I am also on a reread of the first book. I have the physical, digital, and audio versions but am definitely gravitating towards audio more often than not. Kramer/Reading narration is kind of like home for me as they also are on the audio version of a bunch of Sanderson books.

What I have always found interesting is that on first listen it seems like you’re in for a dry, monotone narration, but Kramer is surprisingly versatile.

I am audio book exclusively. I fell in love with Michael Kramers narration when I listened to mistborn so listening to WOT with him as a narrator is amazing.

My only audiobook complaint is that some pronunciations change from one book to the next. They are consistent within the book, but it's as if the narrators were corrected on pronunciation and changed it in later books. It also took me way too long to realize the difference between Domani and Damane both read as (Dah-mah-nee) because I had never seen them

Domani and Damane are one of my pet peeves with the audiobooks, but my biggest one is when Michael Kramers specifically says "Tuatha'wan" instead of "Tuatha'an" I guess that's just easier for him to say, but it grates my nerves so much. :laugh: But I do think he corrects himself eventually.

I'm hoping for some consistency in pronunciation with the Pike versions of the audiobooks!! Although my current pet peeve with her (and the show) is that Leane is for some reason pronounced "Lean-ah". Like, what?? Where does the a come from???
