Looking for audiobook/podiobook favorites.

“Good plots” is kind of vague, but I’ve really enjoyed King’s “Dark Tower” series. It may be a bit more fantastical than you like, but they aren’t scary (they are suspenseful though). King considers them his magnum opus so if you’ve got lots of listening time on your hands, you might want to check them out. They aren’t voice acted, although the narrator does change his voice for the various characters.

You also might like to explore podcasts. There are litterally thousands of them on pretty much any subject you can think of. Many of them have superb production values and content despite being produced by amateurs and released for free. Just something worth exploring if you’re a fan of audiobooks.

Thank you! I’ve read the Dark Tower already though, and subscribe to about 16 daily podcasts.

By good plots I mean books that Flutherites liked and would heartily recommend to story lovers.

p.s. I love you is a great girly/romance book. The narrator was fantastic.

I’ve really enjoyed Jim Dale’s readings of the Harry Potter books and The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. I recently finished listening to Villete, by Charlotte Bronte. It was read by Davina Porter and it took a while for me to get used to her, but I really enjoyed the story. I don’t know if you are into Alice Sebold, but I picked up The Almost Moon on a whim and it was engrossing, although slightly depressing for the long drive I was on. Also, Stephen Colbert’s I Am America, And So Can You is pretty entertaining. Apparently you like podcasts (I do too) I really loved Lars Brownworth’s 12 Byzantine Rulers. It was excellent. Oooh, also, BBC has put out some excellent multiple voice readings if you haven’t checked them out already.

I’ve got about 4 audiobooks right now that I want to get through at work/the gym. Hopefully, as I finish them I’ll remember to report back on the quality! Good luck on your search!
