Incredible storytelling with the nuance of humanity.
AUDIOBOOK DEMOS
From fun, quirky YA to dozens of characters in a Romantasy, there’s no greater joy than discovering your characters together and giving breath to the voices that make them live.
I also narrate spicy audiobooks under a pseudonym!

ABOUT THE NARRATOR
I’m Kristyna Zaharek, an audiobook narrator and voice actor with a lifelong love affair with words.
From sneaking novels under the covers as a kid to wandering the world with a suitcase and a book in hand, stories have always been my compass. That passion eventually pulled me behind the microphone, where I stopped simply reading and started breathing life into characters—inviting listeners not just to hear a story, but to feel it.
My voice is textured, magnetic, and deliciously versatile—able to charm as a sly, sharp-tongued heroine, whisper heart-stopping vulnerability, or drop low and dangerous when the scene demands it. I’m drawn to rebellious characters with grit and wit, the kind who bite back but still carry tenderness beneath the armor. Every narration I take on is a dance between playfulness and power, pulling listeners along for the ride.
Off-mic, I’m equal parts dreamer and troublemaker: wrangling my cats, chasing new passport stamps, and hunting for the next story worth losing sleep over. I believe books are magic, audiobooks even more so, and I’m here to keep that magic alive—sass, spark, and all.

CREATIVE PROCESS & FAQ
-
We start with you and your story. On Zoom, we’ll talk through the heart of your book—characters, tone, pacing, tricky names, even the mood you want your listeners to feel. Then I dive in: marking scripts, mapping voices, and making sure every choice honors your words. You can be as involved as you like, whether that’s hands-on in live previews or completely hands-off while I prep behind the scenes.

This is where the magic happens. In my silent, enchanted-forest studio, I bring your world to life—line by line, chapter by chapter. You’re welcome to join live sessions, listen in, and even moderate if you’d like. Some clients love being part of the process, others prefer to sit back and relax while I take care of everything. Either way, you’ll know your story is in good hands (and an even better voice).
-
Once the narration is complete, the files head to my engineer for editing, proofing, and mastering. What comes back is a clean, beautiful audiobook that meets industry standards and is ready for upload. If you’re an indie author, I’ll even help spread the word with social promos and review codes to build excitement around your launch.
