10 Bill Bryson Audio Books:

A Short History of Nearly Everything
A Walk in the Woods
I'm a Stranger Here Myself (Abridged) :(
In a Sunburned Country
Journeys in English
Notes from a Small Island
The Lost Continent
The Mother Tongue
The World as Stage
The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid

I have listened to all of these, some more than once.  They are of fairly good quality.  I definitly didn't have any trouble with them.  

I must insist that these books are fantastic.  "A Short History of Nearly Everything" should be compulsory reading in all high schools.  The rest of them are so anecdotally delightful that they are nearly irrestible.  It doesn't really matter what order you go through them, but I suggest "The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid" before "A Walk in the Woods".  That way you get an introduction to Steven Katz.

Enjoy!

Will be seeding from my second PC on Saturday, should speed things up a great deal.
Bryson's great. Thanks for the torrent!
Wow, that seeded fast.
A smooth download and started listening, excellent quality. A really lovely torrent. Thank you so much indeed.
I have the paperback of "A Short History of Nearly Everything" and it is a fantastic book. Funny, informative and well written.

About 1/2 through Short History (the paperback, not from the torrent) but its absolutely great, and makes you smart like bill nye.
Great torrent, and appreciate you putting it up here but one BIG complaint - the ID3 tags on ALL of these are TERRIBLE. A handful of typos, Most tracks are missing disc or track numbers, etc.... Just spent literally 30 minutes fixing everything in iTunes.
If someone has a good copy of Mother Tongue, could they please seed it as a separate torrent? Mine has bits and pieces replaced with another audio novel. It seems like an awfully good book until it spontaneously changes channels. Thanks.
Thanks for the up, these books are great!
A bit of a purist - I much prefer the Bryson narrated ones, and the only one he narrates is too low bitrate and unusable (Sunburned Country). Ah well, I'll try another torrent instead.
Been listening to 'Mother Tongue'. There are places where the sound is really fast like the tape is stretched, sections that sound like they are from a different book and bits that repeat. Haven't listened to the other books yet, but going to have to replace 'mother tongue' as it is becoming impossible to listen too.
thanks
Yeh mother tounge is very very annoying to listen too.
i agree... 'short history..' should be compulsory reading. i got my 10 year niece hooked on it
