I’ve been listening to Joe Pera to help me fall asleep lately and I want to expand my horizons a bit.
He has a quiet, thoughtful and deliberate voice and I’d like to hear someone similar. Doesn’t really matter what genre they cover - just minimal/no smut, haha.
Thank you for any suggestions! I really appreciate it 🙂
Jefferson Mays, narrates the Expanse, and many other things. I like him so much I listened to a book I didn't like at all just to keep hearing him. Robin Miles, haven't listened to her in a while, should find something. I love when she does African accents.
If you like southern voices, Rick Bragg is my Unisom.
I laughed at the Unisom!! Thanks!!
John Lee
I love John Lee, some people really don't. I think he may be my most listened narrator, almost by coincidence. He just happens to read a lot of things I'm interested in that are very long.
For quiet/deliberate, I’d start with Bob Neufeld (very measured) and Mark F. Smith on LibriVox — both solo and no chaotic cast
British, anyone??? Try Simon Vance. I'll read anything narrated by him.
Joel Richards
Chiwetel Ejiofor is the narrator of Piranesi by Susanna Clarke. He has a very soothing voice.
Came here to recommended this one. I love the book, but the narration just really elevates it. Chiwetel Ejiofor is incredible
I’m commenting so I can come back to this. The narrator is SO important. I don’t have any I’m super attached to but I get so angry at books I really want to listen to but they are virtual voice.
you can save post too. those three little dots in upper right corner has drop down menu.
I'm kind of loving Gerard Doyle reading Christopher Paolini's Eragon.
Like westerns? Rodney Turner.
Chris Ciulla. He does the Bob and Nikki series of Bob’s Saucer Repair. I go right to sleep!!
Richard Burton reading Under Milk Wood by Dylan Thomas is my favourite.
The best!
Nicholas Boulton reading literally anything.
