A brand new audio production is out - it's title is "Lovely War". It's a new book written by best-selling author Julie Berry and published by Penguin Random House Audio Publishing.
Lovely War is a beautiful historical fiction story. The lush story begins during World War II when Greek goddess Aphrodite is put on trial by her husband Hephaestus. With the help of a few other Greek gods (Apollo, Hades, and Ares), she shares her two favorite love stories that she was a part of during World War I: that of Hazel and James and another between Colette and Aubrey.
This is what Nat says about his part “I read the part of Ares—always fun to play a God! I was genuinely surprised at the subtlety and strength of the writing. The truth of war is rarely approached with such honesty, which means it’s gruesomeness was refreshing. That’s quite a talent and a gift from the author to us. Not hearing the other readers is often a bit unnerving because you don’t know how you fit in, but you just trust the director and get on with it. Exciting.” There's also a sample of Nat's reading to listen to via this link.

Just a quick note to one and all, and particularly those who tweet or instathingy or faceachebook, please look up and like this BRILLIANT new book by Sadie Jones.
There will be some who remember she wrote The Outcast, and is an old friend. I'm sure there are pics of us both in the gallery. She has written another fantastic novel/thriller. It really is gripping, only lacking in there being no part for your truly. But please spread the word, and of course, read the book. Updates soon on Annabel Lee. Angel was finishing her ADR tonight. She is a complete natural. So proud.

Hello Everyone, As January expands to it's limits, I thought I would say hello. So Hello. Waking up this morning, London is rather beautiful, for a city. I have to admit that on mornings like this, frosty and crisp, I do rather miss our home in Gloucestershire. We had a good few years there and it was one of the most beautiful areas of all England for me, but most of all, on these mornings it reminded me of Narnia. The cars and workmen here, remind me it is in fact London. Also when I woke this morning, I was sent an article in The Times Diary column by a young guy called Patrick who I spoke to at the Costa awards.
