The Gamers Arms

As an aside to the currently reading thread, do we have any Audible subscribers here? I've been amassing credits for a few months now and am consistently uninspired by the selection on offer, not aided by Amazon's/Audible's really poor interface which never seems to recommend anything I would actually like and only suggests the latest amateur rubbish.

So has anyone listened to anything recently they'd recommend?

The Sherlock Holmes stories narrated by Stephen Fry are rather good, if you are a fan of them.

I tend just to abuse their "come back again and have another trial!" thing they send me every year.

I fairly enjoyed the two Fry books on Greek mythology though I did zone out a few times but thats more my issue any time I try and listen to an audiobook more than the content of that book. Enjoyed Dogs of War by Adrian Tchaikovsky which I listened to after reading it and I think it's better as an audiobook. Listened to one of the Bobiverse books by Dennis E Taylor which was good but just on the right side of the knife edge of being annoying but I could see it going either way depending on the listener.

This reminds me the new Bobiverse book just came out!

Was just about to make this thread when I noticed that I'd already made it previously!

Same question again. My Audible credits have built up because I bought 3 months on the mega cheap return deal and I am all out of ideas for what to listen to next.

Some decent sci fi or thought provoking general fiction would be good.

I don't remember whether or not I picked up Dogs of War off the back of your recommendation, Alan, but I did listen to the audio book for that a couple of years ago and thought it was very well done.
