To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Since I am always on a mission for free stuff, I came across this website http://librivox.org/ and this site http://www.booksshouldbefree.com both have free audio books. Since I am at a computer all day for work I just started listening to audio books since my workplace filters out all audio streaming sites and podcasts, I got nothing to listen to while I work now 🙁
I just finished up the book 'Rebels of the Red Planet' ( http://librivox.org/rebels-of-the-red-p ... -fontenay/) and it was pretty good. And made my working go by faster and you can finish a book in a work day if you play them back to back... looking for another one now.
So if anyone has some recommendations for some great free audio books please let people know what they are.
I didn't recognize many of the titles on the list, other than the classics, and the number of books I have is, well, too big, honestly. I did see two authors, Keith Laumer and Andre Norton, that I've read some of their work, and did enjoy.
frankly, audio books are pretty far down in my list mainly because of the huge file size compared to the usual ebook. also since english isn't my native language, it's hard to understand without rewinding several times on particulary difficult passages
Yes that is a handy site Darkone! Added to my favourites 😉
