I have a long commute to work and so I’ve listened to a lot of recorded books. Here are my two favorite narrators for audio books.
John McDonough, narrator of the Mitford series by Jan Karon.
At Home in Mitford
A Light in the Window
These High, Green Hills
Out to Canaan
A New Song
A Common Life
In This Mountain
Shepherd Abiding
Light from Heaven
Rob Inglis, narrator of J. R. R. Tolkien’s books The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy.
The Hobbit
Lord of the Rings
The Two Towers
The Return of the King
Both gentlemen are pleasant to listen to. They both develop unique voices for a large cast of characters, making it easier to follow their novels while driving.

John,
Thanks for mentioning the Mitford books. I’d never heard of them before, and having looked them up, I think a few tomes from that series would make a nice Christmas present for my wife.
She’s currently enjoying the Thrush Green series by Miss Read: it looks like the Mitford books come from the same genre.
