Normally, this isn’t something I really focus on, but I’ve been listening to John Ringo’s Black Tide Rising series and Tristan Morris is amazing as a narrator. He does an extremely good job with different accents, ranging from southern US to British, Canadians, French, and what I assume to be Nepalese (there are Gurkhas in the story).

Anyone else have a narrator that really stood out as making the listen even better?


ETA: This is a different topic for this board.

I haven't heard the one you mentioned but Tom Stechschulte is very good. He did No Country for Old Men, the Road, Shutter Island, and The Left Hand of Darkness; that I've noticed so far.

Christian Rummel is an insanely good narrator. His voice work is such that you can instantly tell who's talking simply by what voice he uses.

He also narrates a lot of sci-fi, so I get to listen to him a lot.

Jonathon Keeble is great as Bernard Cornwell's Utrid and his Arthur series.

Robin Sachs was phenomenal with this book. I’ve listened to it three times, even though it’s big. Just the perfect voice for English history.

This audiobook is also a pleasure to listen to thanks to the whimsical voice of the narrator.

Back when npr didn't suck so bad there was a guy who was reading Gods and Angels every afternoon in my drive home.

Wish I could remember his name because he was amazing.

David McCullough in addition to being a great author is the GOAT narrator.

I enjoy Paul Michael's productions of the Dan Brown Langdon books

Jeremy Irons did the Alchemist and was magnificent.

For British lit, Martin Freeman does excellent with the hitchhikers series

I hear the actor from Remember the Titans, Will Patton, is outstanding as an audiobook narrator.

Stephen Fry did an incredible job with the Harry Potter series. He's the best I've heard so far of about 200 audiobooks I've listened to.

Steven Pacey does the voices for Joe Abercromies books. He does an amazing job with the voices for each charter. Think he may have done Gates of Fire as well if not that guy was good too.
