ERATONE
Think Netflix, but for books and audiobooks

The commute is dead time. Unless someone is telling you how Rome fell.

Rulers and rebels, explorers and inventors, empires rising and falling, playing in your ears while you cook, drive or walk. A hundred years of history writing, meeting you inside the life you already have.

Start listening free

3 free books this month, no card.

One membership, your whole family

Think Netflix, but for books: one subscription, unlimited listening and reading, with six apps instead of five profiles.

Audible gives you one credit a month. We give you the whole library: 3,250 audiobooks and 3,949 ebooks, ad free, across Healtone, Calmtone, Cluetone, Eratone, Littletone and NaturaRead. Nobody at home shares a shelf or a queue, because everyone opens the app that suits them on the same membership. Littletone, our children's app, included at no extra cost.

Why six apps instead of one

Six apps instead of five profiles

One person is winding down at midnight. Another wants to understand their own body. Another wants a mystery, or a century of history. Putting all of that into one crowded shelf helps nobody, so we built focused libraries instead, each with its own mood and its own front door.

One membership opens them all. Everyone at home signs in with the same account and picks the app that suits them, so there is no shared queue, no fighting over what plays next, and no recommendations built from somebody else's taste. Each person keeps their own place in their own book.

Health for one. Sleep for another. Stories for another. History for another. One subscription, many ways to use it.

South! The Story of Shackleton's Last Expedition 1914-1917

South! The Story of Shackleton's Last Expedition 1914-1917

Ernest Shackleton's own telling of the ill-fated Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition, when the Endurance was crushed by ice and his men were stranded at the bottom of the world. The open-boat voyage to South Georgia and the rescue of every man remains one of history's great survival stories. Unforgettable for any admirer of polar courage.

Not one credit. The whole shelf.

Unlimited means unlimited

Audible made the credit feel normal: one book a month, and if you finish it in a week you wait. We do not think daily listening fits a once a month model, so there is nothing to ration here. Open the app and listen or read as much as you want.

Their yearly membership is $149.50 for twelve credits. Ours is $149 for everything, in six apps, for the whole household.

If you only want one audiobook a month, Audible is very good at that. If you want the door left open, this is built differently.

Eratone Plus

Members get even more

Never wonder if it is worth $1.99

Follow a curiosity into the fall of an empire at midnight, abandon it by morning, start three more. Nothing costs extra, so nothing needs deciding.

The book waits exactly where you left it

Stop mid-sentence in the car, pick it up mid-sentence at the sink. Phone, tablet, computer. Slower when it is dense, faster when it is not.

Watch the hours add up to something

The books you finish are counted, and the quiet hours you spent turn into a record you can look back at.

Automatically renews. Cancel anytime. Books you purchase stay yours forever, member or not.

A few things we want you to know

Our books are narrated by AI voices, and we are proud of it. We cast them the way a studio casts actors: warm, steady, easy to follow for hours, and matched to the kind of book they read. It is what lets us record a library this size, keep adding to it every week, and still charge a few dollars a month. You can meet every voice on our narrators page. We would rather tell you now than have you wonder later.

The library grows every week. New titles arrive constantly across all six apps, audiobooks and ebooks together. You are not buying a fixed shelf, you are joining one that keeps filling.

You may find small imperfections. A word read a touch quickly, or a sentence where the tone shifts because we repaired it after the original take. We would rather spend our hours bringing you more books than re-recording one that is already almost right, and that choice is part of what keeps the price where it is.

No ads. Not now, not later. Paying members never hear an advertisement. That is a promise, not a campaign.

Cancel anytime, keep what you own. Books you buy outright stay yours for good, whether you subscribe or not. Memberships renew until you switch them off, and we email you before every renewal so nothing is ever a surprise.

Why we built this

We started by making a better listening and reading experience for our own books, because the ones we could buy were built for collectors of single titles and not for people who listen while they cook, drive, garden or fall asleep.

Then it grew. One shelf became six, each with its own mood, and the whole thing became what we wished existed: unlimited access, calm discovery, and a membership a household can actually share. We are a small independent publisher in Laval, Canada, not a platform, and every book here was chosen by someone who wanted to hear it.

Why Eratone

Every era has a voice

Many of these books were written by people who stood inside the events they describe, and the rest by writers who spent a lifetime understanding them. On Eratone that testimony sits between your ears: real lives, real events, no noise, no feeds, and you are the judge of every account. Listen while you cook, walk, or drive, and count the books you finish each month. Buy a book once and keep it forever, or stream the whole store with Eratone Plus.
