FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Screen and Stage Actor Aryn Mello Pryor to Narrate Audiobook Edition of Lily Starling and the Voyage of the Salamander
PITTSBURGH, PA - Outpost Books is pleased to announce that screen and stage actor Aryn Mello Pryor has been cast as the narrator for the audiobook edition of Lily Starling and the Voyage of the Salamander, written by Christian Hurst. The audiobook is scheduled for release on Audible later in 2026.
Based in New York, Pryor is a rising talent with experience spanning stage, screen, and voice performance. Known for their emotional range and grounded delivery, Pryor brings a character-driven approach well suited to the novel's themes of identity, choice, and survival.
Lily Starling and the Voyage of the Salamander follows a young woman who awakens in an unfamiliar city with no memory of her past-only to learn she is a soldier displaced from the future. Taken aboard the starship Salamander on a mission to prevent a looming war, Lily must uncover who she is before others decide for her.
"We feel extremely fortunate to be working with Aryn," said Hurst. "Their performance brings a grounded emotional clarity to Lily Starling and the Voyage of the Salamander that aligns perfectly with the heart of the story."
The audiobook release will mark the first audio adaptation in the Lily Starling series, which has built a growing readership in independent bookstores and digital formats.
Additional details, including a release date and sample audio, will be announced closer to launch.
