New video series turns audiobook narrators into tastemakers, recommending standout performances by their peers

You know those staff pick shelves you love at indie bookstores? We wondered, what would the audiobook version look like?” - Daniel Henning

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, September 22, 2026 /EINPresswire / -- AudiobookRush has launched Narrator Picks, a new series of short videos in which working audiobook narrators recommend an audiobook they love, with one rule: they had no hand in making it.

The first five Picks feature Helen Laser, Johnny Heller, Julio Maxwell, Ann Richardson, and Art Brown. Their recommendations range from Severance by Ling Ma, narrated by Nancy Wu, to Nick Offerman's performance of Mark Twain's The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.

AudiobookRush founder and New York Times bestselling audiobook narrator Daniel Henning likens the series to the staff-pick shelves at independent bookstores.“You know those staff pick shelves you love at indie bookstores? We wondered, what would the audiobook version look like? So we asked the people who know storytelling from the inside out: audiobook narrators.”

Narrator Picks is designed to bring a distinctly human voice to audiobook discovery. Rather than an algorithm, sales ranking, or recommendation from someone involved with a production, each Pick lets one storyteller champion the work of another.

“It's about discovery. It's about celebrating other artists' work,” Henning says in the video introducing Narrator Picks.“And most of all, it's a new way to discover your next great listen.”

Narrators are not compensated for their recommendations, and Narrator Picks are not sponsored content. Each recommendation appears on AudiobookRush with the narrator's video and a full transcript and is also available through the AudiobookRush YouTube channel.

Additional Narrator Picks are forthcoming.
