Dangerous Words -- The A&D Narrator Contest

At last count I'd received over twenty auditions for narrating the audio book for Armed & Dangerous, the collected Dangerous Ground novellas. And about six of those auditions were quite good. Good enough that I could happily have gone with any of the narrators. In fact, they were so good that it became really hard to choose, and I decided maybe it would be fun for you readers to choose.

Anyway, we've made a contest page on my website where you can listen to those six auditions, and even vote for the narrator of your choice.

The webpage is loaded now, though the voting does not begin until Monday.

  2. Oh my, this is hard. All six are very good. I've managed to narrow it down to 4 so far. Off for another listen to try to get it down to 3!

    1. Well, but you can still have an opinion about the voices and whether you would like to listen to them. :-)

    2. Oh, okay, I just thought it would be better to decide if the narrator tells the story appropriate. But I have my one favorite one of the six. =)

    3. Some people will only know the story through the audio book. :-)

  7. That was fun, but hard to narrow it down. Got my three favorites, though. Hope you get some distinct choices out of this, they were all so good.

    1. Not really. Which is why it seemed such a great notion to toss it out to readers.
      :-)

      I think they all do a great job.
