Some are very good, I think they work best for books you’ve already read.
Some great ones are
A Song of Ice and Fire Series - Roy Dotrice
The Dresden Files - James Marsters
Harry Potter Series - Jim Dale
Discworld - Nigel Planer
Stephen King uses various readers and it shows. Some are great some are lousy. The one’s he reads himself are pretty good.
Hey, you, zombywoof and I should maybe start a fan club.
Wow! I hadn’t known McCullough did audiobooks of his own stuff. He’s got a great voice; his narrations of the Ken Burns documentaries back the day were always good. I’m inordinately proud of the fact that he and I graduated from the same prep school (many years apart).
James Marsters can’t pronounce “chitinous” or “impotent,” but other than that I’ve enjoyed listening.
