Yes, for Librivox, which is a community where anyone can record books in the public domain. The copyright for Flight of the Heron runs out January 1, 2021. : )
Actually I've recorded for Librivox before, so if you want to listen to me reading the autobiography of Peter Kropotkin (19th century Russian anarchist) you can do so here and here. It's about 17 hours long. Listening to the reading now, I think it's...okay? Like, not my best work, but it's okay.
Flight of the Heron is going to be SO MUCH better, I can tell. I feel like I was made to read that book, at least Keith's POV. He is delightful, and I love those long convoluted old-fashioned sentences.
I think I would really enjoy recording Sutcliff as well (there are some similarities in style) but alas, her work won't be public domain for a long time.
