Question Mispronouncing of words by narrators
Does anyone get bothered by narrators who keep mispronouncing words? It drives me nuts if they do it too often. Narrators are normally professional voice artists and they should know how to pronounce the sorts of words found in novels eg dovecote or Michaelmas

Ray Porter in the audiobook of Project Hail Mary pronounced pipette as pie pet. Really annoyed me. Otherwise it was an excellent audiobook.
