Allyson Johnson. She's the reader of the David Weber Honor Harrington books, and she definitely does not improve the books. The choice of accents are totally inappropriate and jarring. On the plus side, her sense of pace is good, and the books do flow well. But hokey accents for characters just doesn't cut it. There are lots of ways to differentiate characters by tone, pitch and pace without resorting to poorly done, mostly regional US, accents for characters in a different universe and time.
