I am thrilled to announce the audiobook release for The Fragments – The Spheres Book One
After some ups and downs—okay, a lot of downs—the audiobook edition of The Fragments is finally coming. ✨
I love listening to audiobooks, so making this happen has been a goal for a while. I started experimenting with ElevenLabs last year and was just about to give up when they introduced ElevenLabs Studio—chapters, pronunciation dictionaries, the works. A must-have for sci-fi and fantasy productions.
That said, working with ElevenLabs is about as much fun as poking your eyes out, and it took a long time to get a result I’m actually proud of. But here we are!
The audiobook will be available at Kobo, Google Play, and my online shop on 7 July 2026, followed by more distributors in the coming months.
Free sample—The Fragments, Chapter 13, Time
This audiobook edition is an early experiment in digital narration—reviewed and edited by humans. The modest price tag supports my writing adventures and keeps my books affordable. Listen to the sample and, if you’re curious or just want to hear The Fragments come to life, I’d love for you to be part of that experiment with me.

New here? I write adult fantasy that sits somewhere between dystopia, post-apocalyptic fiction, and science fiction—complex, a little dark, unapologetically nerdy.
I’ve published two books in a trilogy called The Spheres—The Fragments (2022), The House (2025)—and am working on Book Three. If you enjoyed this post, why not sign up to my newsletter or get a free review copy?
You can follow my writing adventures on Bluesky, Instagram, Goodreads and Amazon.
