Nea Culpa
Forgive me fandom, for I am about to sin. John Barrowman is a sexy, sexy man and a sparkling performer... and he can't read audiobooks worth a damn.
I'm trying to get into Another Life, a job already made difficult by the sucktastic writing - all staccato subject-verb-predicate sentences that are only a step or two above Dick and Jane in complexity - and John just isn't helping. He's not trying to do voices, he's only occassionaly modulating his tone... it's a not-very-good book read not-very well.
That my most recent audio comparisons are David doing the Who tie ins (he always goes to town on the voices: Stone Rose is another wimp plot but it's worth it just to hear what that man does with his vocal cords), the Big Finish full audios, and Stephen Fry making a feast out of Harry Potter does not help.
Sorry, John, just not your strong suit. I give up.
