A lot of that is the narrator Isaac Send a noteboard - 29/09/2009 04:36:47 PM
I have all the audiobooks, and they are all read by Michael Kramer and Kate Reading, it's harder for me to notice the differences between RJ and BS on account of that. They both have the characters they are reading down, those audiobooks are over three hundred hours long and are produced after much reading and many cuts and redos. I've listened to them enough now that I can usually pick out which character has the POV based of the narrator's tones. They read them a little bit different, and to me, I thought the prologue sounded the least like RJ just because I heard the audio cuts for CH 1 and 2, and the voices and tones were exactly wha I'm used to.

Agreed, but only because of the incredibly slow audio reading. FORTY-FIVE minutes for ONE chapter!!! *NM* - 25/09/2009 06:08:27 AM 1067 Views
