They'll probably just make them ebooks like Glass Prison and Squire's Crystal Yeah, I don’t know if there’s enough demand for them to re-release them in physical form. Yeah thats what i was thinking. do the ebooks come as PDF's?

Help please! I'm sort of working backwards with Benny - Unbounds (check), other box sets (part-check), oh yes and series 1 (check).
Which leaves the treasure-trove of single-release stories in series 2-11
Now I know I should do these properly and in order, but (oh my wallet) just for now with the sale on are there a few 'series 2-11 sampler highlights' that anyone could suggest please?
Stories which are A) extra-amazing and B) relatively standalone. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Or if they are so interconnected that one must start at the beginning and work through, that would also be good to know!
The E-book The Squire's Crystal sets up Series 3
Series 4 is fun a load of one off Who "Villains" return
Series 6-8 heavily linked
Series 9 you can catch your breath before Series 10 and 11.
Regards

The ones Big Finish published digitally are available in Mobi and ePub format. The Squire’s Crystal and The Glass Prison also have a PDF version available. Early books are in physical version only.

Thanks Mark! Great advice as usual
I topped up my basket with series 4 (it does look fun) and a couple from series 9, plus I've now completed my Benny box sets collection. One day I'll do them all in order properly, but at least it's a start on 'early Benny'!

Yay! Benny is awesome. Definitely! I'm currently enjoying listening to 'True Stories' very much.
In a way that I think the Prof. would approve of as an archeologist, I seem to have started at 'now' and be working my way down through the layers of Benny's life. First I heard 'New Benny' (so brilliant, the Sutekh boxset is in my BF top 20 and I thought 'The Ruler of the Universe' boxset was excellent how the story unfolded and looped round) then I started collecting the sets from 'Epoch', and then got Series 1, and now starting to fill in the rest.
I haven't actually heard Series 1 yet. Not (only!) because of my considerable BF backlog but with the 20th coming up I decided to save them for now and so they will be a one a month treat over the winter.

So I got Series 2-4 in the sale and now am having the horrible time of waiting for the CD's to arrive, anyone else not having their stuff shipped out yet? I get that it's probably because it was a sale and hard to get everything out immediately, but impatience is a vice of mine.

I almost ended up getting them all except for series 2 and 3 including all the box sets so am not expecting an email anytime soon maybe a disgruntled employee email 😂

They probably won't send mine for weeks then Series 1-11, box sets 1-5, and half a dozen other, smaller releases will take them forever to pack and ship...

I really want the download rights to get cleared up. I just finished ripping all of S1-11 today, so expect downloads to be announced sometime this week. (That's my luck in general, and also what happened with Gallifrey.)

And ripped all the Gallifrey CDs to my computer long before they became available as downloads (though I'm happy the downloads are now available).

When they do get the rights sorted I wonder if they will still give those who ordered the CDs free downloads They almost always do. The only case I can recall where they didn't was The Adventures of Luther Arkwright. Some kind of rights issue. But I ended up getting the download when it went on sale, even though I already had the CD.

I have to offload the ones I'm done with to an external hard drive. I have one dedicated to just audio downloads. At least till it fills up, then I suppose I'll have to buy "Volume 2" external hard drive.
