Acerca de Alan Cumming
"El actor escocés Alan Cumming ha deslumbrado al público en el escenario y en la pantalla durante años, pero con su energía sin límites y su brogue brillante, era un narrador natural de audiolibros. Sólo hay que escuchar su narración de sus propias memorias, Not My Father’s Son, para comprender el apasionante atractivo. (Cumming ganó dos premios Audie por eso, por Mejor Autobiografía/Memoria y por Narración del Autor, y fue nombrado uno de los Mejores Libros del Año de Audible en 2014).
El actor ganador del premio Ton ha llevado todas sus formidables habilidades a Sherlock Holmes, Hans Christian Anderson, and Scott Westerfeld’s Leviathon series. Un actor increíblemente versátil, Cumming también se ha destacado en la narración de libros infantiles, ganando un Audie en 2011 para r Zorgamazoo, el estrafalario, rimado y rítmico cuento de Katrina y Morty the Zor. Incluso ha abordado Macbeth dos veces, en una dramatización de la obra original Macbeth y en Macbeth, A Novel, una reimaginación (en forma de novela) del famoso drama del bardo, escrito por dos veteranos autores de misterio. El actor dinámico, entusiasmado con la experiencia, dijo: “Macbethes una gran obra para un actor escocés porque es la única obra de Shakespeare que debe ser hablada con acento escocés. . . . El lenguaje es muy gutural. Se trata de un paisaje que tú entiendes. . . . Conozco todos los nombres de todos los lugares ".
Cumming sigue ocupado actuando, y habiendo hecho olas con sus dos carreras de Broadway como maestro de ceremonias en Cabaret (en 1998 y 2014)-lo ha llevado al siguiente nivel y ha abierto su propio club en la ciudad de Nueva York.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

In this full-length novel written exclusively for audio, authors A. J. Hartley and David Hewson rethink literature’s most infamous married couple, grounding them in a medieval Scotland whose military and political upheavals are as stark and dramatic as the landscape in which they are played.
