Who pronounces Suian "See - you - won"?


I've never listened to the audiobooks myself but have often wished I had some of them, usually while driving for a long time with my fat WOT book riding shotgun. It seems almost unbelievable that audiobooks made for such a long, amazing story would be so bad that they couldn't even get pronunciations right.

But...

I see that someone — anonymous — uses the audio book pronunciations for a guide. In the very beginning, the actors doing the reading got in touch with me about pronunciations, but they stopped halfway through reading The Eye of the World, and I haven’t heard from them since. So I wouldn’t go too much by what they use.
