Hi, all—

I have great news: Today I delivered the audiobook for The Mason of New Orleans. If you’ve followed along with the earlier updates, you know it’s been quite a process—but I’m really happy with the results. If the audiobooks are among your rewards, download it now. I hope you really enjoy it!

Now here’s some less good news. I’d hoped to provide you with clear, detailed instructions on how to conveniently access and enjoy this audiobook. Alas, it was not to be. I have found the process to be confusing and inconsistent, and the advice I have to offer is limited. I hate to throw you a file and say “you’re on your own!” but the issue has defeated me. I’ve already delayed this delivery by a couple of weeks trying to solve it, and it seemed better to just get you the files rather than continue the delay.

Here's what limited advice I can give you. There are two versions of the file (M4B and MP3)—they’re both the complete book, just different formats for different apps.

On a Mac:

On an iOS device:

On PC or Andriod devices:

Again, sorry to throw you to the wolves, but I’ve been spinning my wheels on this for well over a week, and I just didn’t want to keep delaying the release of the file. If I can come up with more helpful instructions, I’ll shoot out another update and pass them on.

In the meantime, if any of you have any insight, or find a way to easily install this on a phone or iPad, pass on your advice on The Commandarie Discord server!

Thanks again!
