Man I wish I could enjoy Wheaton’s narration style but after trying to listen to John Scalzi’s The Collapsing Empire and hearing every single character given the same tone deaf voice (literally tone deaf: not like saying racist things but rather had the same sarcastic and smug tone of voice for everyone irrespective of character descriptions or even explicit tones given like “she said morosely”) I refuse to buy another book he has narrated.
On the topic of Will Wheaton narrating audiobooks, do I understand correctly that the version of The Martian narrated by R.C. Bray is no longer available to purchase on Audible and is now replaced by one done by Wheaton?

Wild that they’d replace an excellent voice actor with a incredibly mediocre one.
But Wil is famous so …
It seems that AI audiobooks are not for you.
Definitely not. But what does that have anything to do with Wil’s awful narration?
Their narration can be fairly bland from what I’ve heard.
I don’t like audiobooks, so that’s second hand.
