Voice of an…

Edited: After consulting with various folk around the world, a decision has been reached and an offer as been made, so I’m removing the audiofile submissions

I’m going to post this URL in various places hoping people pick up and respond.

I am auditioning for audiobook narrators for my latest novel. I have received a total of 32 submissions which I have quickly reduced to six five favourites. My problem is each of the Favourite Five has different qualities and I’m finding it difficult to choose between them.

Would you please be able to listen to all five (they’re reading the same passages) and give me your views and maybe a score out of five?

I have put links to the five audio files below. You can download and listen to them in your own location (right click and select download), or you can just click on them to listen on the website, that’s totally up to you. For clarification, the narrator is the protagonist, a 28yo multilingual female who can pass easily for an American.
