Best selling fantasy audio-books – October 2008 – Audible.co.uk

Two FREE Audiobook Downloads from Audible Terry Pratchett and Philip Pullman are, once again, the most popular fantasy authors that have been recorded onto audio-books. It is Christopher Paolini, however, with the third instalment of his Inheritance Cycle that appears from nowhere to take top spot.
