So if you're a member and own this particular version of the Kindle book, you can either pay $6.95 for the James Anderson Foster narration (20.7 hrs) or $1.99 for the Alan Munro narration (25.1 hrs). Other variations are also a probability.

Since I already own this audiobook, I won't be getting the $1.99 version.
It's annoying. Narrators matter. Why Amazon wants to withhold the info about which audio versions link to which Kindle versions makes no sense at all. Why make that a perk of active membership? I can't imagine that's what gets someone to maintain their membership, so all they're doing is irritating people and losing sales - so presumably those are sales they don't really want to make anyway.
