Q Audiobooks: Where to Find Free Audiobook Codes

Welcome to the return of Q Audiobooks, a regular feature offering audiobooks of interest for the LGBTQ+ listener.

As someone who has published 12 audiobooks, I understand the attraction of providing free download codes for audiobook fans and the authors and narrators who keep them listening. I’ve given away well over 1,000 audiobook codes over the ten years I’ve been making audiobook editions available for my books, and I have two sites to recommend. I’ve used both of them to great effect, and if you search “LGBTQ” you’ll even find a lot of the audiobooks in your favorite not-so-mainstream genres. Codes are specific to each book and can only be redeemed at ACX/Audible links provided when you get the code (US or UK), or on the Authors Direct app if you’re getting a code from Findaway Voices.

In most cases you simply click on the audiobook you want and a code pops up for you to redeem. And while no one is required to provide reviews, it’s a nice thing to do for the author and narrator in exchange for a free audiobook. Personally, I’m just happy to have reached so many new listeners. Fasten your headphones!

FreeAudiobookCodes.com 

This is a bare-bones site with hundreds of audiobook codes available from a wide variety of genres and subjects, from business and technology, to urban fantasy, to true crime and romance. It’s the second generation of AudioBook Boom, a site I’d used in the past. This is cleaner, faster, and completely hassle-free.

AudioFreebies.com

 For a greater offering of content, you can try AudioFreebies.com. Run by founder Amy, the site offers codes in a variety of ways: no-strings (you click on the book and get the code), “review priority,” in which you promise to provide a review, and a third choice that sends a confidential notice to the author and the author sends you the code directly.

You can also find interviews and audio with select narrators.
