I have Jade City on Kindle but couldn’t resist picking it up on audio too after seeing it was on offer. Thanks for the recommendation!

Listening to The First Law books narrated by Steven Pacey is the best audiobook experience by far.

My favourite fantasy is The Witcher, also probably the only fantasy that I've consumed in the last decade (big fan of the games, books beautifully enhance the experience and vice versa). Audiobooks are masterfully narrated by Peter Kenny, one of my favourite narrators.

I very highly recommend Joe Abercrombie's First Law series on audio. Stephen Pacey might be the best narrator I've ever heard. That and it's also my favorite fantasy series.

I've heard such good things about the audio versions of those. Pacey narrated a horror book (Let the Right One In) that I really loved

Great video! Jade City is so good on audio and it was interesting to hear you struggled with Michael Kramer’s narration - I did too, and wasn’t sure if it was the book or him. Might give Sanderson another go. Andy Serkis narration of Lord of the Rings is amazing and I personally highly recommend it!

Thank you for the recommendations. I think you might enjoy the "Rivers of London" urban fantasy series. Excellent stories with an outstanding narrator. Happy reading 😀

Thank you for this video. I find fantasy audio books difficult to follow sometimes and all these sound great. I’m especially interested in Black Sun, Jade City, and Phoenix Extravagant.

I dont know how to explain how much I hated the Poppy War. The audiobook was so well done i couldnt stop, but i hated the main character!
@joeyloefflerjr Жыл бұрын
I have listened to Sword of Kaigen and the sequel to Poppy War and do think both were better as an audiobook than a physical book. I've listened to Jade Setter of Janloon (not Jade City), but not sure if I preferred it over reading it.

Yeah I definitely think the narration uplifted the story. And I loved the Jade Trilogy but didn't like that novella very much so it might not have been the narration

Read Black Sun and it was somewhat difficult to follow. It sounds like with voice actors this would be a good experience in audiobook format.
