Type of Enhancement

Web Interface/Frontend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

The narrator navigation on the left bar allows us to rename narrators but doesn't allow to browse by narrator. It'd be great to have the ability to add in narrator bios, portraits (eventually) but generally at least to view all books that that narrator has narrated.

Why would this be helpful?

Sometimes I just finished listening to a specific series from one narrator and I want more of the same because that voice jives with my mood.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

Would look similar to the by-author view, but by narrator. - showing all books, then series

Audiobookshelf Server Version

v2.25.1

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

I was looking at GUID/narrators and wanted something that looks like GUID/bookshelf/authors

You can click and filter the library by narrator from the narrators page. Narrator profile page is mentioned here https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf/issues/1139 and I think elsewhere but it is unlikely since we don't have a source for narrator info.
