I'm thinking of downloading it... is the narrator Roy Dotrice any good? I listened to a sample of the prologue and he did different voices, but I want to get someone else's impression on it.

I'm no friend of Dotrice's interpretation of many of the characters. the sex scene between dany and drogo is especially gruesome. I did get used to him though, and some people over at ran's board even seem to worship him Wink

Alright, I'll pick something else then Laughing I have 2 free downloads on audible.com and I want to make sure I get a good narrator.

In that case, try some of the discrorld books. Both of Pratchett's regular narrators are excellent: Stephen Briggs and Nigel Planer
