    Lifelode is the Mythopoeic Award Winning novel from Hugo, Nebula and World Fantasy Award winning author Jo Walton. It was published in hardcover in 2009 by NESFA Press and is now available for the first time as an audio book. 
    At its heart, Lifelode is the story of a comfortable manor house family. The four adults of the household are happily polyamorous, each fulfilling their ‘lifelode’ or life’s purpose: Ferrand is the lord of the manor, his sweetmate Taveth runs the household, his wife Chayra makes ceramics, and Taveth’s husband Ranal works the farm. Their children are a joyful bunch, running around in the sunshine days of the harvest and wondering what their own lifelodes will be. 
    Their lives changed with the arrival of two visitors to Applekirk: Jankin the scholar and Hanethe, Ferrand’s great grandmother and the former lord of the manor, who has been living for many generations in the East, a place where the gods walk and yeya (magic) is so powerful that those who wield it are not quite human.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
    When you can do only one good deed a day, you have to choose wisely. After being blamed for the accidental death of a Gypsy boy-scout, Otis is cursed: he can do no more than one good deed a day. But the curse was cast all wrong. Gypsy boy-scout merit badges were mixed in, resulting in Otis having unusual super skills, such as knife-throwing, fortune-telling, dentistry, salesmanship, and marksmanship, among some of the many. However, these super skills vanish once he's done his good deed of the day. Can Otis overcome the stigma of a person incapable of doing more than good deed a day, win back his girl-friend, and use his super-enhanced skills to stop the chaos created by twitter flash mobs?
