Author Information

"Susan Wakeford Angard was in Iran producing a TV commercial package for Boeing Aircraft in September 1978 and was an eyewitness to the first harrowing days of Khomeini's Revolutionary Guard's bloody takeover. Her vivid memories compelled her to write her first series of novels, The Persian Glories Saga trilogy. Susan has previously written for an episodic CBS network TV series, Hawaii Five O, and attended the UCLA Writers' Program. Gabrielle de Cuir, award-winning narrator, has narrated over three hundred titles and specializes in fantasy, humor, and titles requiring extensive foreign language and accent skills. She was a cowinner of the Audie Award for best narration in 2011 and a three-time finalist for the Audie and has garnered six AudioFile Earphones Awards. Her ""velvet touch"" as an actor's director has earned her a special place in the audiobook world as the foremost producer for bestselling authors and celebrities. Stefan Rudnicki is an award winning audiobook narrator, director and producer. He was born in Poland and now resides in Studio City, California. He has narrated more than three hundred audiobooks and has participated in over a thousand as a writer, producer, or director. He is a recipient of multiple Audie Awards and AudioFile Earphones Awards as well as a Grammy Award, a Bram Stoker Award, and a Ray Bradbury Award. He received AudioFile's award for 2008 Best Voice in Science Fiction and Fantasy. Along with a cast of other narrators, Rudnicki has read a number of Orson Scott Card's best-selling science fiction novels. He worked extensively with many other science fiction authors, including David Weber and Ben Bova. In reviewing the twentieth anniversary edition audiobook of Card's Ender's Game, Publishers Weekly stated, Rudnicki, with his lulling, sonorous voice, does a fine job articulating Ender's inner struggle between the kind, peaceful boy he wants to be and the savage, violent actions he is frequently forced to take. Rudnicki is also a stage actor and director."
