I just recently got into audiobooks. They're great for the morning/evening commute. Makes being stuck in traffic much more tolerable. I started with Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy read by Stephen Fry, which was really entertaining. I started The Road, and I'm almost done it. I wanted to "read" the book before the movie was released. It's really depressing, but I don't mind. I also have Fight Club queued up, and also Isaac Asimov's Foundation trilogy. I've downloaded a few other Asimov audiobooks and I've been really disappointed in the quality of the audio. I guess they were ripped from old cassette tapes and never remastered. Apparently, though, the Foundation trilogy has been re-released so it sounds really good from what I can tell, just skimming through it. I personally can't stand ones that are dramatized. I got a LOTR one and deleted it immediately. Another book I own but could never get around to finish reading was The Dispossessed, but the audiobook version was also dramatized. Ugh. I plan on getting some William Gibson books next. God drat, it's way more fun to listen to audiobooks in your car rather than music.
