The recordings of the His Dark Materials books by Philip Pullman and a full cast are uniformly excellent.

It would probably be a better playback experience if you just pick up a cheap iPod shuffle: http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/ipod?mco=MTM3NDY2NTg $40-$60 refurbished, and they would support resuming/bookmarking, be able to sync back to iTunes for resuming on computers/iPhones/whatever else.

Megera posted:I finished The Golden Compass last week. It had a full cast and everything, and I can't recommend it enough. No one droned on and on, I rarely had to go back and listen again due to spacing out, and I was pleasantly surprised that it was, in fact, MUCH better than the movie. I've heard the next two suck, so I won't bother. They don't, in fact. Get them.

In iTunes, you can set anything to "Remember Position." Audiobooks and podcasts do it automatically.

Prokhor posted:From all those could someone recommend a book they think I might like? If you liked Snow Crash, The Diamond Age is a great followup, and the audio version is well produced. Also echoing the More Information Than You Require praise a couple posts up.

I'd also highly recommend his series on the Punic Wars from a few years ago.

DrVenkman posted:So it seems that they're doing a new audio version of World War Z. I know Nathan Fillion has recorded a part for it, and it sounds like they're going to be revealing the names as the weeks go on. Hopefully it'll be unabridged this time. Perhaps they're just filling in the chapters they skipped last time. I can't imagine anyone doing better than Mark Hamill or Alan Alda, though some of the other chapters could certainly be redone.

What other audiobooks have full casts? The only one I can think of is His Dark Materials, which was also a pleasure to listen to.
