This was very jarring going immediately from one book he narrated to one where he didn't. All the character voices I'd come to recognize were completely different (obviously) and I very quickly lost interest after struggling to follow along. I didn't know he re-recorded the later books, thanks for letting us know.
- dtparr 6y agoUnfortunately, Dotrice's recordings of the later books diverge so significantly from the first set that it's almost worse than a different person altogether. Character voices are drastically different, names are pronounced differently, etc.
- Zelphyr 6y agoThis is true. He was quite along in age by that point and was clearly having trouble. I'm sure it didn't help that he recorded A Feast for Crows at the same time as A Dance With Dragons and was probably pretty tired. I believe he set a world record for those sessions. Still, even in his advanced age by that point he was better than John Lee, in my opinion.
