A really cool (and quite rare) aspect of The Stolguard Incident audiobook is that @walker and @CARLA⚡️ perform full duet narration.
In most dual-narrated audiobooks, the male narrator reads all male point-of-view sections, including any female dialog that occurs in them. And vice versa: the female narrator reads everything, including all male lines, in the female POV sections.
A harder subset is duet narration, where the male narrator reads every male dialog line, and the female narrator reads every female dialog line, while one of them reads the narration for the section depending on which POV it is in. This makes it feel more immersive, realistic, and well-acted.
I initially assumed we would just do standard dual narration, though I brought up duet as an option. The reason duet narration is not more popular is because it is far more complex to produce. But it was Walker and Carla who convinced me, since in their unique case they were able to do duet narration rather efficiently (the narrators are married, already do skits together, won’t have the scheduling issues of nonlocal narrator teams, and thus can perform live duet recordings together).
The result is truly special, and it’s thanks to Walker and Carla. Can’t picture the audio version of the story any other way.
