Ellen teamed up with Sue Zizza of SueMedia Productions to create a unique, innovative blend of soundscape, original music and actors that Zizza dubbed “Illuminated” audiobooks.  “It’s as if,” Kushner explains, “you fall asleep hearing me read, and start dreaming that the book has come to life.”

The series, produced for Neil Gaiman Presents, includes a full score of original music commissioned just for this series by composer Nathanael Tronerud that interweaves themes from book to book.

In an interview in AudioFile Magazine (August 2013), producer Sue Zizza and co-authors Ellen Kushner & Delia Sherman discuss bringing the Riverside series to audio.
