Romantic Comedy Duo: two novels of comic romance, read by the author

1 audiobook reviewed

Who is Jay Trott?

Duo is the plainest label available, and it does the job: a pair of novels, bundled and offered as a single listen. Romantic Comedy Duo makes no attempt at mystique, which is faintly reassuring in a genre that so often oversells itself before the first page.

Jay Trott appears on our fiction and romance shelves through that pairing, and reads it personally. Author narration is a distinctive choice in comic writing, where timing is half the craft. A joke lands or dies on the pause before it, and nobody knows where those pauses belong better than whoever wrote the line.

That is what the catalogue supports, and we leave it there.

Jay Trott in audiobooks

Twenty-one hours for two novels is a full and unhurried helping of comic romance, the sort of running time that lets a cast be lived with rather than merely met in passing.

No listener verdicts are on the record yet, so the title comes to you unscored and unmediated. In practice that makes the sample the only sensible test, and with author narration a sample tells you a great deal very quickly: within a few minutes you will know whether this is a comic voice you want in your ear for the best part of a day.

The pairing is on the page below whenever you would like to try it.
