After a very very long hiatus I've decided to come back to collecting the Benny CD's and books. For reference I collected through the third season of the Benny single releases before lack of money drove me to give them up. I also wanted to look into getting the books again. I looked at the second on Big Finish's website and it appears to be a comprehensive list. They've even listed ones that have gone out of print. The only issue is that I have a copy of a book titled A Life of Surprises that isn't on the list on Big Finish's web page. That means that they don't list every Benny book, so I was wondering if someone knows where there is a comprehensive list. I'll use it to track down any books that I can't buy directly from Big Finish.

There was a pretty comprehensive discussion of Benny books and the listening/reading order in this thread.

I think originally Big Finish removed books that were out of print from their website listing of books for sale altogether. At some point they changed to annotating out of print books with this message: "THIS BOOK IN CURRENTLY OUT OF PRINT AND APPEARS ON THE WEBSITE FOR INFORMATION ONLY." But they didn't books that were out of print and removed from the website previously back on the list with that same message, for some unknown reason. Maybe it slipped their notice.

Also the original The Squire's Crystal, Dead Man Diaries, and the original The Glass Prison. I assumed with the Squire's Crystal and Glass Prison that they just moved the original entries when they added the Ebook option. Still a good point about the Infernal Nexus and Dead Men Diaries. I already had all of those early books, so I didn't look at those as closely as the later ones.

I already had all of those early books, so I didn't look at those as closely as the later ones. Nope. The entries for The Squire's Crystal and The Glass Prison were not on the website when I bought the other paperback Big Finish Benny books. They recreated the entries when the ebooks came out. I got a few of the books that were out of print at the time I bought them through third party sellers (and one was given to me). I ordered A Life Worth Living during a BF Benny sale, but soon realized that it had gone out of print during the sale and that I would not be getting it, so I quickly ordered a copy from a third party seller before the price could go up on it as an out of print book. Pleased to say I got a copy in excellent condition at a reasonable price. But on the BF website, I have still have a green bar on that book stating I bought it from them on a certain date. (That's actually happened to me a few times with things I ordered on sale from BF which then went out of print.)

Whatever happened to the original paperback listing of The Infernal Nexus? On the Big Finish website, you mean? If that's what you're talking about, it's not listed because it's been out of print for a long time. Big Finish removed out of print books from the website, at least that was the case when I first started buying Benny books, but at some point they started leaving the listing on the website with a notation saying the book is out of print. The Infernal Nexus went out of print way before they started doing that. It's actually discussed upthread.
