Final Fantasy VIII - The Audio Saga
Project Overview
This is an audio book/drama for the novelization of Final Fantasy VIII - A Lionheart Saga, written by UnholyCrusada. The novel follows the original events that take place in the game with mostly minor changes and some that do it's best to retell the story in a written format.

I'm working alongside the author and I'm looking for some voice actors who are willing to devote themselves to a potentially big project. For right now this is an experiment that I am hoping to find the fuel and resources to make an audible resource for the FF8 fan base and/or others who are curious to experience it in a new format.
== The goal is to release 6~ Chapters by the end of 2025 on Youtube and possibly other platforms to support the author's work and give some spotlight and exposure to the hard working actors involved. I will then take a break and hope to get some feedback to see if this is something the community would want to see more of. ==
This is an UNPAID project. I appreciate and respect everyone's time involved!
Even if you are a fan of the game and would like to be involved or voice other characters, I invite you to reach out to me so we may discuss your skill sets.
