Episode 157 - A Chat with AudioBook Narrator Simon Vance

Some highlights in this episode: Emily and Chris have kicked off their reading for Sue Jackson’s Big Book Summer reading challenge! Both Book Cougars are starting off with re-reads: Chris is re-reading THE HISTORIAN by Elizabeth Kostova and Emily is reading Kent Haruf’s Prairie series. She’s already re-read the first novel, PLAINSONG, and is now into EVENTIDE. In biblio adventures, we had a great time at Soho Press’s dinner celebrating two of their authors: Ramona Emerson (SHUTTER, coming out in August) and Marcie Rendon (SINISTER GRAVES, the third book in the Sue Grafton Award-nominated crime series set in the 1970s in the Red River Valley and featuring 19-year-old Cash Blackbear, an Ojibwe woman (pubbing in October). The event was held at Chef Sherry Pocknett’s world-famous Sly Fox Den Too indigenous restaurant in Charlestown, Rhode Island. We had the great privilege of talking with award winning, legendary audiobook narrator SIMON VANCE. As we say in his introduction, if you don’t know Simon’s name, if you’re an audiobook listener, chances are good that you’ know his voice. Happy Listening! P.S.
