I'm always asked again how much text will be reduced for the audio books or changed. Because I have just looked through the cuts for the third STORM KINGS-band (click to enlarge) here once a typical example page. All in all, about 40 percent of audio book text be shorter than the original.
Here you can see quite clearly, chop for passages (descriptions, dialogues), where records are changed ("In the distance, lightning flashed" stands in the novel further below) or even how - and this is my special hair the soup in such arrangements - Wortdopplungen incurred, for example, there now stands within two lines twice, the word "genies" to make space for a longer clause was deleted. Sometimes I fish out those cosmetic things, but because I lack the time to examine every detail of that has changed the Maintainer, certainly much sashayed by.
