The Ascendant Story
Ascendant Audio, LLC was founded in 2005. Our audiobooks first hit market internationally in 2006 in digital download format on Audible.com & iTunes.com and in CD format through Amazon. In 2007, we began digital distribution through Overdrive, a library download service that is available in 7,500 libraries all over the world. We distribute physical product through select stores such as Agia Sophia, All Things Catholic, Aquinas and More, The Guardian Angel Bookstore, and Celebrations bookstore.
Our audiobooks are unique in several ways. Our narrators have been chosen for their outstanding voices and experience in the radio and film worlds. Our packaging has been designed with a unique and collectible style, featuring exclusive artwork. Each audiobook looks like a miniature book that will complement the books on your shelves. Most importantly, our titles are chosen for value and repeated listening; books that give enjoyment over the long term. The works feature original music that adds to the listener’s enjoyment and clearly delineates chapters and sections. In 2011, we are continuing to research more titles with an environmental bent, as our 2010 Emerson on Nature production was quite well-received. Though we have insisted on premium packaging, excellent narrators, original music, and superb audio production values, we have nonetheless managed to keep an affordable price point.
