JK Rowling’s The Casual Vacancy

If you don’t count 2011’s The Cuckoo’s Calling, written under her Robert Galbraith nom de plume, then The Casual Vacancy ($5.95) was JK Rowling’s first novel for adults. Regardless, it’s all good stuff and this particular batch is specially priced as it’s the January Audiobook of the Month.

When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early 40s, the little town of Pagford is left in shock. Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war. Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils…. Pagford is not what it at first seems. And the empty seat left by Barry on the town’s council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity, and unexpected revelations?

So, get The Casual Vacancy in audiobook form for just $5.95 on the iTunes Store — it’s the January Audiobook of the Month. Prefer monochrome text on a flat background? Get The Casual Vacancy in iBooks format ($9.99).

Alternately, if you prefer books grown in Amazon’s walled garden, get The Casual Vacancy in Kindle ($8.55) or paperback ($8.89) formats.

Lastly, if you still haven’t taken advantage of Audible’s free audiobook offer, then by all means get the The Casual Vacancy, the January Audiobook of the Month, or any other single-unit audiobook for free with Audible’s free trial offer — cancel anytime and keep the audiobook!
