I love audiobooks. For me, they bring stories to life in a way movies and TV shows can’t.

Every author wants to see at least one of their novels brought to life as a movie or a streaming series, but, honestly, it’s not nirvana. Movies and series are such vastly different formats that they demand changes to the content. Sometimes, that’s for the better, but not always.

Hugh Howey’s Wool was adapted to the Apple TV hit series Silo. Fans of the book, like myself, watched with intense interest as various differences unfolded. For the most part, the screenwriters were faithful to the source material, but there were a few headscratchers that were added simply to amp up the sense of mystery and keep the tension rolling from one episode to the next.

And so we come to audiobooks. A good narrator can bring a story to life in ways even the author only glimpsed at with the pacing and emotion they bring to the story.

If you’re looking for a great audiobook to listen to this month, check out Retrograde!
