     These six titles are as far as I know the only Nevil Shute novels to be released on CDs. 


   
   

So Disdained [1928]   7 hours 47 mins, read by Stephen Thorne.
'So Disdained', published in the
United States as 'The Mysterious Aviator' was the second of nevil Shute's books to be published.
Late one
rainy night in 1927 Peter Moran, a country estate manager, is driving across rural Sussex and picks up a bedraggled
pedestrian. He is startled to find that his passenger is an old wartime comrade from the Royal Flying Corps. It quickly
develops that the man has crash landed a long distance bomber after a strange and rather treasonable mission. Moran's
friend suffers an attack of malaria, and while recovering under Moran's care, tells everything, including how his
loyalties became divided and what caused him to seek employment as an aviator in post-revolutionary Russia. Moran and
the young mistress of the estate, the love interest in the story, become involved in trying to right a series of wrongs.
Unexpected events test Moran's loyalty as well, and culminate in a desperate race across France and into Fascist Italy.
This is clearly an early work of Shute's, and is not without flaws. Yet, it holds the reader's interest. Dedicated fans
of Nevil Shute are treated to an early rendering of the master's work, and see his talents as a story teller taking
shape. There is an interesting undertone of social unrest in the background further developed in some of Shute's later
works.

Ordeal [1939]   6 hours 41 mins, 32 kbps / 22 kHz,   read by  Ian Stuart.  
Nevil
Shute wrote this prophetic novel just before the start of the Second World War. In it he describes the devastation that
results from an aerial bomb attack on Southampton that destroys the city's infrastructure and leaves the inhabitants at
the mercy of cholera and further assaults. The story follows the trials and tribulations of the Corbett family as they
struggle to get to safety. (Also known as "What Happened to the Corbetts?")

 A Town Like
Alice [1950]  10 hours 20 mins, read by  Robin Bailey.
Jean Paget has survived World War II as a
prisoner of the Japanese in Malaya. After the war she comes into an inheritance that enables her to return to Malaya to
repay the villagers who helped her to survive. But her return visit changes her life again, when she discovers that an
Australian soldier she thought had died has survived. She goes to Australia in search of him and of the town he
described to her. Jean sets out to apply the same determination that helped her to survive the war, to turning the
community into 'a town like Alice'. She finds both her soldier and romance.

 Round the Bend [1951] 
13 hours 18 mins , read by John Telfer.   
Tom Cutter, tired after World War II and the loss of his wife (he
blames himself for her suicide), comes to the Persian Gulf to begin a small-scale aviation business. He throws himself
into the business and makes a success of it. The business really takes off after he hires childhood friend Connie
Shaklin as chief engineer, and soon after, Connie's sister Nadezna, as his secretary. But Cutter soon notices--Shaklin
is giving semi-religious talks as he works, which are attracting attention and support not only from his co-workers, but
from the Arab population, as they previously did in Cambodia, and when Shaklin is forced to go to Indonesia, again, he
attracts attention and support, somewhat to the confusion of Cutter, who nevertheless is unfailing in his support of
Shaklin, who seems to be beginning a religion that crosses religious boundaries...

 On The Beach
[1957]  8 hours 55 mins, read by James Smillie.
First published back in 1957 `On the Beach' was one of the
last novels by the British-Australian author Nevil Shute, before his death in January of 1960. With the eventual end of
WWII still fresh in everyone's minds, Shute produced a powerful post-apocalyptic tale set during the after effects of a
very short lived and devastating WWIII. Shute sets off the novel, setting down the scenario of the northern hemisphere
now void of all life due to a massive nuclear warfare between Russia and China.
The story follows the final months
of an Australian navel officer named Peter Holmes and the American navel captain Dwight Towers, who are amongst the last
of the human race based in Australia, before the nuclear fallout eventually and inevitably reaches them. As the book
continues, the nuclear powered submarine USS Scorpion is taken on a few final missions in order to ascertain whether
life is at all possible on the planet going forwards, whether the radioactive fallout is subsiding at all and whether or
not there are any survivors left anywhere else. Shute carefully subjects the reader to the seemingly surreal reaction
the last of the human race have towards their imminent extinction.

Stephen Morris and Pilotage [1961] 
9 hours 40 mins, read by Gordon Griffin.
These two linked novels have flying as a shared theme and were
written in 1923 and 1924 but not published until 1961.  Stephen Morris was the first of the two books with Pilotage
written as a follow on.  They are presented together due to the connection between the two stories.  In Stephen Morris
we see the eponymous hero leaving Oxford University unable to marry his girl because of a lack of prospects. He starts
as a mechanic and a pilot at a friend's aerodrome business hoping to make his fortune.  In Pilotage, Stephen's young
navigator Pete Dennison is struggling with exactly the same problem.  He is to start as a junior partner at a firm in
China. The woman he wishes to marry can't accept his proposal if it means going to live in Hong Kong. Dennison has to
find a way to make money and marry. These two early novels draw on Nevil Shute's own experiences as a young engineer.
