Me + Richard Armitage 
It seems to be correct. There are more nominations listed on the Twitter account of Tavia Gilbert. Among them there’s Turn of the Screw / Emma Thompson for best female narrator, and then David Copperfield with Richard Armitage for Literary Fiction and Classics.

Usually there’s a press release posted on the web as the first step (or so it has been in past years) but I’m not finding it at the moment.

Seems I posted this while you’d already found Gilbert and added it to the post.

I loved Copperfield. I think it’s his best audio performance.

Audible Twitter RT’d the Gilbert tweet, too, so presumably that means it’s official. I am just wondering why Audible only # and @ tags Scarlett Johannsen and Armitage with congratulations. Maybe the other narrators are not on Twitter? Or not famous enough? In any case, delighted to see Armitage validated again with a nomination.

I think the two mentioned by Audible are the only two published by Audible themselves. The others are published by Harper Collins and Random House.

Well deserved! Copperfield was a great performance imo.

Although today I started self-medicating for work stress by listening to the lighter “Venetia” in the car.

That’s my favorite of the Heyer ones he did.

Sue, I do agree I find his work in “Venetia” delightful. I think it is my favorite of the Heyer novels,next I would say Sylvester.

Me too. “The convenient marriage” is my least favourite of the three, although I do enjoy it too.

my favorite is “The Convenient Marriage” . I do like “Venetia” and “Sylvester”. I probably would of like the other audiobooks that Mr. Richard Armitage has done, but they are not on regular cds. I hope one day Mr. Richard Armitage would read his all time favorite book. I know he said he read The Hobbit growing up and other books, but a book that he has read over a 100 times, knows what happens, knows all the characters name, etc. and the book is falling apart because he read it so much (something like that).

it’s true that a lot of them are a pain to obtain. Supposedly David Copperfield was one of his favorites, though.
