Ruins of the Galaxy: Narrator Change Announced

Updated: Mar 30, 2023


As many of you have already noticed, the narrator listed for Ruins of the Galaxy Book Book 6, Imminent Failure, has been changed from R.C. Bray to Christopher Ryan Grant.


A decision was made to cut Mr. Bray's work load significantly in a wholistic effort to care for his voice and to accommodate the sizeable backlog pressure he faced following vocal treatment and recovery. As a result, Podium Audio needed to recast some of their commitments.


Podium has prioritized Ruins of the Earth and will keep Mr. Bray on those remaining books but opted to recast Mr. Grant for the remainder of the Ruins of the Galaxy titles. If you're not familiar with him, he’s done quite well on mil sci-fi for Podium audiobooks, including works by Jason Anspach and Nick Cole.


We hope you will appreciate the need to lighten Mr. Bray's load and to get these audiobooks to listeners without more delays.


Thanks for your understanding.


Best,


Christopher

Christopher Ryan Grant is an underrated audiobook reader. He is extremely talented, and his work on Forgotten Ruin is phenomenal! Podium made an excellent choice!

I greatly enjoy the escapism and humour of these books. As a disabled veteran in constant pain, the humour in particular makes me laugh out loud and brightens my day. For which I am very greatful.

That the author's biography is as sparsely covered, as any I've seen. Makes me wonder. But, I'll leave it at that.

I had no idea that RC Bray had had surgery. I wish him a speedy and permanent recovery. He reads like no other. Except perhaps Christopher Walken. But Christopher Walken is in a whole universe of his own.

I'm afraid that in my opinion, the publishers dropped the ball, when they decided to substitute

another voice actor for RC Bray. Each of these…

Definitely missing RC but had no idea he had surgery or anything like that! I just discovered during my new listen to ROTE that they changed the narrator! Took me a minute to find this post but everything makes sense now and I wish him a speedy recovery and thank podium for caring about their narrators! Thank you for everything and amazing books!!

I am missing RC in ROTG. Ray creates the characters, every character has a unique voice that you know who is talking without the need to have “so and so said” which makes the story flow. I am finding now that dialogue is spoken and I have to wait to see who actually is the character was that said it.

Glad to know that Podium actually considers the well-being of their narrators.
