listened to the tdir audio drama yesterday for midwinter... pretty good overall. didn't love some of the casting (why did the rider need to sound like dracula with a cold) and often felt that the sound design was overdoing it a bit but at least it did follow the story faithfully. also liked that it leaned in somewhat to the moral greyness of the light, I find the portrayal of both the light and the dark throughout the books as having a very 'end justifies the means' philosophy quite interesting. i'd give it 8/10 will most likely be listening again next year

#in regards to voice acting i thought merrimans actor did a great job he just didnt line up with how i had imagined him to sound #they did hawkin a little bit dirty with the acting imo... he sounded rather fumbling and i didnt think that fit #wills voice actor was cast well i guess not a stellar performance but he was 12 of course so quite good all things considered #as ive mentioned did not like the voice they gave the rider it just felt a bit ridiculous not to mention unnecessary #+ weird to give him a more 'foreign' accent #the script also felt a little clunky in places i dont mind taking some liberties with the dialogue to help with the audio drama format #but it ended up being pretty stiff in some places #this is making it sound like i hated everything about the audio drama sorry lol like i said overall pretty good #i enjoyed the little intro/outro song thought that worked well tone wise #also found it interesting how some scenes despite being ostensibly the same conjured different images in my mind from the book #tdir #personal tag
