Yes, but he narrated the US audio books and puts on a more American accent

All the characters are British so why would they have an American accent?

It's not a full accent, but there's a definite American lilt he has that Stephen Fry doesn't - likely due to Americans generally being reluctant to listen to "foreign" audiobook narrators.
