I listened to about half the In Death books a few years ago, but I can't stand the way she makes Roarke sound like the Lucky Charms leprechaun, McNab as a surfer dude, or her voices for Leanardo and a few others. She also emphasizes words in some sentences that are just odd choices to emphasize IMO.
I do think overall she's a fairly good narrator, just not for me.
I did like the guy who narrated NR's
Northern Lights. There have been other audio books I've enjoyed as well. I just think overall I'm better off reading books myself rather than listening.
