</italic></color>Hello Brian,


The best place for unabridged recordings of books is the Recorded 
Books company.  I checked their website at 
http://www.recordedbooks.com, and searched for all the available 
Jules Verne titles.  'Island' was not among them, in fact, they had 
only three:  _Around the World in Eighty Days_, _Journey to the 
Centre of the Earth_, and _Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the 
Sea_.


There may be other places to search, but my gut feeling is that if 
Recorded Books hasn't done 'Island' then nobody else has either.
