2013 Nomination (not yet selected): 

Jennifer Strange thought she was a fairly normal 15-year-old foundling indentured servant managing a magician's employment agency. Then came the prophecy of the last dragon's death. Now Jennifer's life is inextricably caught up in Maltcassian's fate. Subtle humor and gradual world-building combined with excellent narration make this an enjoyable and satisfying audiobook. -Colleen Beaupre
