My Favorite Readers
With my particular favorites of the books they've read — though this may tell you more about the sorts of books I read than about their talent.
I do want to mention also that I've seen people complain about collaborative readings. It is true that you get varying quality throughout a book that way, but I don't mind generally. Hey, it is a free audiobook! And I've found some very good readers that way.
