I have it backed up in a Google drive so I can send the link or dm it to people if sending direct links isn't allowed

Edit: I'm unsure how to upload to AudiobookBay but I know people there would really appreciate it

Edit: After a really long time I finally stopped being lazy and figured out how to upload the book to ABB myself.

I actually managed to find mine a while ago.

I pirate a lot of hard sci-fi/cyberpunk audiobooks using stuff like Mobilism or AudiobookBay and using Sirin Audiobook Player to listen to them, one of the first series I added to my library was the Takeshi Kovacs trilogy by Richard K. Morgan.

See everything was fine with the first two books (Altered Carbon and Broken Angels) which were readily avaliable on both those sites, but it was the final book Woken Furies that I was really after, reason being there were two versions: One was everywhere I looked and is narrated by William Dufris and the other that I was actually looking for is by Todd McLaren.

Basically people really hated how the first version by William sounded (there was an unnecessary reverb effect in some parts and he pronounces the main character's name wrong throughout the whole book) to a point they started a petition to get Todd McLaren (who did the first two books) to redo the final one. McLaren actually says the guy's name right in all the books and generally is a better narrator, also the weird reverb effects were gone.

It took months of searching but I eventually found it through Mobilism (second result in the image), using a burner e mail I got a free trail of their premium service to directly download the file. Now I can rest easy knowing I have all three books read by the same person.
