A while ago I listened to The Fourth Tower of Inverness and enjoyed it immensely. Are any of the other radio series from ZBS Media and Meatball Fulton worth it (particularly the subsequent Jack Flanders stories), or was Fourth Tower the pinnacle? The sound samples on their site are awfully short and the sets are a bit expensive for a blind buy.

YES. I have most of the Flanders series now and would particularly recommend Moon Over Morocco and Return to Inverness. And ZBS is a non-profit group well worth supporting with your purchases (IMO).

Well, you were right about Kaki King... Moon Over Morocco was the one I was thinking of picking up next.

They taped all the ambient sounds IN Morocco, then added the vocals. It's nice.

I grew up listening to Moon Over Morocco with my parents. Thanks for reminding me that I need to give it an adult listen.

Allah be praised — these figs!
