Audiobook Genres I Specialize In

My narration work focuses on genres that benefit from sustained tension, clarity of narrative voice, and consistent character performance across long-form productions.

  • Thriller & Suspense — controlled pacing, tension without overstating, and clear character separation

  • Science Fiction & Speculative Fiction — grounded delivery for complex worlds, terminology, and concepts

  • Mystery & Crime — steady narrative flow with attention to procedural detail and tone

  • Character-Driven Literary Fiction — natural dialogue, emotional restraint, and continuity across chapters

  • Dark & Psychological Fiction — subtle shifts in tone and perspective without exaggeration

Audiobook Narration for Publishers & Authors

Professional audiobook narration by Shawn Rigby, offering both finished, production-ready audio and clean, professional raw recordings for in-house post-production.

I work primarily in long-form audiobook narration, with experience across thrillers, science fiction, and character-driven fiction. My approach emphasizes clear storytelling, grounded character work, and consistent pacing across chapters.

Depending on your production needs, I can deliver fully produced narration or carefully recorded raw audio that integrates smoothly into existing editing and mastering workflows—providing flexibility without compromising performance quality.

Who I Work With

I work with a range of clients across the audiobook production space, adapting to established workflows and production requirements as needed.

  • Audiobook publishers seeking reliable, production-ready narration

  • Production companies managing long-form audiobook projects

  • Rights holders and literary estates coordinating audiobook releases

  • Independent and traditionally published authors preparing titles for distribution

Whether you need fully produced narration or clean raw audio for in-house post-production, I aim to make the collaboration straightforward, dependable, and consistent from start to finish.
