Bloodhound Books partners with Dreamscape Media to expand audiobook titles 

Cambridge-based indie Bloodhound Books has announced a first-look audiobook agreement with audiobook publisher Dreamscape Media. 

The partnership aims to bring Bloodhound Books’ upcoming titles to the audiobook world, while “further enriching Dreamscape’s diverse catalogue of award-winning audiobooks” according to a press statement.  

Under their new publishing partnership, Dreamscape Media – in coordination with Bloodhound Books and Hannah Whitaker at Rights People – will produce and publish a minimum of five audiobook titles per month from Bloodhound Book’s front list catalogue, starting in April 2024. All audiobooks produced and published under the new partnership will receive global audio sales and distribution. 

Dreamscape and Bloodhound Books have partnered previously on several audiobook titles, including The Perfect Marriage, by Jeneva Rose, and Dying to Tell by Keri Beevis. 

"Dreamscape Media is very happy to embark on this exciting venture with Bloodhound Books. By bringing their compelling fiction titles into the realm of audiobooks, we aim to enhance the accessibility and enjoyment of these stories for our diverse audience," said Sean McManus, president and publisher at Dreamscape Media. 

Betsy Reavley, director and founder at Bloodhound Books, added: "With a booming audiobook market, this opportunity has come at a fantastic time. Being connected to as many readers and listeners as possible is vital and this arrangement will introduce our books to new audiences. Having worked successfully with Dreamscape on many titles over the years, this new agreement will allow both the e-book and audiobook to be made available to readers simultaneous, which is brilliant news for our talented authors. Dreamscape Media have an unrivalled reputation, and we know our authors work is in the best hands."
