The issue

Petition to encourage Audible and WotC to hire Victor Bevine to record (rerecord) additional Legend of Drizzt novels for consistency and quality of product. 

The audio books in question are as follows;

  • Book 16 - Road of the Patriarch
  • Book 20 - The Orc King
  • Book 21 - The Pirate King
  • Book 22 - The Ghost King

Road of the Patriarch has been previously recorded by another narrator yet is not currently available on Audible. The other 3 books are all recorded by Mark Bramhall.

R.A. Salvatore's 'The Legend of Drizzt' fantasy saga from Wizards of the Coast is one of Dungeon & Dragons most popular book/audio series of all time. Near 35 years the saga now has over 40 entries, making it one of the longest running fantasy stories of all time.

Note; I understand the audio books are getting a refresh in the near future, I do not know if this release will include Victor working on these books in question, if not then this is a perfect opportunity.

It is a very common complaint that the series is not 'complete' by Victor. After listing to several thousand hours of audio then suddenly switch narrator, or to find a missing book, causes many fans to revert to written form or just straight up stop the series at that point. It can be very off-putting.

I have moderated a fan community on reddit for several years now and have noted the high regard fans have for Victors work, yet common confusion with the inconsistency in the audible collection. This appears to also be a common subject on Salvatore's and Bevine's official twitters, fan discord communities and many other dnd/forgotten realms related forums. 

Please note this is not an attack on other narrators work. This is about consistency of the series.

Example praise of Victors work;

Example complaints regarding missing books; 

The drive to make this petition was largely due to a suggestions/interest from Victor and R.A Salvatore themselves. Please expand the comments of this tweet.

I would also like to note (yet this is not a focus of this partition) other works that are directly related to the main saga, by R.A. Salvatore, which could also get the Victor Bevine treatment;

- The Stone of Tymora
