2013 Nomination (not yet selected): 

The story of Cleopatra Selene, daughter of the famed monarch, is brilliantly delivered in this stunning audio. The narrator is pitch perfect and the production has some lovely touches including the music that segments the novel is pomp with a touch of ominous danger. The is one of the best listens I have had in a long time. This is produced by Oasis Audio - one that I had not heard of prior to this.  Joan Kindig
