Many thanks to Mark Nelson for reading the Moon Pool, by Abraham Merritt. Mark reads the novel flawlessly and his use of different voices is utterly convincing.

Thanks again,

Praise received for uruffianu (Greg W.) from our 'Thank a reader' feature:
Much praise and thanks to Greg W. for his tremendous reading of this great work by Knut Hamsun. I have read the book twice, and find this reading perfectly expresses the tone and beauty of the book (in translation of course), with sensitive attention to the nuances of the different characters and their manner of speaking. Thank you so much, Paul

Praise received for Monaxi (A LibriVox Volunteer) from our 'Thank a reader' feature:
I would like to thank reader: Forum name: Monaxi for

the song I Parthenos Simeron (Η Παρθένος Σήμερον) or Today the Virgin) in Christmas Carol Collection 2013.

It is an inspiration to me, specially the humility the singer has. I am a Greek person and I prefer this

version of the hymn than those I find on the youtube, basically because the singer sounds so humble.

Thank you very much.

All of Moaxi's recordings!

Praise received for beeber (Bruce Pirie) from our 'Thank a reader' feature:
Dear Bruce Pirie,

This “Thank You” is long overdue. Your LibriVox recordings have seen
me through a long illness as well as through the Covid years.
And I'm counting on books - written & audio - to get me through these
anxiety-provoking times.

I’ve become a big Balzac fan through you, so it was a treat to find
your newest, The Unknown Masterpiece, which is a treasure!
The selection of Canadian books were most enjoyable. Do I detect a
hint of Canadian in your voice when reading them?

My best,
Emily
Fairport NY

Praise received for MichelleHarris (MichelleHarris) from our 'Thank a reader' feature:
The Virginian by Owen Wister

Thank you so much for this great reading! I've wanted to read this book for years, but was frustrated with all the dialog in dialect, so never could make much headway and always quit in frustration. Finally, I realized that Librivox was the solution.

I became aware of this book when staying at the Occidental Hotel in Buffalo, Wyoming which is where Wister lived while writing The Virginian. And yes, I've been to Medicine Bow (which really isn't much better than Wister's description!)

Your rendition is quite fluid and your accents and inflections are perfect. So, thank you again.

Praise received for Bernard (Bernard) from our 'Thank a reader' feature:
Bonjour Monsieur,

Je vous connais depuis des mois à travers vos lectures des romans de La Comédie humaine d’Honoré de Ɓalzac. En réalité, je vous écoute tous les soirs, et vous ai entendu plusieurs fois dans votre lecture d’Illusions perdues, la Vieille fille, le Curé de Tours, Le Lys dans la vallée... je ne peux pas nommer tous les titres, je vous ai écouté lire et relire tant de titres.
Votre voix, votre sensibilité, votre cadence, votre humour, vos émois, votre capacité de mise en scène dans la sobriété et la justesse sont, pour moi, inégalés. Ah! Si seulement vous pouviez lire Splendeurs et misères des courtisanes! Vous combleriez mes attentes.
Quoi qu'il en soit : MERCI.

Bien respectueusement,

Colette

All of Bernard's recordings!
