A Court Of Thorns and Roses (Audiobook)
Austin Tackett for Rhysand
Rhysand (pronounced "Ree-sand"), male lead role.
The High Lord of the Night Court. Beautiful and clever with a penchant for cruelty, Rhysand maintains a great deal of power because he serves Amarantha. Rhysand makes no attempt to hide his hatred of humans. He is a keen manipulator who knows how to play power games in Prythian (prith-ee-an). Though at first he seems like the novel’s villain, his true motivation is a deep desire to protect his people.
I think a Scottish or British accent could be a plus here, or someone who can sound both smug and regal. Open to different interpretations.

(mock hurt) “Rhysand? Come now, Tamlin. I don’t see you for forty-nine years, and you start calling me Rhysand? Only my prisoners and my enemies call me that.”
“I remember you. It seems like you ignored my warning to stay out of trouble.” (Said almost flirty) *He turns to Tamlin* “Who, pray tell, is your guest?”
(Threatening) “You draw blood from me, Lucien, and you’ll learn how quickly Amarantha’s whore can make the entire Autumn Court bleed. Especially its darling Lady.”
While I appreciate the attempt at the Scottish, it isn't quite the take I'm looking for with this role, however I'd be interested to hear your take on Lucian with your natural voice! :)
