The 7th Son Trilogy Experience (2006-2007 Legacy Feed)

In the final episode of 7th Son, Book Three: Destruction, listeners were treated to a mixed audio montage of the anthems heard in the 7th Son trilogy. Fans of the series requested a stand-alone version of that experience, and now J.C. Hutchins can release it into the wild. This audio was brilliantly mixed by Destruction's producer, Shawn Bishop, and features these songs: "Afraid This Time" by Celldweller (Intro) "Purple" by Ethic (Book One: Descent anthem) "Switchback" by Celldweller (Book Two: Deceit anthem) "Symbiont" by Celldweller (Book Three: Destruction anthem) Enjoy!ShareThis

Fans of 7th Son, Book Three: Destruction may remember a brilliant audio recording that first saw light back in December 2007, when author J.C. Hutchins chatted with Destruction's producer, Shawn Bishop. In that Q#38;A episode, Shawn presented a masterfully-mixed, hilarious "blooper reel" of a flummoxed -- and very foul-mouthed -- Hutchins as he tried to read various parts of the novel. Hutchins' readings may be very good indeed in the 7th Son audiobooks ... but there's many a mis-speak between mic and final mixdown. Listeners requested a stand-alone audio file of this blooper reel, and -- after receiving permission from Celldweller to release the file into the wild (Celldweller provides the "soundtrack" for the experience) -- they can now listen to it in all its snarky glory. Be warned: four-letter words abound.ShareThis

Have a great holiday, everybody! Music brilliantly performed by Shawn Bishop. ShareThis
