Have you ever stopped listening to an audiobook because the tone of the narrator was so annoying? (sh.itjust.works)

I definitely noped out of a sci-fi audiobook (can't recall the title) a few minutes into one. And I hated the one Expanse book that was narrated by Erik Davis - it was like listening to a robot.

All. The. Time.

A good Narrator can make a mediocre book enjoyable, and a poor Narrator can make a great book unbearable.

Somehow, the right Narrator just kind of syncs up with my mind and the story just flows in. Otherwise you have to actually focus on listening which can be tedious.

On the audible website you can search by Narrator.
