About Us

Big Scary Corporation is anything but--we're a small Burlington, ON-based startup founded by owner Ryan van Barneveld in 2009. ("Fake it til' ya make it", right?) We've always pushed the boundaries of technology and entertainment; now, we're focusing on making our mark on the audiobook world.

Our publishing imprint Novel Audio brings compelling new audiobooks to life using narrators and studios from all over the world. Author's Republic, our innovative distribution platform, offers the world's most extensive audiobook distribution network to everyone from major publishers to indie authors with a single title. We're obsessed with how technology can make publishing and audiobooks better. COO Taylor Campbell leads the charge towards victory.
