The next two are up there

Thanks for the heads up, Michael - I didn't get my email reminder.

I didn't either. I was just thinking time to check :)

My library now has audio downloads and all I listen to now are free books ; )

Two more are up:

All Our Yesterdays looks like another YA dystopia and the second one is the play Julius Caesar.

Two great books this week:

Code Name Verity
The Hiding Place

The hiding place is one of my favorite books.

I loved that book. I see that the audiobook is narrated by Bernadette Dunne. She's fabulous.

Cool! Code Name Verity has been on my TBR for ages.

Awesome! Thanks for posting each week to remind us!

This is terrific, I just downloaded these two..
Code Name Verity
and
The Hiding Place

I am reading Code Name Verity at the moment so I will look forward to listening to the audio version...I think it will lend itself nicely to audio.

Next two are up:
Anne of Green Gables (yes I know I'm male, but I have fond memories reading this book as a kid)

I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You

I can highly recommend both the book and audio versions of Code Name Verity! Five star rating from me. This is a terrific story.

Thanks Ali-ef I think I've caught a *cough* ;)

My pleasure. ;-)

This doesn't to be available in the UK either :( I tried and was told it was not available in my region...

cough cough....just figured it out...sorry a bit slow ;)

I listened to the reluctant assassin and really enjoyed it. Eoin Cofer is one of my favorite authors, if you want to check out Airman I think its one of his best!

Airman is AMAZING! I have it on my mp3 player to re-listen to very very shortly... I think it'll be my 4th time to listen.

Next two are up. They both sound too sad for me so I think might skip them... :(
October Mourning: A Song for Matthew Shepard
Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock

Next two are:
Torn from Troy by Patrick Bowman
and
Peter and the Starcatchers by Dave Barry
