The Los Angeles Times Festival of Books began in 1996 with a simple goal: to bring together the people who create books with the people who love to read them. The festival was an immediate success and has become the largest and most prestigious book festival in the country, attracting more than 130,000 book lovers each year.

Gary Phillips is the coeditor of the wellreceived Cocaine Chronicles anthology on criminal behavior and has a short story in the recent Dublin Noir collection called The Man for the Job. He writes a regular column for Mystery Scene magazine and is on the board of the Mystery Writers of America. Visit his website at www.gdphillips.com.

Lisa Scottoline is a New York Times bestselling author of more than 13 legal suspense novels, most recently Look Again. A former trial lawyer and judicial law clerk, Scottoline made the switch from law to writing in 1994 with her Edgar Awardnominated Everywhere that Mary Went.

John Shannon has worked on a newspaper, in TV, taught in the Peace Corps in Malawi, Africa, worked as a technical writer and video producer, and spent much of the 1970s as a political activist in the antiwar movement. Shannon has published the Jack Liffey mystery series about L.A. social history. The 12th book in the series is Palos Verdes Blue.

Stuart Woods is the bestselling author of more than 30 novels. His first novel, Chiefs, won an Edgar Award for Best First Novel. He resides in Key West, Fla; Mount Desert, Maine; and New York City. His most recent book is Loitering with Intent.

Why I Recommend Audible by Alan Twigg

Audible (an Amazon.com company) is the world's leading online audio-book provider. Audible is responsible for supplying audio content to Apple's ITunes service. I have been listening, enjoying and creating audio books for many years. With the arrival of the internet and portable digital devices, audio-books began to become availalbe for download.

Having tried most of the other download services myself, I finally came to the conclusion that Audible offers the best and most reliable service. Whether you are using an IPod, IPhone, mobile phone, Dune or one of the many other MP3 players availalbe, Audilbe makes downloading great quality audio content easy and umcomplicated.


In addition to this, Audible also boasts the most comprehensive collection of audio books anywhere. Depending on the promotion currently on offer, you can download any audiobook of your choice for free (including almost certainly the title on this page, too). This link will take you to Audible...
