Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

On the topic of Will Wheaton narrating audiobooks, do I understand correctly that the version of The Martian narrated by R.C. Bray is no longer available to purchase on Audible and is now replaced by one done by Wheaton?

I activately look for books narrated by R. C. Bray. I love his style. And he nailed the downeast Maine accent in Expeditionary Force.

R. C. Bray has a great voice. He should narrate audio books.

Wild that they'd replace an excellent voice actor with a incredibly mediocre one.

But Wil is famous so ...

The real weird thing is the cover art provided with the R. C. Bray version published by Podium Publishing is the movie poster with Matt Damon's face on it, the current version narrated by Wheaton uses the original book cover of space suit b/w orange.
