Here at Oakhill Audio Books our monthly output of eight tremendous unabridged audio books continues throughout 2011, and here's just a small selection of the fabulous quality and range of writing you can expect from Oakhill this Autumn.

There are very few authors who have received such widespread recognition as Barbara Taylor Bradford and her latest novel, Letter from a Stranger demonstrates why she continues to be so admired. This story of a daughter's quest to uncover family secrets is both compelling and moving. A more action-packed offering is Mark Mills' latest thriller, House of the Hanged, which begins in revolutionary Russia and ends on the French Riviera of the 1930s. Then there's the intriguing Caleb's Crossing by Geraldine Brooks, the fascinating story of a meeting of cultures in 17th century America. The son of a chieftain is educated by a fervent Puritan minister, plucked from his own environment and sent to study at college – all under the eye of the minister's daughter, who narrates the tale.

As well as our adult titles, we also have four engrossing children's audio books on offer each month. One of our best-loved authors, Michael Morpurgo, tells the story of the relationship between a German prisoner-of-war and young girl, with whose family he stays in Little Manfred. The twist is that the 1966 World Cup offers the prospect of a reunion, but what will happen?

To find these and many other bestselling titles, you can browse through our current range or search our complete backlist to see for yourself the quality audio books we produce for libraries throughout the United Kingdom and the world.
