Daniel Henning and AudioFile’s 2023 Best Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Horror Audiobooks
In Conversation with Robin Whitten on Behind the Mic
Narrator Daniel Henning joins AudioFile’s Robin Whitten to discuss his narration of T.J. Klune’s In the Lives of Puppets, one of AudioFile’s 2023 Best Sci-Fi, Fantasy & Horror Audiobooks. In the audiobook, Henning demonstrates perfect comedic timing and impressive vocal versatility in a sci-fi retelling of “Pinocchio.” It’s a laugh-out-loud and emotional audiobook that asks listeners to question what it means to be human. In this interview, Henning tells listeners about preparing to voice the characters, human and non-human, and the fun of bringing this queer Pinocchio retelling to life.
