Post #89: "It's Abridged I Tell You!" - Audiobook Issues

So ... I fully admit that I am a middle-aged fusspot, but hey, somebody's got to be. The latest example of this is my use of Audible, Amazon's audiobook site, which I have a rolling annual subscription to, loving as I do, the ability to listen to my favourite books, narrated by talented members of the acting profession anyplace, any time, anywhere.

One of my favourite authors is the late, great Ruth Rendell, who wrote a series of psychological novels under the pseudonym, Barbara Vine and with the exception of one title The House of Stairs, are all available to purchase on the Audible Android app.  Me being me, of course I've read each one at least twice in print form and thereby lies the rub, Gallowglass was missing the final one or two chapters, thus completely changing the conclusion of the novel.  I don't currently have my paperback edition to hand as I think that it's languishing in the loft, along with a whole load of the rest of my books, but in the 'unabridged' audiobook, they're definitely missing.

I am currently on the telephone to Audible about this and they've promised to 'escalate it to their back office!'  A total first world problem I know, but I'm an Aspie.
