Lani Tupu has been busy narrating a series of books by author Candice Fox for Random House Australia. So thrilled was Candice with the narration that she sent Lani the following testimonial, which we felt was worthy of sharing here:
"It's a singular talent to have a compelling voice, to have the skill to manipulate what nature gives into something people want to listen to for hours at a time. It's something more profound again to have multiple voices, multiple streams of fictional consciousness, to read a story and give a distinct life to everyone in it. Lani Tupu stunned Farscape fans by breathing life into two characters as starkly different at Captain Crais and Pilot. But in my novels, he has to deal with dozens of characters in wildly varying situations, each more complex than the last.
How do you know what a fictional character on a printed page sounds like? You can't just guess. The only way what Lani has done works as well as it does is that he's studied each character in infinite detail - their motivation, their history, their place in the grand scheme. It's tempting to call it 'artistic genius' but I think that strips away how devoted Lani has had to be to achieve this. Lani's narration of the Bennett/Archer series isn't an accident, it's passion, commitment, and damn hard work. I'm eternally grateful to him and his team for all that they've done."
